We really need to stop calling this kind of thing 'backwards compatibility' because it isn't. There are bespoke PS5 games that you have to purchase on PS5 and can only play on PS5. It's a port. Backwards compatibility means a system is compatible with the same media from an older system, which PS5 is only truly backward compatible with PS4.
💯 percent. Thought the same thing. This is not backwards compatible. This is just a port. The problems from the previous games with the same problems are things ports have ALL THE TIME. Backwards compatible is me taking my ps2 disc and putting it in my ps5. That is backwards compatible with the ps2. Idk if devs know what backwards compatible means? 😂
They could give u free download maybe if u insert the disc, but simply being able to put ps1,2&3 discs in an expect them to play off the disc is over. Its a hardware thing
Being able to flip the controls around is a solid feature I think. Its actually surprising just how many action games on the PS2 have the horizontal camera inverted and there is no way to change it, its weird because I somehow just don't really remember it being a common thing at all, but it's actually borderline the standard camera controls its so ubiquitous. Will definitely make some of those old games a lot more approachable for people who didn't necessarily grow up on them I think
I'm SO GRATEFUL for sly release. I dont have my old consoles anymore and im sick of paying for Playstations streaming service to play the collection, can't wait for 2&3 🙏
I wouldn't get your hopes up with getting Hit and run as one of the emulated titles since that game is in licensing hell, but on a lighter note we could very well see the other 2 Sly games so at least you got something, I'm more so hoping for some old Sonic games to get added since theres still quite a few that are in desperate need of some sort of rerelease
This week Gamestop had a sale where you could get 4 games under $10 for $20, I ended up getting 3 PS4 games as well as a copy of Wild Arms 3 because there was nothing better for me to get. Until this year I've only owned the original PlayStation and didn't buy a PS4 but rather was given one by my manager after she got a PlayStation 5 for Christmas. This really made me want to get a PS2 even more to try it out, as so many great games are still stuck on that system.
I platinumed clone wars it was pretty mindless but had a good time with it. The story was actually pretty cool and it was like a prototype for battlefront. As a huge trophy hunter I cant wait to dive into sly and tomb raider and all these other classics getting trophies
To add to this, I believe this option is turned off by default on the PS4 versions. From what I understand, if you enable them on PS4 it causes performance issues and instability. It's not an issue on PS5, so they are enabled by default. The decision to include the enhancement option in the menu for both versions is likely for feature parity reasons.
@retrorebound8887 Turning enhancements off also improves performance. You use save states still though. Also Clone Wars is the only one which uprenders to 1440p. Sly Racoon and Tomb Raider Legends uprendering isn't working correctly.
Found you from your “PS Vita in 2024” video, love your stuff so far! I was on the fence about these ports because of how awful Ape Escape on PS5 was. A few of the already-ported games have really bad texture glitches. The “new” games look more promising though, looking forward to trying them.
I recommend everyone use the classic arcade filter, it makes the games look sooo much better. I own Clone Wars on both the series x and ps5 and the performance is poor on both.
I think the pricing is about prestige. Tomb Raider Legend is the iconic to the point that regardless people like me will pay $20 for it. You can put ridiculous amount of effort into Clone Wars game but nope, aint no way u can convince me to buy that at $20
I finished Rift Apart a few weeks ago and I've been itching to play the original Ratchet PS2 games (never played them back in the day). Really hope they add them all soon!
I actually wouldn’t mind the original version of Yakuza 2 being added, I always wanted to play that back in 2008, even before Yakuza Kiwami 2 came out but I never got the chance and now that Kiwami 2 is my favourite in the franchise, I really want to play the original version of Yakuza 2
PS2 Yakuza games have their own charm! There's actually a lot I prefer about them to Kiwami, especially with 2 removing some locations. I hope they add em too, everyone needs to experience the English dub for Y1 haha
8:52 "Enhancements" is the option to rewind. It's off by default on PS4 (you can still turn it on) since having the rewind function available affects the emulation's framerate. About trophies, it's a big sell for me. It adds something that is not something I can easily get with emulators, which is achievements that are officially tied to my account. It also adds more to do with the game than just playing it.
I always wondered why the older titles used inverted controls by default. dont remember it bugging me back in the day but now it drives me a little crazy haha
Can't wait for all the people who call him an Xbox fanboy to completely ignore this video like they ignore anything and everything positive he's said about PlayStation in the past
When I bought The Clone Wars I was initially dissapointed there wasn't much Jedi combat but it slowly became one of my favorite Star Wars games of the era. Excellent unique combat for sure.
1:43 when I heard Toy Story 2 now has trophy support, I went to go and buy it for my PS5 only to see it was free? I don’t pay for any of the PlayStation subscriptions, but I bought it digitally on the PS3 a few back, so I wonder if that’s why. Can anyone else let me know if it’s free for them?
There's so many PS2 games I missed and would like to play again. I honestly would not mind just getting them as they were when they released. That's what it would look like if I went and bought it on eBay anyway. The save state and rewind feature is a game changer. No more having to restart at your last save on your memory card. It's like Edge of Tomorrow and Ground Hog Day. Just keeping rewinding until you get it right. Why waste time making a game look slightly better when you could have used that time to release more games. I think the more games the better, at least with legacy titles.
It’s ridiculous that it took 30 years for rewind features to become available when games like Tekken, Virtua Fighter and especially Gran Turismo were displaying replay footage on the PS1/Saturn. All this time the framework was there and no one thought to use it for gameplay.
It’s good that Sony is finally adding any significant number of PS2 titles to their premium tier but I feel like there should be some kind of case for false marketing on their part up until this point. Many people paid for premium when Sony first introduced the new tier system expecting PS2 games they didn’t really get for years (and no, I don’t think PS4 remasters of PS2 games count as much as Sony probably think they do). I also don’t think passing the blame on supposedly foolish early adopters who trusted Sony to give them a robust service should give them a pass. They knew the capabilities and state of their PS2 emulation the entire time. Selling this service the way they have is incredibly scummy.
Glad that Tomb Raider came out but really bummed out that it's kinda the worst port of the three and also being the most expensive.😞 Still gonna play it and go for the trophies but sucks it's very meh looking.
It may be more likely that X-Men Legends appears on Game Pass first. It was developed by Raven Software and published by Activision, both of which are now owned by Xbox
Backward compatibility means that you can play your allready bought old collection of games with your new gen console. Matty should know better. People would rather pay for remakes/remasters than pay again for outdated looking games they already possibly own.
As many people that like these games, I have the ps3 sly Cooper collection. I have been hoping to play the discs, or import the disc to my ps5, the way ps4 discs, and get a minor upgrade, and add ons. I can play my ps3 console, with the ps5 controller ( I have a video on my channel, playing some).
I’m so glad I got a series x instead of a ps5. REAL backwards compatibility and if you can’t find it on back compat, then you’ll be able to emulate it on dev mode. You can play any ps2 game on Xbox but not on PlayStation anymore, it’s sad
@@TheHudsonPhoenix The EU one has better voice acting and the translation is more faithful to the Japanese version. At the end of the day though it doesn't matter that much, I just want it work properly.
Was wondering if you'd be down to discuss Final Fantasy Tactics any time soon since there have been lots of talk about that game on Twitter lately because it's been unofficially confirmed to be getting a remaster soon.
I'll be buying Sly 1 instantly because its just so much easier than having to set up my ps3 again and play the Sly Collection 😂 Here's to hoping that they port the rest of the franchise soon 🙌
its kind of insane that you cant select 4:3 or widescreen and widescreen is being forced in some games I know that probably some games had an anamorphic option on PS2 and will attempt to scale the hud properly for 16:9 but you should still have the option to play it in 4:3.
They are probably going with what publishers are willing to license out and add trophies to. This is not just a Sony initiative since it depends on the devs. It's unlike Xbox where they have no input from devs and pubs besides getting permission
the enhancements tab seems to be more useful on the ps4 versions of the games, It is off by default on those versions and when turned on has noticeable frame drops and other issues from the videos I have seen but have not checked out those versions myself, I've also heard the ps4 has been one of the issues with getting their ps2 emulator up and working consistently with many games running fine on ps5 but having issues on ps4.
LEGO Star Wars 2 on PSP was an interesting decision. But how about LEGO Star Wars 1 & 2 on PS2? Also, out of all of these announced games, I'm the most excited for Sly Cooper and Daxter. Would be great if we also saw the original Ratchet & Clank and Jak & Daxter on PS2 as well, since the reboot of Ratchet & Clank is a completely different experience and the PS4 remasters of the Jak & Daxter series suck!
I'm gonna need Def Jam FFNY, Scarface, Godfather, True Crime, GTA LCS and GTA VCS. The Getaway and The Getaway black monday. Need for Speed Underground 2, Most Wanted, and Carbon. Sony better find a way to get them all playable.
Alot of those are not gonna happen due to insane license issues but I just play those on my phone with a ps2 emulator since sadly they won't come to ps5
Yeah like the other commentors have said this isn't backwards compatibility, this is merely streaming. And if I'm not mistaken most of the titles you can't even download that are worth a shit.
Games I'd love LOVE LOVE to see get in on this trend. -Tony Hawk's Underground 1+2 -Nicktoons Unite and it's sequels and while we're at it the original version of Battle For Bikini Bottom -All the classic Lego Games but specifically Indiana Jones -Bringing back the GTA PS2 games would be a real consumer friendly move after the dogshit replacement failed
Hi ya Matty, i think we should eventually stop calling this and what xbox does backwards compatibilty because it's not. They are emulations and for xbox, they are legitimate ports. They all through recertification which objectively makes them not "backwards compatible"
You know we is Gamers need to just stop being so picky when companies are actually trying to do something we wanted. I'm in the minority I know this but still I'm so happy to be playing these games again and as a kid I never got to experience half of the lineup the PS2 even had. I'm growing bored of modern gaming and all the bells and whistles added to each new installment and going back and playing the Clone Wars was so much fun. I remember playing that game so much more originally then I did Battlefront 1 until I got Battlefront 2. And the trophies are so fun to hunt for while also adding to the fact that a lot of these older games didn't really give you much for 100% except for some bonuses that were normally one off, so having the ability to Trophy hunt for a reason to see these bonuses and another physical thing you can see and keep record of is genius. I'm not saying you can't have complaints or that they're doing a perfect job- I'm just saying we need to show PlayStation more support in the coming months so they see that there is genuine love for these older titles. The fact that the Clone Wars game and Sly Cooper both have five stars on PlayStation is a testament to this. However I believe that after the hype initially dies down people will start ripping into the emulation and considering that Sony has purchased a new emulation company and plans on doing more PS2, PS3, and PSP games in the future I really hope we as gamers in forgive a few issues some more people can experience the Legacy that is the systems. Backwards compatibility is good but not everyone has these games physically anymore and not everyone can afford to collect especially in this day and age. And that's coming from someone who is a collector himself but primarily collects games that I personally want to play regardless if they're rare or not. All in all I'm glad this is happening and I'm glad that there is a solid selection of classic games for someone who prefers older games over new ones. Great discussion video as always man😊
Tomb raider is more expensive because it’s a better game…it’s really that simple. Being an OG tomb raider fan from the very first game in 1996, the reboot trilogy was an absolute masterpiece. If they released anniversary and underworld for the same price as legend, and don’t do anything to the graphics ill still gladly pay that small price of $20-$30 per game, simply to experience the beauty that is those games. I actually was contemplating investing in a backwards compatible ps3 simply to play the reboot trilogy of TR. imagine what the fans would willingly pay to just have those classics available on our newer systems, If we’d be willing to shell out for a ps3 just for them.
I just wanna be able to play any old games I want . there is no reason that cant happen with todays technology. NFL Street, SSX Tricky , the ATV Offroad Fury games etc
They should add the DLC for ToyStory3 for Psp too (for free please) the ps2 version is the same but with all the dlc included. In my opinion, the Ps2/Psp is a way better game, great 3d platformer.
Legends is my personal favorite Tomb Raider game, so even if the port isn't great I'll still get it just for the trophies and to simply have it And if they ever did do a Limited Run physical release I would be all over that shit no matter what it cost
rewinding and save states are a fantastic feature but they do destroy the original feel because it becomes just part of the game choice ie it effectively is a means to cheat. The argument used that you don't have to use them is a daft one because while certainly true, if the options had been there originally then people would have used them. The point is it destroys authenticity of the original intended experience. And that's fine if you don't care but plenty do so it's a shame you can't disable them as part of the initial save select so to lock their use, meaning you can't use them no matter. That way you truly don't have to use these but also can't if you so desire. Simple
Unfortunately there's a lot of terrible ports on the PS4/5 such as the Jak & Daxter trilogy being buggy, glitchy messes. Really wish they didn't do the Jak series so dirty.
Keep em coming PlayStation! This is awesome! Finally these companies realizing we all love our older games more than the crap that’s getting put out now.
its sad seeing people get excited for trophies being added. Like wow, they did the bare minimum and everyone gives around of applause. honestly wtf is wrong with people today? not to mention that they already had all this on the ps3 AND ps4. Nothing here is new and should have been a base offer with the PS5 when it launched with no games for years.

Exactly if they'd listened to fans, I'd be able to pop in my copy of Burnout 3 the same way I can use KOTOR or Ninja Gaiden on the Xbox Series X.
And even then its through emulation so even more minimal effort.
tbf almost all "Backwards Compability" on console works as emulation/ports, especially on Xbox so it shouldn't be a big deal
This is cool, but this is not the real backwards compatibility because I should be able to put in my PS2 Discs and it should just work.

-Tony Hawk's Underground 1+2
-Nicktoons Unite and it's sequels and while we're at it the original version of Battle For Bikini Bottom
-All the classic Lego Games but specifically Indiana Jones
-Bringing back the GTA PS2 games would be a real consumer friendly move after the dogshit replacement failed
They have been putting PS2 games on modern consoles since 2015.
They stopped in 2019 though. This is a new batch on an improved emulator. The old releases had tons of issues.
Man, I wish we could get Trophy Support for The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion! I’d 100% that game again
Hi ya Matty, i think we should eventually stop calling this and what xbox does backwards compatibilty because it's not. They are emulations and for xbox, they are legitimate ports. They all through recertification which objectively makes them not "backwards compatible"
i have 730 ps2 games in dev mode on my xbox series s
@newjackgaming88 OK. Not exactly sure what that has to do with my comment.
You know we is Gamers need to just stop being so picky when companies are actually trying to do something we wanted. I'm in the minority I know this but still I'm so happy to be playing these games again and as a kid I never got to experience half of the lineup the PS2 even had. I'm growing bored of modern gaming and all the bells and whistles added to each new installment and going back and playing the Clone Wars was so much fun. I remember playing that game so much more originally then I did Battlefront 1 until I got Battlefront 2. And the trophies are so fun to hunt for while also adding to the fact that a lot of these older games didn't really give you much for 100% except for some bonuses that were normally one off, so having the ability to Trophy hunt for a reason to see these bonuses and another physical thing you can see and keep record of is genius.
I'm not saying you can't have complaints or that they're doing a perfect job- I'm just saying we need to show PlayStation more support in the coming months so they see that there is genuine love for these older titles. The fact that the Clone Wars game and Sly Cooper both have five stars on PlayStation is a testament to this. However I believe that after the hype initially dies down people will start ripping into the emulation and considering that Sony has purchased a new emulation company and plans on doing more PS2, PS3, and PSP games in the future I really hope we as gamers in forgive a few issues some more people can experience the Legacy that is the systems.
Backwards compatibility is good but not everyone has these games physically anymore and not everyone can afford to collect especially in this day and age. And that's coming from someone who is a collector himself but primarily collects games that I personally want to play regardless if they're rare or not.
All in all I'm glad this is happening and I'm glad that there is a solid selection of classic games for someone who prefers older games over new ones. Great discussion video as always man😊
I really want the original crisis core to be purchasable on ps4/ps5... I know they have the remake but I want the original too.
Hopefully they’ll release Sly2 and Sly3 too.
Tomb raider is more expensive because it’s a better game…it’s really that simple. Being an OG tomb raider fan from the very first game in 1996, the reboot trilogy was an absolute masterpiece. If they released anniversary and underworld for the same price as legend, and don’t do anything to the graphics ill still gladly pay that small price of $20-$30 per game, simply to experience the beauty that is those games. I actually was contemplating investing in a backwards compatible ps3 simply to play the reboot trilogy of TR. imagine what the fans would willingly pay to just have those classics available on our newer systems, If we’d be willing to shell out for a ps3 just for them.
Maybe you will 😂
I just wanna be able to play any old games I want . there is no reason that cant happen with todays technology. NFL Street, SSX Tricky , the ATV Offroad Fury games etc
They should add the DLC for ToyStory3 for Psp too (for free please) the ps2 version is the same but with all the dlc included.
In my opinion, the Ps2/Psp is a way better game, great 3d platformer.
Can I restore ps2 games in my ps5 from my old ps3 purchases? Or have to buy same games again
I really hope lego star wars 2 won't have the no death trophies. Those flying level trophies were so hard
I hope they add more games like Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven or Bloody Roar 3
Jiggle physics...unneeded hand stands to get on the ledge....classic games at their finest.
I wonder if they will do the same for ps3
I wish. They won’t tho because the PS3 was running different chip architecture.
I ment downloading
If we add Sly 2 and 3 im gonna be hyped
Legends is my personal favorite Tomb Raider game, so even if the port isn't great I'll still get it just for the trophies and to simply have it
And if they ever did do a Limited Run physical release I would be all over that shit no matter what it cost
This would all be cool if I can go ahead and put my ps1, 2, and 3 discs in my ps5. So annoying that we can’t do that
It would be a lot better if we can just use our physical discs into the PS5. That's REAL backwards compatibility
The stretched UI on the Clone Wars really bothers me.
Don’t forget about ghost hunter also coming to ps plus
Hey Matty, have you ever dove in to Retro Achievements?
rewinding and save states are a fantastic feature but they do destroy the original feel because it becomes just part of the game choice ie it effectively is a means to cheat. The argument used that you don't have to use them is a daft one because while certainly true, if the options had been there originally then people would have used them. The point is it destroys authenticity of the original intended experience. And that's fine if you don't care but plenty do so it's a shame you can't disable them as part of the initial save select so to lock their use, meaning you can't use them no matter. That way you truly don't have to use these but also can't if you so desire. Simple
Or ya'know just don't use them...
I wanna put my PS2 disc in and it play. This is not backwards compatibility.
WE NEED SOCOM
I’m loving the classics but, my trophies don’t always pop on PS4. Replaying on PS5 usually works fine.
Unfortunately there's a lot of terrible ports on the PS4/5 such as the Jak & Daxter trilogy being buggy, glitchy messes. Really wish they didn't do the Jak series so dirty.
They're not done yet they're going to do more
Not sure why they would charge you money for them when they are free for ps plus members? Unless i missed something
I am wondering if he knows that you can change the camera controls in the pause menu of Sly 1
Really wish they would fix the limited input controls for the anolog stick. Only 8 directions really sucks and ruins these games.
Keep em coming PlayStation! This is awesome! Finally these companies realizing we all love our older games more than the crap that’s getting put out now.
It is odd that only Clone Wars seems to be uprendered to 1440p and Sly Racoon and Tomb Raider Legends uprendering is not uprendering.
its sad seeing people get excited for trophies being added. Like wow, they did the bare minimum and everyone gives around of applause. honestly wtf is wrong with people today? not to mention that they already had all this on the ps3 AND ps4. Nothing here is new and should have been a base offer with the PS5 when it launched with no games for years.
I have a few PS2 disks! Can I get them to work on my PS5 some how?
nope
@@newjackgaming88 sad day :(
They should just hired the PCSX2 and make a version for PS5.
I need the ps3 back compat that and 360 era are my gaming awakening but ps2 and og Xbox too more of all those games
