Hoping to recreate the PS+ community on Lemmy. I'm hoping this can be a fun place to discuss upcoming PS+ titles or highlight other deals that may interest PS+ subscribers.

Hi! I'm the mod over on https://lemmy.ml/c/ps5

We are currently afflicted with the remote moderator bug, meaning that you'll get a "404 community not found" message.

Here is a link to the GitHub issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3075

We are still accessible at https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]

When the new backend update rolls out it should be fixed. Until then we unfortunately don't show up on browse.feddit.de or lemmyverse.net

I've been working really hard to build a great community over there and a little bug like this just knee capped our discoverability. The only thing I can think of doing is posting this on other Playstation communitie to spread the word.

Since PS5 is 99.9% backward compatible with PS4, and there are so few only PS5 games, I think even if the community is strictly PS5 only, it would still have lots of PS4 content.

What are you playing on PS3 BTW? My original DualShock controller broke, now I can't find the original and the copies break so easily, so I have stopped touching my PS3 completely.

Finally getting around to playing Fallout New Vegas. I bought the game when it was new back in 2010, played for maybe an hour or two, and then put the game on my shelf where it sat untouched for more than a decade. I just couldn't get into it back then and would typically fall back to playing something like COD instead.

As for why I'm getting back into the game now, my wife and I went to Vegas/Phoenix earlier this year while touring the National Parks out there (Zion, Grand Canyon, Saguaro, etc.), so I finally got the urge to boot it back up again looking for the western ghost town feel. My first thought was to replay RDR, but instead, I decided to try something I had never played before.

The PS3 was my main system from 2008 to 2019, so I have a bunch of controllers for it, but almost all of them have some sort of problems (most commonly, stick drift or phantom button presses). Because of that, I'm actually playing with an old PS2 controller I had laying around in it's original box for years that probably dates to 2005 or so. I bought a cheap adapter for it on Amazon that goes from the PS2 connection to USB, and it actually works better than using a PS4 controller because the vibration function actually works.

Before then, I was playing Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare on the PS3, which, even in 2023, still has well populated online multiplayer.

Ah, visit to Vegas sounds fun. Fallout New Vegas is a great game, but if I recall correctly there was some issue with it on PS3, the game start becoming slower and slower as you save more and more or something. Don't recall the exact issue, and maybe it was patched out. Not sure.

I actually got couple of USB dongles that let you connect different controller to different consoles. It let me connect DualSense to PS3, but the key mapping is all wrong, so it doesn't feel fun.

I should look up the dongle again, maybe they released some software update fixing the issue.
