Black Friday deals look exciting, especially discounts on classics like Ghost of Tsushima or Miles Morales.

I was struck by the PlayStation Portal and cloud streaming, finally it will become a portable device!

Also, the advances in PS1toPS4 FPKGs are great for reviving classics. It’s amazing how the community keeps innovating; I hope to try some of this tools soon.

PS: Sorry if my english is a little bad.

 

[RRR2022]

I was wondering that how could I get back to old days by playing PS2 games, then I got fpkgs which could really do that through PS4.

 

[0oase]

I'm very interested in the PSportal homebrew scene ever since that pic with it running a PSP gane was floating around the internet.

 

[Trash00Panda]

If anyone didn’t already know, used ps4’s are on sale at GameStop. Just before Thanksgiving I got a ps4 pro for $160. Thought that was a good deal. Does anyone know if there will be a permanent jailbreak for ps4s on 11.0?

 

[exp12345]

@Trash00Panda you could use something like luckfox or pi to run the exploit at boot. yes it's not permanent but kind of close due to it runs automatically at boot. rest mode is also possible with 11.0 and goldhen.

some people had problems with rest mode when internet and cable were connected to the ps4, but in most cases removing the cable fixed the rest mode. i personally never had problems with rest mode while the cable was connected and internet was activated on the ps4.

I do like the idea that it's once again up to modders to actually make the ps portal usable and worth to buy, Not surprised tho seeing how it at first it was just a glorified paper weight that you COULD use but why would you if you already had to use the PS5 and the same Wi-Fi (not to talk about the crazy amount of issues that brought) thankfully they lifted some of the restrictions, classic sony

 

[shoryuph]

The PlayStation Portal is good but they should make another handheld console as ps vita is long dead

 

[pierorev]

Maybe it is the moment that I try the Portal if it really becomes portable, even if you have to add to its price other things, but I really miss the PS Vita days and hope it will follow its steps.

I tried it a week ago and I was surprisingly amazed, but I think that other few implementations have to be made. They are on the correct road.

By the way great discounts for the week but I did not purchase any.

 

[bigheck950]

so is the portal worth all the hype?

 

[bigheck950]

I know that you can bring your portal anywhere as long as you have stable internet but then again, I been reading a lot of articles saying that the PS portal is only use for gaming, which made me think, that's not true.

let me explain.. so when you're bringing your portal with you, you're basically bringing your PS5 with you, and I do lots of things with my PS5, like watch youtube videos or netflix, and I believe the PS5 also has a built in browser to surf the net

am I right or did I miss anything?
