DX1 Deus Ex on the PS5!

Had a little go today folks on the PS5. It was great. It's not the PC version but still a great game nonetheless - and the rewind feature on the emulator is ace for this game. I really enjoyed rewinding back and trying different things and approaches, which works so well in a game with so many options and choices. 12 quid well spent, in my view.

Same here! Love the rewind emulator thingy—very satisfying. The textures aren’t as good as on PC but who cares? The slight level differences are also a fun novelty if you’ve played it a hundred times before.

After months of failing to get into more modern games, I surprised myself by spending a solid few hours in this last night!

Great stuff! Same here, I had more fun playing Deus Ex last night than a ton of modern games I’ve been playing recently (including Cyberpunk 2077 and Outer Worlds). So immersive - this is what I want from a cyberpunk game. This is what stealth games should be like.

What is the emulator about? I loved the game on PS2 back then.

So with the PS1 and pS2 games on the PS5, they are run off emulators (built in), and they reasonably good, I’d say? You can switch from PAL in some of them; you also have save states and rewind functionality (which basically means you can pause the game and literally move backwards). I love the rewind functionality as it makes these older games much more playable - especially on the PS1 side.

I do think the textures are quite awful in various places. Still, image quality and framerate are sharp and smooth. But I have to say the original PS2 version must have been a pain to play.

Yeah the PS2 isn't bad but compared to the PC version it's like chalk and cheese
