do I emulate, or use the pc version?

Also, if I do emulate, which emulator?

ive heard the pc version operates ok, but has some audio problems

I'd rather emulate it. Less fuss and you can use nice filters.

Best solutions would be to play the new PS4 version though :)

PS1 version. I couldn't get the PC version to work, it would freeze my laptop every time, and when I downloaded a patch to fix it, it was at an unplayable framerate.

they are remaking it on PC, but i'm not sure if it's complete yet

emulate. The pc versions of these old console games tend to be even more of a mess than modern console ports, if you can believe that.

>> No.1977970

get the gog releases

The voice controls lick ass if you play it on emulator, but I suppose you can "responsibly" use save states and make Oddysee less of a chore, so there's that.

>> No.1978396

ok, ill emulate

>>1977154
any idea what some good setting/filters may be. Never done ps1 emulation before, seems an odd pain in the ass to get working.

Since you're likely on Windows, just get pcsx-r. It just werks.

Play PC version.
Works fine, had no problems with it.
Exodus runs great on pc too fyi

Never had any issues

No it's not.

Indeed, it isn't. I was sure it was out on all of the platforms already.

>> No.1978708

I actually emulated it on the PSP with great success. Map Sneak and Run to L and R and map the Gamespeak buttons to Left and Right on the analog stick.

emulate psx version because of savestates.
if you want to 100% it, it's really a pain in the arse without quicksaves!

Or better yet, watch a playthrough on Youtube, right? Like you often do.

haha, good joke, never heard that one before.
it's a puzzle game and the controls are stiff at times, and the loading times of the different screens / reloading when dieing are too long for some.
it's not a shmup or something where reflexes and endurance are key after long, exhausting levels, it's a calm puzzle game with some adventure setting, that happens too be way more tedious if you want to experiment with the solutions.

I got a random iso of the PC version to work flawlessly with no tinkering a few years ago on my toaster XP laptop.

Doubt it would go so smoothly on my modern rig.

>tfw it just keeps getting harder to play older games.

i played this games like 6 times with keyboard over the course of ten years. I wanted to play it again but this time with my 360 pad but i cant find a configuration that makes sense. No matter what button does what it ends up being impossible to change between rolling, jumping and tip toeing fast enough plus i dont know where to put all the dialogue commands
