PSP Game Gets New Game-Changing Feature on PS4 and PS5

4.4
A classic PSP game available and playable on PS4 and PS5 has added a new game-changing feature. If you noticed a new update to Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror, it's because you have the game downloaded. And if you have it downloaded, you will be happy to know that as of the recent update you can enable the right analog stick for aiming. This completely changes the experence of playing the game on PS4 and PS5. The news was relayed over on the PS5 Reddit page, and the first and most popular reply literally reads: "holy s**t this actually changes everything."

If you've been playing -- or trying to play the game but failing due to its controls -- you know how big of a deal this is, which is why all the other replies are equally rejoicing.

"Dude, I saw this update hit but had no idea what the update was. I was hoping they added that because it was unplayable with face button aiming," writes another PlayStation fan of the news over on the PS5 Reddit page. "This is a must have for all of these PSP conversions."

"This is great. I tried playing the original Syphon Filter again when they made it available on PS4 a while ago, but it would never save my control settings for having un-inverted aiming which annoyed me more than the fairly antiquated aim system it already had (no second stick support of course). I should have just bought Dark Mirror," adds a third Reddit user.



For those out of the loop completely, Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror is a 2006 PSP game from developer Bend Studio, best known in the present for Days Gone. The fifth installment in the Syphon Filter series and a sequel to 2004's Syphon Filter: The Omega Strain, Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror was brought to PS4 and PS5 on March 21 alongside its addition to the PS Plus Premum library. And with this update, it plays much more like a modern game rather than a 2006 PSP game simply ported over to modern hardware without much thought.

Dude if PS5 would bring back the classics like xbox does ps5 would make so much money and hella people on everytime. We all love to have the OLD Cods, Classic PS2, Classic PS1 games, Like they need to figure something out. I enjoyed my series X because of the cods.

using the right stick isnt worth it, the deadzone is set to 0 so having your thumb 1% forward or even on the stick makes you start drifting the cam which is pretty damn annoying since you want a deadzone of at least 10% for fine aiming on a controller, hell as long as 5% deadzone, if you swap face buttons to movement and the left stick to aim you can tell the difference that facebutton aiming/left stick aiming has a deadzone, since the right stick is just mirroring the facebuttons itself theres no deadzone on the right stick which makes it unusable.

theres a reason why we have dead zones.

was the feature cool yeah was the feature worth using fk no its not, unless you have a edge controller then you can add as much deadzone needed to make the stick feel good.
