When the classic games went live in other Asian countries last month, fans were disappointed to discover that Sony had opted for the inferior 50hz PAL games, a decision likely driven by the desire to include multiple language support. Questions, corrections and neg vote justifications below.Watch on YouTube Subscribe to VGC on YouTubeĪs expected, Japan’s classic PSOne games also run in the NTSC 60hz format, since Sony has opted to publish the original Japanese language versions of the games. Not as useful as other enemies, but with the latter missions that have a lot of these enemies, these darts makes carving a path through much easier. The Stalkers (high tech ninjas) will not get terrified or attack anyone, but they will hold their heads until the point where they take themselves out. Dogs especially can be a pain in New Game +, and these darts help significantly to alleviate that problem. After a short period of time they will also take themselves out. Upgraded darts will cause the enemy to also take themselves out after a set period of time, meaning you are guaranteed to at least take one person out with this item.ĭogs and Elite Guards (the guys you need to stun before executing) will go on a violent rampage not only attracting enemies to them but also attacking their buddies indiscriminately. You can use that to plan on one guy taking out multiple enemies in their line of fire (but just be careful - if you are in a hiding spot in their line of fire then you will get hit as well). The darts will cause normal enemies to get terrified and start shooting wildly in whatever direction they were struck. These are not only really fun to use, but one dart can wipe out multiple enemies in highly concentrated areas with minimal effort for you.
The Path of the Mark costume lets you carry one attack item, and although you can use whatever you want I highly suggest a fully upgraded terror dart.
This alone makes New Game + a lot faster and easier to manage than even the normal run in some areas. You should be familiar with this one as well before your New Game + run, but if you were not aware there are entire sections in the early game (up to when you unlock the Path of the Mark costume) that can be skipped because of this ability. You can not teleport through doors or walls, but you can go past lasers AND into hiding spots. This ability allows you to essentially teleport past certain obstacles and enemies. This technique is tied to the Path of the Mark costume, and can only be used while wearing it. You should be aware of how this works well before your New Game + run. This technique is unlocked midway through your normal run, and it will mitigate (somewhat) you lack of visibility. With this you get one of the best techniques in the game, however you lose any distraction item you could carry. This is unlocked through the course of your initial playthrough on normal, so on New Game + you will have access to this from the start. If you are someone who just wants to speed your way through these missions to get this done, here is what I suggest: And overall the changes do not make this that much more challenging, but there are places that can cause a mild inconvenience (specifically the last few missions with the Stalkers). The player's visibility is restricted to an area in the direction they are facing (no longer have the whole screen visible to you at any given time)Įssentially this mode requires players to have an understanding of enemy behaviors and basic level layouts. The player's noise indicator is no longer available (makes running less of an option) Enemy alert indicators (vision cones, dog "sense aura", etc) are no longer available to the player. Enemies are more aggressive: Easier to detect the player and hit much harder (everything essentially becomes a OHK)
What New Game + changes to increase difficulty So although it is slightly tougher to run through, you still have a massive advantage at the jump. New Game + is more difficult than the standard playthrough, however as the standard tradition of New Game + you have everything you unlocked with your initial playthrough. It can be accessed from the title screen as an option after the start game option. New Game + is unlocked after finishing the game on normal difficulty.
