MX4SIO

You're welcome, i had alot of issues with some Yakuza games on a hen ps3. Zero, Kiwami and Ishin all need some files to be patched, and ps3 iso tools does that automatically. Although there are bad dumps out there as well, i know ishin has since i had to rip my own disc to make it boot on my hen ps3

if you're using folder format, try converting to iso with ps3 iso tools

About cutscene subtitles: https://gbatemp.net/threads/yakuza-kiwami-ps3-english-patch.580142/#post-9469060 SamuraiOndo was suggesting it might be possible porting the subtitles using Kaplas' translation framework. However, since the Japanese and western releases have a different subtitle...

So, after reformatting the hard drive and starting putting everything back in it on my ps3, everything seemed fine.. however, after a couple of days of usage, it suddenly became slow as shit, freezing and hanging constantly Looks like it WAS a faulty drive, crystal disk info was wrong...

Yeah I know how to do that now, but back when i bought it i had no idea you could do that. As i said, since then i moved to the psp version so i didn't bother decrypting the data

Wait, that's the reported freeze in the wiki? I got my missions mixed up, it's been awhile since i played this game! The freezes i got where during a different missions, while driving a vehicle

It's good to know it doesn't always happen, i got frustrated back then because it freezed every time. Since then, i moved to the psp version on a ps vita tv so i never tried making a custom ps2 pkg

Yup. Luckily i already owned it on ps2, i bought in on ps3 because i didn't have liberty city stories, they were 2,50€ each and i thought it would be nice to continue playing VCS on ps3.. not only i found out you can't import memory card saves on ps2 classics officially (i thought i could use...

The official european psn release also freezes there. I bought it years ago and never beat the game because of this :/ They just sold it without testing it lmao

Yeah, maybe the console freaks out when you're actually using the extra space on certain drives. I did a file system check as soon as i've unlocked the space (without writing anything on it) and it did work. Then i played a game which installed something like 4gb of data (before unlocking, my...

Nope, the drive is perfectly healthy. I'll reformat it and reinsert it in my ps3. This literally never happened to me before unlocking the extra space and starting using it, there might be issues with my (and possibly other) specific model, i will not test this out in the other ps3, as that's...

Yeah, i've heard enclosures can kill hard drives sometimes, that sucks! I'll check mineater and report back with the results, if it is defective i should be able to get another one from the seller anyway

Oh yeah that was the software i used to check the drive now that i think of it. I'll give it a try and check if it's healthy, thanks

I did a full long format when i first got it, and it didn't seem to have any issue
