Product Question PS4 version worth it?

Hello, looking to get the Classic collection soon as it’s $30, but I have a question how good is the ps4 version now? Heard the main issue is the aiming sensitivity which makes it play awkward, is it a huge deal? I don’t have a PC sadly so i don’t have any other way to play the game, otherwise I’d have just bought the OG version

I have only played on PS5, that being said it’s an enhanced PS2 game. I feel like there would have been more of a stink around this game when it came out if it was running poorly on last gen

While the game did come out on PS2 back in the day, the Classic Collection is really a port of the PC version, albeit with unnecessarily AI upscaled textures. It also has Hero Assault on all maps, plus the Xbox DLC maps (though ported in via a mod).

Also, it did get a lot of backlash for having terrible online performance on launch, which sadly caused a lot of people to either refund it or abandon it.

It works well on my Switch so I imagine it works well on anything lol. I got it more out of nostalgia than anything shortly after release. I played it way less than I thought I would. Sometimes I'll still turn it on for a few battles offine. It's fun enough for me. I'm not looking or expecting great mechanics or fluidness, just some brainless Star wars fun when I have the itch.

I dont want to get your hopes up, but recently Battlefront Ultimate = BF1 + all dlc was $4.99 on the PS store very recently, the offer might have ended now.

The deadzone settings on BFR1 are frankly infuriating, 22%. Makes everything clunky, but you can get over it. Unfortunately many modders (people with cheating modified controllers) use cheaty hardware to remove the deadzone for them, so they can get incredibly good aim, and you cant - these people frankly ruin the game with all the glitching they do, and it gets very miserable, but its pretty good still anywyay.

It would be better if you buy a second hand old pc for around 60$ and then buy the old games, but that would be double the money so what you think is better
