Wow... 3? Youre a good parent.

Of course it's amazing that kids nowadays can play games in their own language, I definitely would have enjoyed so much more games back then if they were in portuguese.

But playing final fantasy 6 and chrono trigger on snes with a portuguese/english dictionary by my side when I was 14y had such an impact on me and my appreciation for the english language that I really dont know if I would be fluent in english when I was 18 if it were not for those non translated games. The same can be said for a lot of my friends. 

He took appreciation to gaming from a very early age =] he have finished Knack 1 and 2 like 10 times each. He also play games that aren't dubbed and still can't read almost anything.

When I was around 14 I think there were some crazy colleagues that finished FF VII in Japanese without any walkthrough, magazine or dictionary. They were just writing down what they thought were the kanji and basically discovering what type of magic was good against what type of monster and trial and error until the end. Probably they became quite OP through grinding and probably didn't do superboss. Some people go through the heights to play what they like.

And you talking about playing with dictionary, I would say most of the english I learnt was by playing.

Never said that. I said current gen struggle at 1080p 30fps. Mostly of course, sony first party games usually have no trouble. 

Then that is where you got me confused, I was talking about how the boost mode will allow most PS$ games to perhaps get 4k60fps on PS5 and seemed that you were saying they wouldn't even be 1080p solid 30fps.

But seeing your other post, it would be good that games allow you the option for higher IQ or FPS when it can't do 4k60fps on gen 9.

I really enjoyed the first 2 Infamous games, how does Second Son compare? I havent played it but lost interest when Cole was no longer in the game. 

It is my favorite inFamous and my favorite early title, almost plat it twice. It is just gorgeous to look at and super fan to play.

That reminds me I finished final fantasy tactics 100% in english the first time. A magazine in Brazil released a 12 page translation of all menus and there I went playing the game with no idea what was the story and just doing stuff my general knowledge of final fantasy, by trial an error and memorizing a few kanji and which magic/ability it was. I think this was in 1998 or something.

Later on I played the game again this time in english for PSone. Still had no idea about the crazy story.

Then several years later played the best version for psp with new translation an stuff. Still have no idea about the story hahaha.

But finishing it in japanese the first time was a great accomplishment for me a that time.

Just found out 1 week ago that my wife is pregnant, I hope my son/daughter gets the same appreciation for games as you son.
