Sony’s new version of PlayStation Plus has rolled out in some parts of the world, and the news isn’t good for those excited for the new Premium tier and its lineup of classic games from the PS1, PS2, PS3, and PSP. As we’ve already detailed, the resolution, features, and performance of these classics are shockingly poor given we’re talking about decades-old games in some cases. Also, bafflingly, many of the PS Plus classics offered are the European PAL versions, which were configured to run on old 50hz TVs. Of course, all TVs are either 60 or 120hz now, and 50hz games are stuttery, slow-motion messes on them.

Well, it seems Sony has quietly released a “fix” for the PAL version issue, but it’s not much of a fix at all. According to a new Digital Foundry video, it seems Sony has used frame-blending techniques to try to make games like Jumping Flash and Everybody’s Golf feel smoother in action, but the result is heavy ghosting on all moving objects.
