I find it more amusing that PS2 emulation is still no great.
It it miles better than it sued to be a few years ago but not being o ppsspp levels by now is stupid, like, what exactly is the hold up with that?

Stop using the stable version, you fricking morons.
PS2 emulation is better than ever. I know what I'm talking about, I've put almost 1500 hours into PCSX2 last year.
i tried the nightly version to run a few favorites of mine and it ran like shit. Maybe i just picked a a handful of games that don't run well yet though.
Name them. I've 100 completed over 50 games last year and I've only had issues with Tomb Raider Legend's ghosting effect, and Juiced not being emulated very well.
To be fair PCSX2 is still largely a piece of shit held together with duct tape hacks and work arounds, they've just made it so those hacks get applied automatically so the end user doesn't realise
I literally, unironically 100%ed every PS2 ratchet and clank on my deck last year anon playing on pcsx2. What the frick are you doing? Is your PC really worse than a deck?
Use the PS3 emulator and play the Ratchet and Clank Trilogy release, just like with God of War 1 and 2 and Shadow of the Colossus, they run better and look better when using the PS3 emulator.
They relied on dogshit hacky garbage and shit like that for like over a decade. They wanted game x to be playable so they pushed shit ton of garbage into code and so pcsx2 became bloated garbage using hacks to make games run. Pcsx2 would need to be started from scratch at this point to become really good.
It's the same game since I'm not a mod homosexual, and the PC version needs to use a plug-in to accept controller since I'm not a keyboard homosexual either
You can't even explain why Uncharted 2 and God of War 3 are the best looking games that generation with only 256MB of RAM but you think you are qualified to shit on RCPS3
It’s a great game, probably the best one in the series. Those first five games were all good fun. GOW3 has the least varied locations but still looks pretty spectacular, especially for a PS3 game. The other games had more platforming than 3 did from what I remember
3 is a good game but doesn't feel like an epic adventure. Even most "bosses" arent even real battles and just quick time events like Helios and Hermes. Cronos is also basically just a level instead of a boss fight
GoW 1-2 are cool adventures with the most kino setting in fiction
It doesn't feel like 20 years. 20 years before the PS3 was the NES. The concept of a PS3 to someone in 1986 would be incomprehensible. Now we're basically still playing the same games as were on PS3 but at a little high fidelity.
I don't know what people complaining about it are trying to run, it's decent at the very least, and downright amazing imo. I mean, there can't be that many anons curious about Anarchy Reigns and Eternal Sonata? Plus both of these run well on Xenia
By frame dips, you mean under 30 FPS? If you cap it at 30, you'd be able to play it at the same framerate it runs on PS3, sure. But I want to get a NASA PC so I can replay these games at like 120 FPS, if possible. No hardware allows for that yet. Hopefully 15th gen gets the job done.
What? That emulator is pure magic you dumb Black person. I played AC 4, FA, Demons Souls and Drakengard 3 at 1080 60fps fricking flawlessly on my old shit box.
nta but I beat Infamous 1 a bit ago, pretty playable but some of the effects looked a bit fricked up.
Infamous 2 is about the same last I checked except the effects look even worse
This is possibly most demanding game for some weird fricking reason.

I'm not surprised. Being an early exclusive it's optimized as shit, my ps3 slim legit froze few times during a playthrough. Maybe it's the console showing it's age though.
>How in the frick is this still complete garbage
I still have my PS3 connected, because I hate dealing with that emulator. Meanwhile, you load a game in Xenia and *it just works*.
Not really, it just doesnt have people working on it. Main devs dropped Xenia long time ago and its currently maintained by contributors while rpcs3 has core full time team for years and contributors working on it on top of that. Im just happy that Ninja Gaiden 2 is playable would love first Crackdown too.
>while rpcs3 has core full time team for years and contributors working on it on top of that.
Honestly I never expected it to ever get decent emulation, it was a nightmare for devs to program for the ps3 let alone some randos emulating it. I consider the emulator in it’s current state to be a goddamn miracle tbh.
xenia makes red dead redemption work out of the box, RPCS3 still get slowdowns, missing textures and shadows and crashes no matter what your setup is, it's a roulette every time you boot it up. Why someone would fanboy for an emulator is beyond me.
wasn't a thing until last year and the point stil lstands, RPSC3 is good for PS3 exclusives, xenia is the best bet when it comes to multiplats because it doesn't require visiting a wiki to attempt to make a game playable. All 3 Ratchet & Clank games are prone to randomly crashing and it's not a CPU or memory problem, the game will freeze and force quit whenever it feels like.
I care more about the PS4, most PS3 important games you can emulate well or pirate the remastered versions that got out for the PC, but PS4 is another thing, besides the games they let go to the PC we never will get their exclusive, Bloodborne gays cry about it everyday since 2015

Emotion Engine is even worse than the PS3 Power of the Cell meme. Cell is atleast well documented.
PS2 emulation is great.
It pisses me of so much that Ratchet and Clank still run like shit
yeah, i had to homebrew my ps3 and play that version instead. not perfect but it got the job done.
it runs fine
Stop using the stable version, you fricking morons.

i believe they were the following games:
>urban chaos: riot response
>Black
>nightshade
>burnout 3 onwards
>onimusha 3
only one that worked right of the bat was onimusha 3. I don't remember if there were more games.
I believe the first two and Burnout are among the most demanding games to emulate so, it's probably your specs.
probably. Ill wait until i get a better pc next year.
Btw how do i check how demanding a game is to be emulated?
Check the PCSX2 wiki, I guess. I have like 700 games stored so, If I want to check how something runs, I just try it out for 20 mins or so.
To be fair PCSX2 is still largely a piece of shit held together with duct tape hacks and work arounds, they've just made it so those hacks get applied automatically so the end user doesn't realise
The only people who whine about how bad PS2 emulation is have never emulated a single game ps2 game in their life.
I don't get why they don't just merge the good branch into the stable one. makes no sense

i genuinely believe that morons like you have absolute dogshit pcs or are just too dumb for vidya emulation
>I find it more amusing that PS2 emulation is still no great.
Works on MY machine!
I tried to emulate Morrowind and it gave me a headache and in the end I just downloaded the PC version(pirated of course)
Why the frick would you want to play PS3 morrowwind?
It's the same game since I'm not a mod homosexual, and the PC version needs to use a plug-in to accept controller since I'm not a keyboard homosexual either

How does GoW3 play? Been wanting to get into the OG series
3 runs fine, you can play it entirely with no problems. Ascension is a disaster tho
It’s a great game, probably the best one in the series. Those first five games were all good fun. GOW3 has the least varied locations but still looks pretty spectacular, especially for a PS3 game. The other games had more platforming than 3 did from what I remember
I prefer 2 over 3 but it's still a really fun and entertaining game from beginning to end. They went nuts with the scope in the best possible way.
3 is a good game but doesn't feel like an epic adventure. Even most "bosses" arent even real battles and just quick time events like Helios and Hermes. Cronos is also basically just a level instead of a boss fight
GoW 1-2 are cool adventures with the most kino setting in fiction
this is my humble opinion about the series.
2=GoS>1>3>CoO=Asc
Ascension lower.
>The PS3 is almost 20 years old
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
it will be 17 years this year
the PS2 is almost 24
I mindbroke a coworker saying the oldest console I played was a PS2 while he played in the N64, arcade and lan houses
don't do this to me.
The PS3 is older than the NES when the ps2 came out
>The PS3 is older than the NES when the ps2 came out
the frick going on in england
That art is terrible. Age 5 looks like a hollow skin suit with someone operating the flesh golem from the inside using the mouth as a viewport.
And that's a good thing
Property less scum
>he played in the N64
came out much later than the PS1 and was shit
Yes. Time moves forward. What do you expect?
It doesn't feel like 20 years. 20 years before the PS3 was the NES. The concept of a PS3 to someone in 1986 would be incomprehensible. Now we're basically still playing the same games as were on PS3 but at a little high fidelity.
ps3 games are better than modern ones, back then games were done by proffesionals who loved games.
The PS3 is now a retro console
>20 years since ps3
>this would be like 1986 to the ps3 launch
fuggg
I don't know what people complaining about it are trying to run, it's decent at the very least, and downright amazing imo. I mean, there can't be that many anons curious about Anarchy Reigns and Eternal Sonata? Plus both of these run well on Xenia
I just finished Uncharted 1 and 2 with only 2 crashes. WORKS FOR ME DAWG
Specs?
i5-11400
3060ti
You could probably beat Uncharted 2 with that, but it's far from optimal.
I literally beat it no problem TODAY and I literally only had maybe 2 areas with frame dips and I was running it at 125% res
By frame dips, you mean under 30 FPS? If you cap it at 30, you'd be able to play it at the same framerate it runs on PS3, sure. But I want to get a NASA PC so I can replay these games at like 120 FPS, if possible. No hardware allows for that yet. Hopefully 15th gen gets the job done.
Ok buddy
k
Because the PS3 architecture is an eldric abomination.
works on my machine
>The PS3 is almost 20 years old
THA POWA OF DA CELL
Glad I'm not the only one who thought of this.
What? That emulator is pure magic you dumb Black person. I played AC 4, FA, Demons Souls and Drakengard 3 at 1080 60fps fricking flawlessly on my old shit box.
Those are like, the least demanding games to emulate. Most PS3 exclusives still run like shit, even on the highest-end hardware.
My specs
Hows infamous nowadays? That fricking game was still unplayable even on top tier CPUs last time ive looked up
2 still is
I believe the first one is playable on NASA PCs.
nta but I beat Infamous 1 a bit ago, pretty playable but some of the effects looked a bit fricked up.
Infamous 2 is about the same last I checked except the effects look even worse
Oh yeah I should mention I paypigged out for an i9 just for it so I might have just brute forced through infamous 1
Unlocked framerate jumps from 30-60 depending on scene. Locked 30 is perfectly fine rarely if ever see a dip
My specs
Forgot screenshot my bad
This is possibly most demanding game for some weird fricking reason.
I'm not surprised. Being an early exclusive it's optimized as shit, my ps3 slim legit froze few times during a playthrough. Maybe it's the console showing it's age though.
>Those are like, the least demanding games to emulate
Lmao keep moving the goalpost homosexual
I'm just stating facts, moron. My fricking laptop can run these games at 4K/60+FPS.
NTA post specs because I'm in the market.
10870H, and the 130w 3060.
Bought it at the height of the crypto meme, now I'm looking to get a high-end desktop.
What laptop Black person.
Custom built, on PCSpecialist. I'm white.
>I'm white
Good morning sir
specs?
The ps3 had the shittiest hardware known to man, every game dev complained about it at the time
pcs are less powerful than consoles
ps3 is basically a developers worst nightmare to create vidya on
The power of DA CELL
I only ever played MGS4 and Drakengard 3 on it and they ran well, better even than on the console.
Citra is still the worst piece of shit emulator
I hate it & hate that I'll probably die of old age before the retroarch core gets updated to the current build.
Then just use the standalone?
I do but I fricking hate it as I said, they made some deeply moronic design choices that make it a pain in the ass to use.
>The PS3 is almost 20 years old
The ps3 quite famously uses black magic in order to function.
blasphemy
no one who is talented and has an xbox/ps3 would ever make something for free
ps3 is a corporate and plain console , for unispire edgy kids that didn't find anything wrong with 20 brown fps games every year for 8 fck years .
that's why
you want emulation ? go to nintendo
they actually had good games
Because the PS3 is a piece of shit hardware-wise.

>How in the frick is this still complete garbage
I still have my PS3 connected, because I hate dealing with that emulator. Meanwhile, you load a game in Xenia and *it just works*.
>all games i wanted to be playable are but fricking crackdown isnt
Man..
Well Xenia's foundation was clearly made by a motivated programmer who works for google.
RPCS3 is literally russians and LATAM
>Xenia
Much worse than RPCS3 at everything
Not really, it just doesnt have people working on it. Main devs dropped Xenia long time ago and its currently maintained by contributors while rpcs3 has core full time team for years and contributors working on it on top of that. Im just happy that Ninja Gaiden 2 is playable would love first Crackdown too.

xenia makes red dead redemption work out of the box, RPCS3 still get slowdowns, missing textures and shadows and crashes no matter what your setup is, it's a roulette every time you boot it up. Why someone would fanboy for an emulator is beyond me.
>red dead redemption
Use Switch emulators for that
wasn't a thing until last year and the point stil lstands, RPSC3 is good for PS3 exclusives, xenia is the best bet when it comes to multiplats because it doesn't require visiting a wiki to attempt to make a game playable. All 3 Ratchet & Clank games are prone to randomly crashing and it's not a CPU or memory problem, the game will freeze and force quit whenever it feels like.
I played through 2 ratchet games on rpcs3 without any problems on dogshit i5 9400f lol. Never crashed
There's custom patches you can use to help with the crashing at least. A Crack in Time still has performance issues and crashes though.
PS3 on android when?
I care more about the PS4, most PS3 important games you can emulate well or pirate the remastered versions that got out for the PC, but PS4 is another thing, besides the games they let go to the PC we never will get their exclusive, Bloodborne gays cry about it everyday since 2015
Wot games to play on it?
