I’m really only now getting heavy into emulators and I’ve been playing a lot of PS2 titles on my android phone. That’s rocky enough that I know 360 emulation on a phone would be trash. But how is it on PCs?

Program recommendations? Advice? Thanks!

Totally not doing this just because I’m finishing up RDR2 and I need to know the rest of the story from the original, nope not at all.

        How is that experience? Stable? Can you use Xbox controllers? Is it especially strenuous on the system?

          How is that experience?

          it works very well for lots of games

          Stable?

          for most games yes. here is the official compatibility list: https://rpcs3.net/compatibility

          Can you use Xbox controllers?

          You can use any controller you can get working on your pc. Xbox controllers work fine.

          Is it especially strenuous on the system?

          depends on what you mean with especailly. just like other emulators it needs a strong cpu. it should support the avx2 instruction set. here are the official requirements: https://rpcs3.net/quickstart> Nigger

          It seems he is only banned on your instance. i see his comment. It was the n-word (with out any other text).

            You might want to edit this comment, brother. I’m surprised no one noticed it.

    I play much older games on emulators so I don’t have very specific advice for you but PS2 emulation is kinda uniquely difficult because it had pretty odd hardware.

      I’ve had a good experience for the most part with PS2. RPGs work well that ive played. Fight Night 3 is still one of the best boxing games. I’ve got a dozen games I think.

      Shadow of the Colossus is that systems emulation white whale. I don’t know the details but apparently it’s one of the hardest games to emulate for whatever reason. Probably has something to do with it being a PS1 turned into a PS2 game thru black shadow magic. Idk.

      Armored Core 3 is extremely rough too. Sky Odyssey won’t even load for me. Ratchet and Clank is extremely resource heavy too.
