This Emulator is actually really good!

I don't understand the meme about it being shit. Every ps2 game I throw at it works flawlessly with very minor glitches which is expected from emulation. What's the deal guys?

That's cool and everything but are you going to beat any games or just talk about how it plays the first level of every game?

Any Forums hates effective programs

Emulating ps2 and ps3 games are probably the most soulless things you can do.

That's just it, it's a meme. It's not shit and works great

Try Spider-man 2
>play it in dolphin
That's not the point.

If you're using the nightly builds, it's getting into a pretty good state now. The past couple of years have really cleaned up quite a few of the major issues that plagued the emulator. It got a bad reputation because it was so terrible for so long.

Granted, things still have a lot of problems depending on the specific game. Fatal Frame 1 is a great example, where ghosts don't render properly in hardware, and the game locks up on the final boss if you look in a specific direction. It's still got a long way to go in some places.

Any Forums is full of armchair programmers who have never made anything in there lives, criticizing code or apps for the way they look, rather than their functionality

I prefer the sequel, RPCS3

Lmaoo have fun trying to boot up those old games and consoles in about 20 years

It's interesting that the ones that constantly criticize and shit on PCSX2 are never able to name a better PS2 emulator.

what's the best emulator to play this game

what's the best version of this game

what's the best romhack of this game

>I don't understand the meme about it being shit
It's literally just one schizo.

Speaking of. How does that work for mid tier builds? I have a few games in mind that I would like to playthrough again, mostly HD remasters like MGS, God Of War... and trophy support I gotta know about trophy support

>cope
>I wont buy a 30yo game for $70
Emulating is the best way to experience and archive all game

dont care still using opl

You've played the most entry level PS2 games imaginable, are you going to play any more fucking games is what I'm asking. Play some fucking games. Do it. Don't bullshit here, just do it and come talk about them for fucks sake.

and now it also looks great

>buying ps2 games
lmao

That's mostly true, except completely invalid in the context of PS2 emulation where 99% of all complaints have been about its functionality.

>n-no not THOSE games!!
Stfu retard, moving goalposts isn't an argument
Also R&C is infamously CPU intensive

Of course it is. Playing PS2 games at 4K is amazing, some of them look very good and aged well. PS2 version of Shadow of the Colossus at 4K is amazing, I pity anyone who plays the garbage Bluepoint PS3 Shitmastered or the utter dogshit PS4 Demake.

I'd bet most of the problems were with the UI and being a pain to set up per-game settings compared to Dolphin.

I don't fucking care, play some fucking games already not shit you already played 20 years ago, everyone played that shit, play some fucking games. Just play some fucking games.

I honestly believe it's getting worse these days. The new blood have made the emulator unstable and the new UI annoys me more than anything and it feels buggy and unintuitive as shit compared to other QT emulator frontends.

>Also R&C is infamously CPU intensive
works on my machine

>everyone played that shit
I've never touched Klonoa, Jak and Daxter, or Ratchet and Clank.

Yeah, that's why I'm saying it's impressive it runs so well.

Jak 2 was known to be broken and it has since became near perfect. Take you meds

Pretty sad but that's as entry level as it gets on the PS2. When are you going to start playing more PS2 games? After this thread? A week from now? You aren't getting any younger.

>What's the deal guys?
just autistic hardware purists crying about "cycle accuracy" for literally _no_ reason

Literal schizo behavior, take your meds.

Clean it up jannies

Cycle accuracy is one thing, broken textures and post processing effects is another.

What an obnoxious tryhard.

Really tapping that PS2 library. What's next, Madden 05? "Fear the D!"

Playing more and more games isn't really my endgame in life, user. I play plenty of other games. Right now, I'm sitting down and eating while reading through some threads on Any Forums. Would you like me to also inform you of when I go take a shit later so you know exactly what I'm up to when I'm not playing video games? Kill yourself.

>ugh...playing games? Why would I ummmm play games? On a board about playing games? Hello??
What inspires this sort of feminine passive aggression? Men of passivity, not of action. Those who do not play games talk like this.

stop being a faggot

You are an impressive breed of schizo. Godspeed user. Keep on doing whatever it is you're doing.

Define mid tier build. I have a i5 6600 and GTX 970 and it runs the games I care about (Armored Core, Dragon's Crown, Demon's Souls) reasonably well. I say reasonably because I don't know if Demon's Souls can actually run any better.

Start playing games.

How do I make this shit work without lag? I can use Dolphin without prob but this shit is always slow af

99% of the problems people have with it would disappear if they just used Software rendering.
>b-but I can't increase the resolution
So the game looks how it's supposed to? What a shame.

99% of the problems don't even need software mode to fix. And the reason software mode isn't advised isn't because of the resolution but because of the performance cost. It's extremely demanding on your hardware in most cases.

Fuck off I needed to test my FFMPEG!

>still no QT for linux

What a hell.

You'd be right.

How do the ratchet games Run? Can they do 60 FPS? If it helps I have a decent computer 5800 X 3070

The Emotion Engine, prior to 2011, was a tad difficult to emulate with Your average home CPU.

More powerful CPUs today, not as many complaints.

I'm mainly just looking to replay some of those HD remasters

Back when Pcsx2 was a thing, I only would play like one game at a time so it didn't bother me. I wasn't trying to have a meme library of every PS2 game
