You will never ever have the real experience when emulating. Don't even bother coping and dilating towards me because you are wrong.

When the Xbox 360 released

when batman arkham asylum released

PSP was kino though.

Yeah i will never experience silky smooth 18 fps

I own a modchipped PS2 slim though

if it were easy to play a game on hardware compared to emulating it I'd do it but I'm not paying 200$+ just to play some old vidya

I won't have the real experience, I'll have a better one.

Now go dilate you seething tranny.

This.

The sheer number of videos like this on Youtube is shocking. There are actual NPCs in this world who look at that shit and think nothing is wrong.
