minus-squareBlackmist@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·2年前Yeah, same with Gamecube (via Dolphin). PS3 emulation has a way to go yet.
minus-squareKayn@dormi.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2年前It is for me. Has it not been accurate enough for your use?
minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2年前I hadn’t had a capable enough machine to do PS2 emulation smoothly until I also didn’t have enough time to spend time playing them, lol I’ve fixed the computer issue, and I’ll be fixing the time issue soon! Lol
minus-squaresamus12345@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-22年前Yes. Not 100% perfect for all games, but close.
minus-squareotp@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2年前Holy crap. That’s a huge milestone! I remember when PS1 emulation was still spotty…

Yeah, same with Gamecube (via Dolphin).
PS3 emulation has a way to go yet.
