u forgot about ps1 emulator. there are plenty work well. some even better than ps1 itself

I just love how people who can afford to buy a state of the art rig but can't afford to get a Playstation 2. No offense , but its better to get PS2 if you just want to play couple of games

It requires a lot of CPU Power as keep in mind , you're emulating the main CPU , the graphics co-processor , vector processors and so on. It needs more RAW CPU Power and GPU Power as well. So if you have a mid-range rig , its not recommended !

Well I do have mine and currently I am playing Kingdom Hearts 2 and it doubles as my media center !

that rig could do to run GT4
but i think not that smooth than you think.

back then PSone emulator works really well
but PS2 emulator ... the games are not playable on my PC
guess i will be going back to my good ol' fat PS2 for gaming, going to get Tekken 5 (some arse borrowed from me and never returned ) and Soul Calibur 3 after i graduate

lol.. yalor.. but I do finish Final Fantasy XII with PCSX2 emulator using my Xbox360 gamepad.

ya, i played super robot war on that emulator also, core2duo 2.26 + 9600M GT running it at near perfect speed, just that one some stage, i need to adjust the frame skip, but most of the time i am getting full speed

Whats the point of having a rig to emulate a PS2 that cost too much, when you can have a PS2 that cost cheaper?

You get to record your game on the pc to post on youtube as high definition, then crappy quality.

A lot of reason than cannot get a ps2 la. One thing, to play ps2 u need tv as well so the price actually doubled and tripled for flat screen. Then came space. Also the availability of tv (like if ur mom is watching dramas) and privacy (without the prying eye of ur parents when u play *cough XXX game, lol). If u talking about a tv card, that's still in debate as I heard a couple of guys that say u need a really good card = expensive to get it to run smoothly even with ps2 at hand.

there's hardly any xxx games for ps2....
also, tv box for pc monitor output is relatively cheap

can you play ps2 using the pc monitor?
that will save cost for the TV.

so much bad comment here i think i'll stick with my ps2 console..ps1 works fine in pc anyway

yes
u need a tvbox/videobox though
can convert the output to ur monitor screen

PS2 Emulator most likely is an attemp of people to challenge Sony technologies. But for truely supports all games is a nightmare. If you intend to run RACING games with emulator... Woah... I think you already got the money to buy 10x PS2, as people already mentioned.

If you really bored, well you can try. But prepare to handle the LAG~~~

Ever heard of BMX XXX

Comparing to PC XXX games PS2 BMX XXX was nothing but a teaser..

Oh yeah , thought of giving this emulator a shot - I managed to extract ROM from my PS2. It was quite okay and tested it goether with the emulator. I can post some screenshots later of Kingdom Hearts 2.

Not bad , getting around 30-40fps but again its not smooth at all as in there are frame drops every now and then.

Not recommended as its not worth it. Unless you have like Quad Core or i7 with SLI , then yeah its worth it to play some old or exclusive games ! Other then that , no point
