As I said emulation is slow. This is due to the fact that in a sense a PC need to create a simulation of the PS2 hardware in order for the games to run. That then needs to be translated to directx so that our modern graphics cards can actually render the graphics. It's much more complicated and time consuming to do this compared to running PC native games that area all ready in directx or openGL format.

Think of it this way. Running a PC native game on a PC is like reading a book in your native language (Enligh for example). Running a PS2 game on a PC is like trying to read a book that's in a foreign language (Latin for example). Even if you have a dictionary its going to take you much longer to read the book that's in Latin em I right.

It's not easy.

Nowadays you can emulate a PSX on an 1GHz Scorpion (Snapdragon S3) tongue.gif

PCSX2 devs said by 2020 PC's may be able to get to the PS3's menu's, but that's about it.

XenoSaga is another one that requires a minimum of a 4GHZ CPU, and even my old GTX470 would peak out @ 99% GPU usage in it and use over 1GB of VRAM.
And PCSX2 is actually well done, only Sony could do better and not by much.

SoTC is one of the most demanding games on PCSX2, but I think if you use speedhacks it would run on full speed

Nope, the developers said due to the nature of the game, full speed is most likely impossible. Even using speed hacks, it only reports 30 FPS, but it isn't.

And a PSP doesn't emulate PSX so much as runs it natively.

That cleared it up a bit. I never even considered the whole DX9/10/11 and open GL thing.

Seem like this forum full of people calling console gamers peasants and ignorant is full of people ignorant about emulation, ironic isn't it.
