When Xbox has more back compact PlayStation games than Sony themselves…
@JC Denton most of the PS Games are even only Streamed and not locally saved means hard input lags, with the PS Sub.
@@ExTremZero Not for the few PS2 games they have, PS3 games are streamed
Tbh, while backwards compatibility is nice, I prefer that Sony puts their focus on next-gen games
@@SleepyJohannes like all the $70 remasters? 🤣
@@SleepyJohannes sadly its mostly next-gen remasters these days
One thing this video forgets to mention is that XBSX2 also has networking support and can be used to play many PS2 games online through many of the available online revival servers out there. (the full socom series, the full ratchet and clank series, gt4 online beta, killzone 1, midnight club, etc)
Wait what?! Dude you made my week!
holy shit !
Online Midnight Club peaked my interest
Even THUG2?
sweet
The Series X backwards compatibility is so good, it's even compatible with competitor consoles!
Even Series S does most of it. So cheap too especially if you buy a used console.
What?
@nambu1080 Tell MS that since they even support it themselves and all it takes is $20 dollars and a bit of set up. Sony really needs to step up with the BC
What the heck does your comment imply?? “It’s even compatible with competitor consoles”???! Seriously! That is such a idiotic statement
Being able to run everything from a USB stick is huge. I can just swap my usb stick between my Series S & X depending on what room I’m playing in. Also, the XBSX2 makes it so easy to swap between MCD001 (memcard) files.
External hard drive is far more reliable. Never had a USB stick not fail on me
Good 4 u pointing this out
@@olsonbryce777 Definitely. USB sticks take a beating running programs like this, they aren't designed for it. It's like running on a micro SD card.
@@olsonbryce777 I don’t doubt that. I just don’t have an external drive spare to use.
Me who has neither
I gotta say, PS2 emulation looks spectacular on the Xbox Series S/X
It's my preferred way to play GTA 3, Vice City, and San Andreas. Maintains the PS2's superior artistic diretion while playing at 2160p@60fps.
You don't have issues with the game physics running it at 60 FPS?
I thought it was tied to the frame rate
@@etaxalo 60fps fix, widescreen hacks, and other common pcsx2 hacks are easy to flag on where appropriate.
@@Armataan oh nice, thanks for the info
@@Armataan the art direction of the remasters are fine. it is Rockstars call with what they want to do with their art and if they choose something you dont like you should still respect that its their call. there is a generation of disrespectful know it all's that think they are smarter than everyone else and get mad when people do something that they dont like. i think its the high amount of autism that the popped up over the past few decades. yes, Justin Adams, i am calling you autistic or some sort of sperg. i truly believe that you are.
I just did this in retail mode for PS2, Dreamcast, and PSP on my Series X... I'm gonna be able to box up ALL my old systems now, this is amazing stuff...
Is there a guide on to do it for retail mode?
I am dumb how do I do this on Xbox x series in layman’s
The tunes MVG makes are always top-notch.
Are they his tracks?
@@Elkenders f
He doesn't make them from scratch tho
@@Elkenders He tends to use a lot of old classics, like ua-cam.com/video/VJyW3Y_9ijY/v-deo.html
I like the first original tune better. Idk why he changed it
4:50 I didn't expected Burnout 3 to look that good at higher resolutions but the game scaled beautiful. It's incredible to play it at 4k with the widescreen patch.
It is strange for me, that Burnout 3 is not included in the BackCompat List of Xbox1/Series. I mean, EA still sell the upscaled 720p version of it on the X360 Marketplace.
Omg
Burnout 3 had widescreen support on ps2 and original Xbox.
@@Deepstar from what I think I heard was it was music licensing issues like jet set radio future. There is a Xbox emulators on pc but would require porting to UWP and some graphics api that’s compatible for it to be on Xbox one and up.
It looks nice but the input lag is awful
Been playing a lot of PS2 on Series X and lots of games look great in 4k
I’ve been wanting to do it aswell I just don’t know how to download the ps2 games or where to get them from you know any website that’s safe to download from?
Wow. Im late.
Is their any lag. Can u play onimusha? Tenchu upscaled to 4k no lag. Tenkaichi 3???
@@fruityice1873 Dragonball Z 3? If so then that seems to work great at 4k but I'm not familiar with the game per se, I've played Onimusha Warlords and that has some transparency issues on hardware renderer but it's so minor an issue that it doesn't bother me. I haven't played either extensively however.
@@jimmelton5846 thank u so much 4 ur help. Am itching 2 play tenkaichi 3 modded iso😀
Was waiting for this one! I've been absolutely loving the experience of using XBSX2 on my Series S, glad to see you're feeling the same!
Was thinking of getting my PS2 hooked up to the TV via HDMI adapter or something but XBSX2 is an interesting alternative to put on either my Series S or X. Would you recommend it instead of native PS2?
@@NervousNoodles well you get Achievement support with emulators so it will further enhance your experience and keep you invested in the game.
@@NervousNoodles I can easily recommend doing this, especially if you've already got an Xbox Series console. The emulation has matured enough and the benefits of emulation are too good to pass up on imo
@@thecianoshow I've got a Series S (which I use mostly for older 360 / Xbox games when I'm traveling) and a Series X (which I use for the larger newer games). Next to them is a PS5 that quite frankly should be playing these games but that's Sony.
I'll give this a shot on the Series S, and if I like it, I'll move it to the Series X for regular play.
@@NervousNoodles Hopefully it works well for you!
Been using this for a while and it's amazing how well some of these games run and the community fixes/patches bring it up to the next level! I'm so happy that I can play OutRun 2006 again since OutRun Online Arcade is not back-compat on the XB1/Series.
its been disappointing. i have outrun 2006 up and running on series S, and it has periodic frame drops in the 50s for no discernable reason. its completely random. in software mode, the series S is too weak to run it at 60fps.
@@hydroxyzine1136 pcsx2 wiki is your friend
Question.. does it support original PS2 discs?
Thank you for making such a well informed video on XBSX2, I'm very happy to see the community enjoying all the work that went into it! 😁
And you didn't realized that this emulator is built upon stolen code.
@@AmirZaimMohdZaini bruh its open source, pcsx2 is open and xbsx2 is open, which means everbody can take it make some changes and call it sonething else (only w no profits)
@@AmirZaimMohdZaini I know this is the false narrative that the PCSX2 team is feeding everyone for some reason, nothing about the code is stolen, it was taken and expanded upon from an entirely public branch/commit of PCSX2, so much so that you can view the archive of said branch directly on the XBSX2 repo 🙂
@@AmirZaimMohdZaini Yeah ok. it was OPEN SOURCE which means everyones allowed to use it and they got the credit they deserve stop acting like this.
@@AmirZaimMohdZaini its built from an open source unfinished/abandoned uwp port. Stop believing everything steznek tells you.
This and Duckstation massively increased the amount of games I can make UA-cam playthroughs of. Very nice.
Wow this is even better than when I got Retroarch running for Wii/GameCube/PS2 emulation last year. Big step up in smoothness and ability to crank up the render resolution, both good things.
PS2 is definitely one of my favorite generations. The dream of portable ps2 is finally a reality now with the Steam Deck as well and I couldn't be happier. It looks awesome at native res on the small screen and runs 60fps
Yeah I too have wanted portable est access Ps2
Yeah I'm still shocked I can play old ps2 favorite on my phone and the games actually look better
most games have bad glitches, only big games work good
What PS2 emu? Does gow 1/2 run smooth? Thanks.
@@Postcoital_Clarity If you love the GOW Series you really should check out ETA Prime here on YT. 99% of his videos is about emulation on Android and Windows (occasionally ipad) and GOW is his go to for benchmarking different processors and emulators. That guy never makes a boring video.
4:31 On PCSX2 If you switch to 'software mode' just before loading a level, the sky will not be black and it will load normally. Then just use the f9 key to switch back to 'hardware mode' once the level loads.
No more black sky !
This is incredible. Big thanks to the community for allowing me these nostalgia trips with my 10 year old son... since Sony can't be bothered.
....on Xbox...
When Sony did bother, the gaming community spat in their face and they nearly went bankrupt.
Ever heard of the PlayStation 3?
Yeah, why buy a PS2 or ps3 if you can illegaly download and play all ps2 games on a xbox which costs more, right?
Nice role model for your 10 year old son...
@@kenshigo142 Lol wtf. PS2s and PS3s are discontinued, genius. Buy a used overpriced console? Yeah, how about no?
@@NewMilleniumDawn Oh, so the xbox was for free. I didn´t know that, i´m not a genius you know :)
Literally just got my series s to play ps2 and is one of the best gaming experiences ever
I really love how far PCSX2 has come in such a short time. Even Retro Achievements have become possible and I love the save state on shutdown feature. So many quality of life improvements make me happy. Long live emulation.
When you get excited and think you got noticed.
I've been using it and it's a blast to play the true trilogy of GTA in 4K.
Wow is there any video you have of it :)?
@@theshredguitarist25 I also would like to see how it runs/looks plus just so nostalgic the “defentive edition” really didnt do the games justice
I've been using this via retail mode, and it continues to get better!
how did you install it in retail mode ?
Thanks so much MVG for shining a light on this. I'm not too well-versed in emulation but the fact that my Xbox can do this is pretty damn cool!
stenzek has been on such a roll lately: Creating DuckStation, then bringing the UI used in that project over to PCSX2's Nightly Builds. And THEN all these improvements to XBSX2 (A project I didnt even know existed up until seeing this video).
Absolute legendary guy
@schm1dt Oh Jesus that is incredibly scummy. Kind of MVG's fault for improperly reporting on this then.
@schm1dt To get a full gist of the issue, it was resolved but Stenzek, in his typical manner, resorted to not actually responding to the porter and hides in the PCSX2 server bashing the fork and having a temper tantrum.
@schm1dt it wasnt stolen. The uwp project was abandoned, and he himself said anyone can continue work on it and compile it. He's just throwing his usual temper tantrum.
@schm1dt Ehh I think people already made their mind up on stenzek. While I personally dont always condone how he acts, I think his reaction is kind of justified. But yeah people have been giving stenzek shit ever since he threatened to stop development on Duckstation cause of RetroArch
Now making it so that you sabatoge the PCSX2 repo to not allow the guy to make a PR so the changes are UPSTREAM is also another act of him just having a temper tantrum. Nothing excuses those actions. It's just publicly showing you don't give a damn about the project, but just how much attention you get for it
This is the golden age of ps2 emulation, with aetherSX2 and this
Big Fact and it's only going to get better
This cross platform emulating is really amazing these days
Ps5 and series x are basically same hardware. Ps4 and one was too, I think. Everything has been basically just a computer these days. The switch is essentially a tablet with repurposed tech. It's still more of a console than the others. Consoles kinda died in the ps2 Era.
@@Zellonous
All consoles are basically a purpose built computer.
NES was not much more than a slightly customized 6502 CPU with a custom PPU.
The master system a Z80, Genesis a 68000+Z80
All of these are the basis of very popular computer systems of that day.
The main differences were that they are essentially a stripped to absolute minimum system to make the systems affordable and profitable.
Microsoft was the first popular system to use an actual intel based instructions set CPU in the original Xbox. The biggest difference between the Xbox and a pc of the time was how the memory was managed and shared between the CPU and IGP.
As we can extrapolate from these various emulators, much of the code is integrated and optimized from other emulator projects, CPU arcade boards etc.
So really none of this is new.
It's just the optimizations, accuracy, and the ability to emulate so many non platform native architectures so well.
@@wolvenar that's why I decided just to go all out on a rig. Why buy a PS5 or Xbox Series X right now, when every game these days is available on everything (Nintendo just be doing they own thing)
PS4 and Xbox One were essentially just stripped down X86 computers, like you said.
And in that case I'd just buy a gaming laptop and get amazing 4K emulation on all these 6th and 7 th gen consoles the big three finally successfully pushed me back to PC because everything on console got so watered down and lack originality to point of "why bothered?"
The only selling point they have right now is the ease of use and exclusive games which atm only two companies have and one are basically a consolized PC on subscription service with no unique content of its own.
I'll eventually buy a PS5 purely because they still honor physical media and they have their own VR headset.
Good thing we still have Nintendo doing their own thing or gaming would get very boring.
@@barebarekun161 only reason I have my eye on a PS5 eventually as well. I know Sony is definitely going offer something on par with the HTC Vive or Valve Index. Hopefully it's PC compatible as well.
I'm just blown away by how realistic Gran Turismo 4 looks even now, nearly 20 years after launch.
Because that is the only game the PS2 supports with 1080i if you connect to TV using component cable. It's already looking stunning with native hardware.
Been using xbsx2 for a few weeks now and it's fecking amazing there are retail modes for the app too.. you should have given a shout-out to gamer13 he's the one who got all this running in the first place
Duckstation was such a game changer. I only play ps1 games on my pc lately, front mission 3 most recently. I am sure pcsx2 will be amazing if it’s the same team working on it. Great strides in emulation are always exciting and the ps2 library is unmatched
Here fellow wanzers mercenaries 🤘
Also, about software rendering, it's very useful in games like Wrath of Cortex when special effects like fog break hardware mode
and sega rally championship which is black and white in hardware mode.
@@hydroxyzine1136 believe Pcsx2 just fixed that recently too
instant thumbs up for PS2- related content ^_^
Instant like for MVG
Few things in life are better than Xbox and PlayStation, now, combine the two, now that's nice
I had trouble setting up retroarch in dev mode setting up ps2 then found pcxs2 standalone and have had a great time replaying my childhood games.
That looks really impressive, might have to finally bite the bullet and get a series X.
Bite it 😋 it's an awesome console. Best one yet imo.
It also plays CDs DVDs Blu-ray 4K Blu-ray...
Been waiting for better emulation on the series console. Thanks for the video Dimitri
"XBOX is still the best way to play PS2 games" oh, the irony. Just imagine even thinking that in 2003.
Playing on series x in retail with retroarch and pcsx2 core. Some games run at full speed upscaling at 4k. Even without this fork. Cant wait to see the future of xbox emulation.
Thanks for the vids MVG.
Does that mean one doesn't have to sign up for developer mode/ options?
@@macias1236 yeah
How do I do this complete noob and know zero please help
It's on Retail too, by the way. The thing that sucks, is that the emulators are getting removed from the store really fast after being added. Apparently, at one point, they were even getting removed daily. Gamr13 decided to only re-submit/upload them again once a week. The biggest downside for me, is that since they're getting re-uploaded to the store, they're always considered separate apps. Meaning you don't get updates. If you want a more up-to-date version of the emulator, you have to download the whole app again, and copy all of your config files, boxart covers, bios files, and memory cards over from the old app to the new one.
There also doesn't seem to be an easy way to tell which version of the emulator you're using, or which version is currently being uploaded to the store. Meaning you don't actually know when you should be trying to update to a new version.
Here's a small tip: I can't personally find a way to make new Memory Cards in XBSX2. But what you CAN do, is download PCSX2 on your PC and make a bunch of blank 32mb memory cards, and just copy those cards over to XBSX2. Way better than using the default 8mb cards. I currently have 5 32mb cards on my XBSX2, 1 being used right now, and 4 extra empty ones.
Also, fair warning: If you have a slower, and older External Hard Drive that you're running your PS2 games off of, there's gonna be some freezing. It'll freeze every so often for about a second or two, then go back to running fine again. It's just the Hard Drive being a bit slow. Buying a faster newer one should solve that issue. I only mention it, because I couldn't figure out why mine were doing that, and it took an annoying amount of googling and asking on UA-cam before I finally got an answer.
And not EVERY game is gonna run perfect. Most games I've tried, run fine in Hardware emulation mode, with upscaled graphics and everything. But SOME games here and there, need to be switched to Software, and those can't be upscaled to look nicer, you're stuck with the original PS2 resolution. But they at least work. I've only come across 1 game so far that I can't get working at full speed, that being Juiced. I can get it to run between 45-50 FPS at best, setting it to DX12 mode.
Reading this do you think using a USB pen drive would be okay to run? That’s what I was hoping to use instead
@@BCKZLDN A USB stick will save everything. Thats how i'm doing it. That's on PCSX2, tho.
@@XL3BIGDrizzy Yeah thanks for that. I got it working no problem in the end
Wow, that's really great. If the Series S drops to $200 this holiday (or later on) I think I'll have to pick it up for emulation alone.
I'm not overly concerned about the limitations of the Xbox Series S. It's a 1080p system by design, right? So if it runs games smoothly at 1080p, that's more than good enough. It's not like I've got a 4K television set anyway!
Yeah but the games should better look real good and sharp then.
If I didn't know any better, those games could easily pass for PS3 games. I am amazed at how well the upscaled emulation looks.
PS2 was a huge step up over PS1.
@@dericjames2018 it was only held back by bad picture quality and aliasing. thankfully, both issues can be easily eliminated by emulators
Gamecube, xbox, ps2 all in one console thats some serious shit
Look how good PS2 looks when upscaled! THIS is the level of emulation i was expecting from Sony when the announced their Classics Program, same with Duckstation vs their PS1 emulator. They are sitting on a gold mine. Thank God for open source emulation.
Stenzek is an absolute legend. The advancements he made to PS1 & PS2 emulation is nothing short of incredible.
You can even play Outrun 2006 at 60FPS and 720p (it does struggle at 1080p).
It's a fantastic emulator!
Me meeting myself from 20 years ago: "Ey you wanna go play PS2 on the Xbox?"
Me 20 years ago: "Ye...wait what?"
Love the emulation scene so much haha.
MVG killed it with this Video
I plan to get a Xbox S Videos like this make me want it now
Finally, a standalone PS2 emulator for Xbox Series S/X!
Now we need a standalone version of Dolphin.
I agree thats what i kept saying
Add Cemu to list too
@@javiersaenz1040 Cemu doesn't have DirectX support, only Vulkan and OpenGL, and neither of those are supported on Xbox.
@@javiersaenz1040 The Steam Deck Supports Vulkan And OpenGL might wanna use that instead
Ps2 and gta vice city helped my fellow Marines and I to just sit there and escape after every single tough day after 9/11. Im sure talkin and sharing our emotions wouldve been more beneficial. But hey, we were teens in war. Great video as always. Always look fwd to them. 👍
I’m happy even now ps2 is still loved and it’s roster of games
You can find a Series S used for around $150-180 now too, l saw one at a thrift store and similar prices on eBay. Don’t think much matches that for the cost, maybe a lucky computer purchase from a business that is upgrading/closing down?
thank you for showcasing Burnout 3! Too bad there is still the sun showing through mountains at some points. Minor issue though and still highly playable
2022 is the year of PS2 emulation outside Windows.
Great video - I love seeing these emulators, and your coverage is informative and accessible.
This just goes to show that how much work the rPCS3 team has put into the rPCS3 Emulator. Even PS2 emulation hasn't been worked to perfection yet even though the console is more than 20 years old.
@@antomilanisti1899 About what nick/ga?
Nice video, would love to see you cover the AetherSX2 emulator on Android, it's quite impressive
MVG doesn’t really do mobile gaming stuff tbh.
@@Kofi_Mensahs_BurnerAccount well AetherSX2 is available for ARM PCs and Macs.
@@Kofi_Mensahs_BurnerAccount
That's true, tho MVG always has some nice insight into emulators and I'd really love to hear what he has to say nonetheless

@@Kofi_Mensahs_BurnerAccount who says anything about mobile gaming? he is talking about emulation. before you jump into being a smarta$$, you need to understand that mobile is just a computer like any other computer. Vita is based on mobile hardware, so is the Switch

I bought a backwards compatible ps3 a few years ago to play my ps2 library, but my word this app blows it out the water. Thank you to the people that made this a reality for console users ❤️
I said the same thing. I could literally sell my PS3 now lol
This was a very well written and accurate video!
@SensibleSoftware You're too kind. I'm just another guy on the internet.
Found ya, knew you would be here cough cough, Gam*e*r
Recently finished Soul Reaver 1, 2 and Defiance on the Series X. It runs really well, although there's some stuttering that seems to be related to audio (when loading a new audio track or dialogue).
I've got the same regarding the stutters and it's driving me mad.
This is awesome! I hope we get a standalone Dolphin uwp in the future!
This makes me really want Sony to implement emulators into the PS5 so you could take any generation PlayStation disc and play it from the ps1 to the ps3
you just need two consoles to play all generation of sony games - backwards compatible PS3 and PS5 :-)
@@TheOklepNot really. Only the launch Playstation 3 had back compat as the put an entire PS2 in the case.
there weren’t that many of them, and the broken pretty easily, I think there is a capacitor the fails on them.
that moment when an xbox can play more ps2 games than my ps5 with ps premium
that and i can actually use my own ps2 discs to get the game files (and if you have a disc drive on your pc you can play the game from the disc on pcsx2), unlike ps5 where i have to rebuy games in order to play them again, even though the disc is sitting in my room
Sad smh 😬🤣
Very cool. I tried PCSX2 as a RetroArch core on my Series X awhile back. Didn’t have much luck with the games I was trying to run. But now I just emulate everything on my Steam Deck.
I do not know how you manage to keep all the acronyms straight. That alone is an impressive feat of voicework, not to mention all the other work involved in this video. Keep up the great work man!
Playing PS2 game on a Xbox, what a time to be alive 😆 (remember me when i played Zelda Botw on pc with the Xbox controller). Every time this feels like futuristic stuff to me 🤣
now we need ps4 emmulator
i got a decent laptop and can run the spiderman remastered and god of war 2018 and emulators up to PS2 emulator and MOST of the wiiu games run fine (bayonetta 2) but only BOTW was unplayable, you must have a beast of a rig !! or using some kinda sorcery!!
The goal for me would be to run PS2 games from the actual disk using the series x disc drive.
That would be dope maybe one day 🤞
Not possible would be cool af but anyway it's actually is more convenient having everything in an external drive
not happening
Need a full CFW for that.
Ridge Racer's issues look like the most cursed UV layouts known to man
Man Outrun really needs to come back, Coast 2 Coast is such a good friggin game
the ps2 definitly was a step up in videogames, in march 2000, we officially upgraded to 32 bit gaming
God of War with internal upscaling looks almost as good as modern games lol
The Burnout skybox issue was fixed upstream not too long ago, so XBSX2 is built with very recent code, that's great
I wonder if Jak games still have texture/shadow mapping issues ... I really hope they're going to be fixed with a dedicated patch one day.
Just wanted to point out, the Paper Mario decompilation project is nearing completion at 86% (5% this month alone). Idk if it's on your radar, but I'm super excited about it.
OOOOOH! Perfect Dark was recently finished... now Paper Mario is progressing! Man, having PD/GE/SM64 and now PM... all native on PC? ahaha, what a time to be alive!
Hey, I was wondering if you were going to do a video about what those devs are saying about how the Series S is holding back the newest generation of consoles? Love your stuff man!
Here
ua-cam.com/video/QULb3kWPbH8/v-deo.html
When it comes to emulation, I would like to see you talk about accuracy, input latency, audio latency... For me, those are much more important than non-native resolution support.
Honestly some of this footage of these PS2 games look like 360 games, looks amazing
The audio on your vids always have very nice quality
I'm over here like a sucker playing on an original PS2 with a Retrotink5x.
Og is always best.
@@Richbroth agreed 👍
No. You ain't sucker. The only sucker when people went overly exaggerated to purchase Xbox Series console only for playing retro titles via installation of unauthorized apps. M$ sees more profit coming from console then realizing Xbox players never enjoyed the Xbox titles which it should be intended to play.
Also, some communities might already banning people from discussing about installing unauthorized apps like emulators.
Series S is a little monster and now I'm serious thinking about getting one. This is why you don't listen to toxic dbags that don't know what they are taking about because they are just artists with an axe to grind. Potato my foot.
Dude I have been playing the hell outta this since I got my xbox sx a couple of months ago. Thanks xbox for making my ps2 completely obsolete 🤠
I've got a sealed Series S in my workshop. Might have to bust it out for these emulators.
I was wondering about the pressure sensitivity, as some of you may know that the ps2 controller had a pressure sensitive buttons that are required to play certain games such as metal gear and socom 2, in socom 2 for instance the triangle button is for stance, so holding the button makes the character prone, half press is crouching and lite press is for standing. I also believe that you need a ps2 or a ps3 controller for it to work as for xbox controller buttons aren't pressure sensitive. so does this verson of the emulator has a workaround for this issue?
Hopefully you can map it to triggers and the D pad may also be pressure sensitive IIRC.
Some games have ingane settings to change to triggers (tokyo xtreme racer), xbsx2 also supports button mapping but have not used it yet because i have not had the need to use it
Xbsx2 has an apply pressure setting you map it to a button and hold it while you press the pressure sensitive button for it to register as a tap instead of a full press for socom I have it mapped to l2 and I hold that when I press triangle to crouch you are also able to play games online on xbsx2 there’s private servers up for a bunch of games just look up socom community and ps rewired
I have a USB adapter to use ps2/ps3/ps4 controllers on xbox, they work.
@@GSG-io8zp I did map it to LT once but it's annoying to remap all the controls and get used to it cuz of muscle memory, its a pain but its better than using a ps2 or a ps3 controller with a usb adapter.
Sony should hire these guys to help them improve their emulators
Sony doesn't want people playing older titles unless they're paying for them again (via ps premium for example). It's why they drag their feet on backwards compatibility.
@@cartermoth6447 which is why they should hire these guys to help them improve their emulators
I've been playing ratchet and clank up your arsenal and it's been running good🥰
As PS user isn't this pathetic that your competitor can play all PS1 and PS2 games with 4K while we pay extra money for PS premium and still did not receive a single PS2 game...
It’s embarrassing
The per-game config UI has been a game changer for PS2 emulation across the board. Probably the single most-important update to PCSX2 in the past 5 if not 10 years.
Holy shit! Amazing as ever
Quality content like always! Really like the emulator content. Wish sony would give us that option. If they were not so greedy on keeping old games digital for sales. The ps5 would be easy enough to run a ps2 emulation internally. Imagine ripping the game in straight from the disc and playing it without a hassle. Or atleast a pcsx2 app that plays from usb.
Would love to see a full how to guide for setting up on a series s.
Im not sure if you are using dev mode or retail, but this is what I used. Of course I used XBSX2 instead of AetherSX2 ua-cam.com/video/_qnmacyWjO0/v-deo.html
what's sony's excuse to not have ALL ps2 games running on the ps5 emulator now?
I'd like that these emulators had an option for the extraction of the ISO directly from the original discs because as a PS2 collector with more than 80 original games and since my PC doesn't have the Disc drive would save me a lot of time of I could put the games directly into the SX drive.
Love your content MVG! Keep up the amazing work/videos!!
Why can't sony do this?
I'd love to see a comparisson of XBSX2 and AetherSX2 in terms of performance, assuming there are any at all, considering they're both forked from stenzek's PCSX2 UWP package.
XBSX2 performs better
@@Retro_Gamer_89 how can you tell
@@Retro_Gamer_89 nah
@@bassram3337 XBSX2 is more updated than Aethersx2
Aww, you sound a little congested, hope you're okay. Get better soon if you aren't!
Damn, this makes me want a Series S
The Series S is way beyond everyone's early expectations.
Unless you're developing that mess called Gotham Knights lmao
Sony is taking so many L's this gen.
Absolutely
Awesome stuff. Been waiting for that Burnout 3 patch for so long!
Wow some games like GT4 still look stunning with HD rendering.
Can you do a comparison video on running games through dev mode emulation vs retail mode?
Can you cover the XBSX2 (Xbox One) Version @ModernVintageGamer ? I'd be interested in seeing how the Xbox One can handle PS2 Emulation, despite your claims of it running slow.
It aint going to happen on a standard xbox. The main reason the new xbox can handle ps2 is because of its 8 core cpu.
@@fatnugs3925 If there was no way the Xbox One/One X could run some PS2 games, then an Xbox One version of the Emulator wouldn't have had a reason to exist. If people can emulate PS3 on low end PCs better than what Sony themselves can do, I'm pretty certain that with enough refinement of the PS2 emulator over time that even the Xbox One Consoles could eventually run PS2 games flawlessly.
@@fatnugs3925 erm... the Xbox One also has an 8 core CPU. The difference is that the Series consoles have double the hardware threads per core (2 vs 1 on Xbox One), and double the clock speed.
@@halofreak1990 yeah, if you want to get technical about it. I thought it was a quad but no you're right. Its clocked in at 1.75. What i was trying to say is ps2 emulation wont work on the og xbox, very well anyway.
