@ki_charger yeah, pretty nice game + some history to it directly related to PC UT99 (Xan Mark II and Warboss originated from the PS2 port and are one of if not the only characters that use skeletal animations in the PC version)
Good video. Although PCSX2 is the best way to play PS2 games if you're making UA-cam Videos, it isn't the best way to play PS2 games overall. A scan converter is the best way to play PS2 games now as not only do they convert the SCART and component signals to HDMI, you also get the option to upscale to 1080p and even 4k if you're stupid enough to pay £700 for a Retrotink 4k. You would need to have a spare power outlet for them and another remote, but trade off of having not having emulation glitches is worth it. You also have the added benefit of it working on most consoles, not just the PS2. Just like as you stated near the end of your video old consoles will break, but the PS2 is reliable, and easily fixable if it does break. You can even remove the disc drive and install an SD card slot. This reduces the amount of movable parts, making it even more reliable.
I have a pentium core 2 quad q9550 and gt 1030, Plays gt4 well sometimes lags in some circuits and when there is too much cars in front of you, But overall playable.
Well, as the emulator gets more accurate, it will be more demanding for that i7 CPU from 2012, the reason it ran smoothly was because back then, the emulator was fast but not that accurate compared to today.
@@MGViolent What? You can easily prove this using Core i7 3770K vs i7 4790K where 4790K has AVX2 but 3770K don't. You will stutter with 3770K but not with 4790K

Finally, the ultimate HD UT99 PS2 experience
wouldn't you just play the pc version?
@ki_charger yeah, but I liked the PS2 version, it was surprisingly good
@@Quiver333_real reckon it's worth adding to my ps2 collection? it would be nice to play it on my crt tv
@@Quiver333_real is it worth picking up for my ps2 collection?

Cool guide.

Just go with component or HDMI. You won't be dissapointed I swear. This console has the best library ever to exist and it's never going to be beaten.

Meanwhile I'm running on ryzen 5 5600 and gtx 1080ti
An i7 from 2012 is more than enough for pcsx2.
I used to run that smoothely on core 2 duos

this emulator has noticeable input lag and the games still look cooler on a CRT so i prefer og hardware
No.
Unless your CPU is really really Old.
Any CPU with AVX2 can run this emulator even at 4K without any input Lag.
AVX2 is a must.

Noticeable input lag is a myth unless you're using a potato pc.
