Emulated PS2 games online?

Online Forums Computer/Handheld

PS2 emulation is doing really well these days over @ http://pcsx2.net

i can run flawlessly (without any framerate drops or graphical glitches) the following games:

  • Marvel vs Capcom 2
  • Capcom vs SNK2
  • King Of Fighters 2002 Ultimate Match
  • King Of Fighters 98 Ultimate Match

on a pretty modest computer too: Intel Core2 Duo CPU E7400 @ 2.74 GHz, ATI Radeon HD 3850, 2 GB RAM

GGAC and Street Fighter Alpha Anthology have some emulation problems currently. i couldn’t get them to run well.

this emulator has savestate support and most of all: it is open source!
since the Naomi emulators development is so stale and closed source (because of ego trips and whatnot)… maybe someone could add support for kaillera p2p module at least.

spread the word please.
make sure you let every damdai’s and Ponder’s out there know about this :smiley:

we need dat marvel baybee online :smiley:

its still going to take a while… unless u try hamachi which i highly doubt that will work

I have tried Arcana Heart and KOF XI in it as well, and from what I recall they both work (although AH took a quite a bit of fiddling with settings).
These days I try not to use my real PS2 unless absolutely neccesary since the laser seems to be finally giving up soon… It’s pretty old though so I guess it is to be expected.

You know your specs are out of the ordinary for most of this board Aquashark. Still, it would be very interesting to see.

After trying out the emulator I’m very impressed. Hopefully there will be a p2p module. Atleast theres hope in this project because it’s open source…

Are you using any of the speedhacks? Are you using the latest Gsdx or something older? Is normal frameskip or VU on?

Thanks. I’m surprised there are no artifacts with all of the speed hacks enabled.

10

the speedhacks refer to CPU stuff (cycling speed, sync etc.)

11

ok fellas, fellas, fellas.
i have a mac…and i already suffer because i cant get ggpo.
is there a mac version?

12

this emulator is easier to get working than the dreamcast emulator i have.
highly recommended.

13

Nevertheless they cause visual problems. Try Rumble Fish with 3x EE Sync hack.

14

interesting…

15

nobody has an answer?

16

There is a Mac version but I doubt you’ll get far with it. http://forums.pcsx2.net/forum-61.html

I beg to differ. I spent more time with the ps2 emulator and I still couldn’t get it working. I kept getting a black screen wasting cpu cycles. I tried pretty much everything.

18

thank you. i’ll check it out

19

Mine runs fine except that I get like black lines like if it was chomping the characters. My specs are intel core quad, 750 Nvidia GForgece graphics card, 4GB of ram, windows vista 64 bit.

the specs for needed for 2d games are actually reasonably low. a friend of mine gets 60fps on 2k2um with his 2yr old dell.
