Also, rec specs: 4 - 5 Ghz machine 1024MB RAM X1800 / Geforce 7800 GT And thats to be running the games at (an average of) 30 fps. I've been following the development for PCSX2 since its inception. |
Sure... but it was developed blindly, from scratch, by a bunch of basement programmers. Sony's programmers have every advantage by comparison. And where a PC has to do all of its emulation by brute force because it's such a fundamentally different machine, the PS3 should be much more compatible - I mean, as far as I know, most PS3's in the world still actually contain the PS2 in its entirety within the case.
I'm no tech expert, but I don't think I buy the technical limitation theories. So, I dunno... maybe it's in development but it's taking a really long time, or maybe they made a business decision not to bother with it. Which would be a huge shame, if you ask me.
