As someone pointed out, ShadPS4 is the emulator. It apparently works well now. Depends on your PC but I think 60fps high resolutions is achievable.

Oh no, look at me. It was 3am when I commented. Thanks mate.

Rpcs3 is always there to be added as a non Steam game

You’re into Linux because either you want to escape capitalism/closed source monitoring every aspect of your life, or because muh freedom.

Yeah that too was a big reason why I stopped.

Mental outlaw is a bit of nutter IMO. I couldn’t live with that level of paranoia, so I stopped watching him.

Not if you’re the shareholder of a company suffering from a zero day exploit.

I’m not that interested in the game but very glad people seem to be liking it.

Agreed, just like any other emulation. The term “legal” threw me, because most people don’t have personal ROMs of PS2 games hanging around.

Ah fair enough lol. Reading comprehension issue of the day for me.

How is this legal? Very glad it exists

That’s a game selection issue IMO. Busy people shouldn’t play games they don’t have the time to get invested into. AAA design and marketing has pushed this idea that every game has to be this big 100 hour open world RPG narrative adventure, but there’s so much good stuff out there that’s over in less time or doesn’t demand huge play sessions.

Might as well just straight up jack it instead of thinking about the game at all.

Thanks for introducing me to PEBKAC, great term.

I’m picturing a toddler seeing a soldier get beheaded by an arrow from horseback, looks over at Dad for emotional support, and Dad looks on with an approving grin, comfortable that he’s made the right choice of early childhood films.

Also, The Matrix/Terminator as a suggestion for a small child is a big lol.

There’s only a handful of games worth playing that a 10 year old mid-range computer can’t play anyway. I don’t see the point of upgrading for Indianna Jones or COD.

I thought it was one of the better LTT videos for sure. Torvalds is much better on camera than he claims to be and it was interesting to see his outlook on a broad range of questions.

Yeah I checked myself and Bazzite has an Nvidia version now. Installed it last night and it is working great. No Steam Machine needed it seems. The Frame does appeal to me still.

Using 1440p, I’ve not had any major issues with 8GB. It has been a bottleneck that has forced me to turn some resolution/texture settings down though. Indiana Jones is an example that stands out for running poorly, but I’m not buying a new system for that game to run better.

I’d argue it’s also for people who want sleep and resume on a PC for that console experience. I have a 3070ti system, which is older and mid now but still smokes the steam machine, and I’ll be “downgrading” to this because I consider quick resume an upgraded experience. Most games I play don’t even need that power.
