hey does any1 any1 know of a setup tat can run a ps3 game on a pc????like a bios emulator....well this might sound a stupid question but....i ve been droolin over the various games they release for the console....especially single player rpg.....but there r very few of them for the pc....if not a ps3 then atleast a ps2????im desperate!!!

so wat abt tat emulator???tge one for ps2....is it runnable on a avg system???/mines an athlon x2 4400 with 2 gb ram??i really do wanna play the ff series....so bad they dont release it for pc....

well i dont wanna spend tat much.....im a pc guy through n through........so mr "mi1ez"...if u have any real suggestions???

I just thought if you were interested in playing more than one ps2 game it would be worth the minor investment.

The way the initial post was worded...

...I got the impression you already had the discs and just wondered if there was a way to play them on your PC.

Sorry for my mistake!

there's games on the ps3? I thought there was only blu-ray movies..

so is a dual cor athlon enough for ff10???im also plannin for a 8800 gt....

I watched that a while back lol, I don't think the list has changed since then..

Since you're doing it for more than PS2 games, I'd say it'll be worth it. If you need advice on parts for a gaming rig, go ahead and post here: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/forum-31.html

Good point! As to the future of PS3 emulation and compatibility, consider titles like Fallout 3, which was released with lowsy optomization and riddled with glitches and errors. They've since released a patch for some of said problems, but if they intend to fix them all we are a long way off. If a PS3 emulator existed today, one encounter with a PS3 halting error would be enough to crash your emulator if not your entire box.

PCSX2 has come a long way over the past year, but still needs a year or two to mature. Some games run perfectly, some run, just REALLY slowly, and some run with distorted graphics.

The issue is you need the PS2 BIOS files in order to run games. So you need to get them of your PS2 (I don't even know if the act of copiying the BIOS of a system you own is legal...though who would ever know?).

Sorry, you can't, I assue you of this. And sorry if my "scamsenese" is tingling right now...

My thoughts exactly.

Also, PCSX2 0.9.6 came out yesterday, and works far better than 0.9.4 did. Even RE4 is showing playability now...

As above, PCSX2 is a good PS2 emulator, but probably needs another year or two. Some things work perfectly though, and most are playable with bugs.

Note, I'm assumung you actually own the disk. Thats fine. Not owning the disk, however, is not fine. And not getting the BIOS legally from a real PS2 is also not fine.

I need to correct my post 2 above: PCSX2 0.9.6 now runs much, much better, and I now qualify it as an emulator where you can expect X game to work properly (albiet with a few glitches/speed issues). PCSX2 pretty much requires a quad though; even an OC'd QX9650 has issues keeping speeds >50fps at times, and the emulator has full multicore support...

PCSX2. Of course, I WILL report any attempts to post/link to any BIOS files here, so don't even try. Emulation is legal, downloading ISO's and the BIOS is not, k?

I've been planning to write an emulation guide for dummies, and will probably get around to it this week. I'll start with NES/Arcade, and go from there. I'll cover basics, terms, and (my) preferred emulators for each system, some notable games that test emulation, history, etc, from NES to PS2.

Again, Emulation is legal, but I will not point anyone to where to get copyrighted stuff. (The courts have held that time and again). If any of the mods has any questions on the issue, send a PM in a day or two before i start the topic...(some forums get a bit jumpy when the emulation topic starts )

please please find out if i could play my ps3 games on my pc because im desperate to play:cry:

This won't happen for a very long time. It took almost 10 years for the PS2 emulator to be half-assed decent on computers. The pS3 is a far more complex piece of kit.

The computer in my sig runs Pcsx2 and the FF games flawlessly. Playing FF with save states is dirty, lol.

I am going to go out on a limb here, and guess that this is a piracy based request.

PS: once you can get a couple gladius from the named wolf in the western desert the game pretty much becomes a cakewalk, in case you weren't aware, heh.

Yeah, the game could have benefited dynamically from decresing melee power by a goo 30-50%.

After experiencing a corrupted save state way back in using epsxe, I use 3 at a time (save it 3 times at each spot). Of course, i haven't had a single corrupted SS since I started doing that, heh.

This could be a daft question. If you download Windows on to your PS3 would you be able to play PC games on the PS3? If not, is there any way to play PC games on PS3, without simply streaming them from PC to PS3 (coz my lap top wouldn't be great for playing games on)

Different arches; Windows isn't designed to take advantage of a 256 bit interface, much less deal with 512MB RAM...
