minus-square@Whirlybird@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglish12•3 months agoWith how much of a beast of a PC you need to use RPCS3 at a good framerate, I wouldn’t hold much hope for an Android PS3 emulator.
minus-square@cron@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglish8•3 months agoRPCS3 runs well on a steam deck, which is not exactly a beast.
minus-square@windowsphoneguy@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglish4•3 months agoDepends a lot on the game, Ridge Racer 7 is easy to run for example. Playing it on 5600X + RX 6800 at 4x scaling with rock solid 60 FPS. I’m sure some powerful phones could run games at native res and 30 FPS
minus-square@cron@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglish2•3 months agoMaybe, but well-known PS3 exclusive titles like “the last of us” won’t run.
minus-square@potustheplant@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglish1•3 months agoThat’s no longer an exclusive, there’s a PC remake. You could’ve picked a better example.
minus-square@cron@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglish1•3 months agoI’ve picked this game as an example, as it is one of the best looking PS3 games. But you’re right, it has been remade.
minus-square@Whirlybird@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglish0•3 months agoSure if all you want to play are small indie PSN games, but that’s not what people want a PS3 emulator for.

Compared to a phone it is.
