You can play them on an emulator. You can even connect a Dualshock 3 controller to your PC, and it'll be just like playing on the "specialty hardware" it was made for.
Is PS2 emulation that accurate now?
Yeah, same with Gamecube (via Dolphin).
PS3 emulation has a way to go yet.
It is for me. Has it not been accurate enough for your use?
I hadn't had a capable enough machine to do PS2 emulation smoothly until I also didn't have enough time to spend time playing them, lol
I've fixed the computer issue, and I'll be fixing the time issue soon! Lol
Yes. Not 100% perfect for all games, but close.
Holy crap. That's a huge milestone!
I remember when PS1 emulation was still spotty...
Yeah, and with PS3 and 360 emulation still being pretty spotty, it will probably be the limit of near-100% emulation of a system for a while.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Yes.
