2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

So the next in my long line of developer chats is here. I got to talk to Whatcookie, a developer from the PlayStation 3 emulator, RPCS3, and ask them all about their work with the emulator! If you're interested in programming, emulation or the old PS3 days, then you might find this one interesting.

Oh, and I've done a fairly long list of these now. Way too many to list, but I've got a couple of special ones still on the way before I focus on writing something different for awhile.

Hope you enjoy it! :)

Bro whatcookie had like the exact same experiences I had at that time! Never owned a PS3 until the lock down cause I wanted to play demon's souls, cause I have a been a souls fan since dark souls prepare to die on PC! Also the PS3 I bought was the slim, just like yours. And until now, I didn't think any of my systems could handle the emulation of it and your telling me my steam deck can‽ I mean, it's kind of a moot point as I already have an actual PS3 that's been letterbombed and multiman'd. But knowing I can take grand Turismo 6 on the go with me if pretty fucking dope!

Lollipop Chainsaw runs great, and, with fps and resolution patches, RPCS3 is the best way to play it!

For uncharted work on this yet? It’s the main ps3 game I’m interested in trying.

That's fascinating stuff, thanks!
