Resources
- PCSX2 Wiki - For checking if your games work and any fixes/tweaks/settings you should know beforehand. The wiki is very outdated and unfinished, so personal testing is usually a must.
- PlayStation 2 DataCenter - Tons of PS2 related things. Emulator files like plugins, game manuals, game configurations, and many tutorials are just some of things you'll find here.
