'''Are there emulators for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 or PlayStation Vita?'''

~~Yes! See~~ the ~~following pages for more information~~:

It varies. The PlayStation Vita's best emulator is [[Vita3K]], with a substantial amount of games supported. PlayStation 4 emulation is still in a very early state, with the most promising efforts being shown by [https://github.com/red-prig/fpPS4/ fpPS4], though most commercial games are still unsupported. There are currently no actively developed PlayStation 5 emulators.

For more information on these system's emulators, check the following lists:

*[[PlayStation 4 emulators]]

*[[PlayStation 5 emulators]]

*[[PlayStation Vita emulators]]

~~Note that all emulators are very early in their development and though they're always getting better by the day, they are not stable.~~

'''Are there emulators for the Xbox One yet?'''

No. <u>~~Many~~ that you come across on YouTube videos and the like are scams or malware.</u>

No. <b>Any that you come across on YouTube videos and the like are scams or malware.</b>

It's either interlacing or a filter in the game itself. For the former, switching the de-interlacing mode with F5 may help but may cause flicker or screen shaking. For the latter, hacks are required. Either Aggressive-CRC if the game is listed there, or skipdraw (toy with the number, 1-100) might work otherwise.

Simply sitting farther back from the screen (~~similar~~ to how one would normally sit away from a CRT TV) can also reduce the noticeability of the blur filter.

===Black lines in PS2 games===

Those lines are caused by scaling to a non-integer internal resolution (anything other than XxNative), texture filtering (Check that ~~shit~~ off or to half at most), improperly offset textures(TC offset hack, Wild Arms hack), or improperly handled texture edges(Sprite hack). Native resolution, for the most part, fixes those, but software rendering may be required as well.
