===Comparisons===
;[[PCSX2]]:The first and only PS2 emulator currently worth using. That said, it is underwhelming in the accuracy department, with thousands of bugs and graphical glitches. However, since version 1.6, the accuracy has greatly improved. The emulator is capable of playing 2535 2608 games without any major glitches (regardless of speed) and playing 48 29 games at a non-playable speed or with major graphical or accuracy glitches. Check the [[Game problems FAQ#PS2|Game Problems FAQ]] for the most difficult titles.
;[https://github.com/PSI-Rockin/DobieStation/ DobieStation]: Hundreds of titles go ingame, more accurate than Play! and even PCSX2 in some cases, but way slower than both at the moment. Designed to be fast, accurate and easy to use. An [[Android emulators|Android]] port is planned. Making rapid progress
;[[DamonPS2]]:Closed source emulator only for Android. Extremely shady, probably Definitely (this was proven) uses some stolen PCSX2 code and might steal your data(sends data to it's remote servers, nobody knows why and for what purposes, as "developers" themselves never openly came out with admitting this). Although it is much faster than [[Play!]], compatibility still lags behind [[PCSX2]]. DamonPS2 should be avoided at all costs, as even in Google Play store it's being largely treated as a scam and highly likely malware that disguises itself as "emulator". DamonPS2 is basically a pirated version of PCSX2 for Android. [https://pcsx2.net/286-the-pcsx2-team-s-statement-regarding-the-damonps2-emulator.html Pcsx2]. Here are some Chinese responses, they stated that DamonPS2 did not plagiarize, so PCSX2 failed to launch DMCA to DamonPS2 on Google Play Store.:[https://tieba.baidu.com/p/5540262646 Site]:[https://www.zhihu.com/question/267082985/answer/323834856 zhihu.com].
;[[Play!]]:Can run quite a few commercial games but is still pretty far behind [[PCSX2]].
;[[sourceforge:projects/hpsx64/|hpsx64]]:Can also run quite a few commercial games, but probably less so, and at slower speeds, than Play!. It also emulates and focuses more on [[PlayStation emulators|PlayStation]] emulation.
