PlayStation 3 emulators
Revision as of 20:33, 28 July 2014 by 169.139.19.173 (talk) (No reason to give a ball park guess over how many years it will take before it's considered "useable". Even the active developers have no idea when it will be stagnant and supportive of bigger, more powerful games.)
The PlayStation 3 (known shorthand as PS3) is a console by Sony, released in 2006/2007. This console is notorious for being difficult to work with, due to the newly-introduced Cell Broadband Engine architecture that no game developer outside of Sony has worked with prior to launch.

RPCS3 | Windows, Linux | SVN | ✓ | ✗ |
Short Waves | Windows | 0.0.2 | ? | ✗ |
Comparisons
- RPCS3 is at its very early stages, and it shows a lot of promise. It can boot quite a few commercial games right now, (albeit most of them run at <1FPS, have heavy glitches, and crash pretty early on) and even more games can boot their splash screens.
- Short Waves was made by an unknown developer. It's not known whether the emulator is active or not.
