minus-squareWhirlybird@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·1 month agoWith how much of a beast of a PC you need to use RPCS3 at a good framerate, I wouldn’t hold much hope for an Android PS3 emulator.

minus-squarewindowsphoneguy@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 month agoDepends a lot on the game, Ridge Racer 7 is easy to run for example. Playing it on 5600X + RX 6800 at 4x scaling with rock solid 60 FPS. I’m sure some powerful phones could run games at native res and 30 FPS
minus-squarecron@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 month agoMaybe, but well-known PS3 exclusive titles like “the last of us” won’t run.
minus-squarepotustheplant@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 month agoThat’s no longer an exclusive, there’s a PC remake. You could’ve picked a better example.

Compared to a phone it is.
