Love PCSX2. I play a lot of old games as they have a charm to them and no micro transactions

Same! Have you played the Ratchet and Clank original trilogy? The old games have this special charm to them that I don’t really see in the newer games of the series.

If you happen to have easy access to the ROM, how’s “Star Wars: Racer Revenge” run?

It’s the less popular but more fleshed out spiritual successor to the N64 pod racing game - the PS2’s take nailed the physics - the two engines and racer pod are (or at least feel like) three separate entities, and playing in first person view with the engines controlled separately by the left and right joysticks feels fucking magical.

Tried to run it on PCSX2 years ago, but it was one of the few games that meshed so poorly with the emulator that it wasn’t playable. I’m guessing the emulator has seen some improvements since then - could definitely use a nice shot of nostalgia.

I haven’t played that game yet! But there’s an excellent wiki which allows you to check each game’s compatibility. It looks as though the game has some issues with visual glitches when rendering in hardware mode. In software mode, it is rendered more accurately but the resolution cannot go beyond PS2 native.

I haven’t played much of the older ones, but I really enjoyed Rifts Apart. It’s beautiful, but it’s also mechanically super polished and fluid, and while the storytelling isn’t really my style, I think they do it reasonably well.
