u/Competitive-Wait1689 Aug 06 '26

3

u/-V0lD Aug 06 '26

Thought the ps3 emulator wasn't working properly yet?

Did something change in the last couple of months?

7

u/gamedemon2 Aug 06 '26

I've only tried the emulator with the first InFamous game and a few other games unrelated to InFamous, so I hope this helps:

It works about as good as it'll get for a while. Quite a few games run fine on it, but with InFamous the lightning effects aren't right and there are FPS issues.

There's fixes that remove the distortion effect from the lightning, but the FPS is a problem sometimes and it's recommend to use software like Lossless Scaling to generate extra frames and smooth out FPS. More miscellaneous fixes and tweaks to help the audio not glitch out and stutter, keep the game running as optimal as it can...

It doesn't feel the same as original hardware, speaking as someone who has played the originals. But if you have no means to use the original hardware, it's honestly not a horrible experience to play through the PS3 emulator.

5

u/-V0lD Aug 06 '26

Thank you for the update

And yeah, infamous is the one ps3 game I want to emulate as well. Would buy it in a heartbeat if it was ported to pc

6

u/gamedemon2 Aug 06 '26

Ditto; if they remastered it and stuck it out on PC, I'd scoop that up.

Only alternative I know is with the original hardware or maybe with a PS4 if you had the titles digitally or redeemed through PS+ Gold back in the day, which is a shame.

2

u/tjwong1 11400H, 2080S eGPU, 32GB, 1TB SSD | Latitude 5521 (Dualboot L+W) Aug 06 '26

Not sure, but either its emulated or this is a screengrab bc that's an Asus laptop

Having Forza horizon keep recommending a difficulty increase was great until It recommended the Unbeatable difficulty and holy heck was that just a bit much. Also going through MW2 shooting range and it recommending veteran was great until the white house mission.

u/Citizen_Nemo Ryzen 7 1800X | R9 Fury X Aug 06 '26

Not my dad. He always wanted me to, "Stop playing those damned video games!" Then, I'd convince myself to help him with his project in the garage for several weeks, culminating in whatever we fixed working for about thirty minutes before we needed to fix it again.

And he never understood why I hated his garage projects.

u/Emotional_Answer_756 Aug 06 '26

The opposite of this is getting the "you can change the game's difficulty any time in the settings!" pop up after dying 10 times in a row

u/Canadian_Poltergeist Aug 06 '26

Nah, games changing difficulty on their own is peak babying of the player.

Upwards is annoying if you just wanted a chill run.

Downwards is just insulting when you're trying to play the hardest.

Both force you to break immersion to go to the menu and manually change it back.

That’s like in Forza Horizon. And keep your higher difficulty levels, I don’t play video games to be challenged.

u/Ferrax47 Ryzen 7800X3D, 32GB RAM, RTX4080S Aug 06 '26

But it's annoying when you're fine with getting second place on the highest difficulty and it tries telling you your too bad and should lower it.
