    Mupen64 Man, the latest kick is this stupid video of a 360 video file. Its rapped in a emu like frame. My guess is a ruse, but even if it is an emu, so what, it plays videos... How cares..

    NO cause at first I thought there was no good PS2 Emulator or the DS roms were all corrupted and I was look for the next NO$GBA emulator for DS, but I tried and found them someone out there will have a PS3/Xbox 360 emulators its just that it may take time due to the fact that the newer the system the harder it becomes to work. YES cause I heard NO$GBA 2.7 was coming out and then I was informed that the NO$GBA 2.7 was a fonney.

    Ah, All right. Thanks for answering my questions. Yeah, you should totally ban them, it would just create a flood of new members with the same question.

    The point is that there are currently no 360/PS3 emulators that play games yet people persist in posting links to fake vids pretending to have working emulators. Some people seem to get off on that kind of thing.....no idea why since it just makes them look like mugs.
    When/If there is progress in the 360/PS3 arena then it will be a valid subject for discussion, for now though it just clutters the boards with people talking b*ll*cks and spreading misinformation which is why users spreading that misinformation need to stop or begone.

    From wiki : ps2 CPU 300 MHz

    From a source about the wii
    Acording tho the Nintendo Wii Wiki. The Wii comes with either of the two processors listed below.

    CPU: PowerPC-based "Broadway" processor, made with a 90 nm SOI CMOS process, reportedly? clocked at 729 MHz[56]
    -or-
    GPU: ATI "Hollywood" GPU made with a 90 nm CMOS process,[57] reportedly? clocked at 243 MHz[56]


    Both of these are some what emulatable on a 2 gig + system with dual core.


    ---now---

    ps3: CPU 3.2 GHz Cell Broadband Engine with 1 PPE & 7 SPEs

    360: cpu 3.2 GHz PowerPC Tri-Core Xenon


    .. pause... as you can see it takes 3 times the computer to emulate the wii or ps2. WHAT THE F*CK makes you think it will emulate a ps3 or 360. Get a friggen clue people! Ok maybe due to the fact xbox's are a computer in a box, but using high level emulation not a change.

    Its because most people don't understand what's involved in making an emulator. The fact a system has to be reverse engineered and then coded so a PC does exactly the same things using no proprietary code, emulating all the consoles hardware functions in software. Todays machines could technically run PS3 and 360 games, but not on an emulator and anyone writing code that simulates rather than emulates (which is the only way to achieve it) would be sued off the face of the earth by Sony/M$.

    I would never expect a newbie to go in to that type of detail. Its very common knowledge that you need a powerful computer to run an emulator. Sure some wont know that, but by in large its not high level science. If a computer game does not run well , changes are your under powered. Same goes for emulators. If a p2p is struggling on a 3 gig system, a ps3 is not going to be any better. Its simple math, nothing hi tech.

    Not that I disagree with you, or wanting an argument, just sustaining my post, and my point. Its nothing complex.

    Yep. I agree. It will be a fair while yet before there is tech that can handle it, if ever since the future is in multiple cores now the thermal barrier has been hit in terms of speed. it means the approach to emulation will have to be different to just waiting for processor speeds to catch up as it has in the past.

    it means the approach to emulation will have to be different
    You mean to go back to the way it was prior to ultraHLE, the dawn of high level emulation. True opt code handling and read, the way it should be done. Though, total respect for those that have gave us these emulators.

    Wouldn't it be easier to just post an announcement like this instead of hunting down every post that has misinformation in it?
