What does it made apart from run games without a standalone program?

>This is a game changer for ps2 emulation.
Why's that? Is PS2 emulation finally gonna stop being shit somehow due to this?
Easton Smith
I thought Retroarch was just an easier way to access PS2 games and the "Cores" are just the different emulators. I guess it'll get a few more people interested in PS2 emulation but I don't see why it's a game changer
Jordan Baker
Unless it has been tweaked to increase performance and accuracy then who cares. Retro Arch is bloated and enough of a UI mess as it is.
Ryder Murphy
Zig Forumsros...should I take the retroarch Pill?
Colton Edwards
Is the sound still fucked when emulating Shadows of Rome?
Ian Diaz
to bad ps2 got no games
Grayson Evans
You can run Retroarch on Xbox.
Last time I wanted to play Nocturne on my PC I had to use SteamLink.
Very based.
Benjamin Turner
*on my TV I had to use PC&SteamLink.
Also yeah, we do get Nocturne Remaster.
Jason Morgan
no

Retroarch is coded and optimized much better than previous emulators aside from dolphin (ps1 core actually works and isn't shit like epsxe) as well as easy overlays and has the best scanline filter that works on a wide range of consoles. As long as the pcsx2 core is solid and runs well then it'll perform better than the standalone.

>Things NOT to expect for now:
>* Android support. Totally dependent on upstream efforts to make PCSX2 more portable. This will remain for 64bit x86_64 PCs for now.
>* No Mac support. GSdx has OpenGL 4.x requirements and Mac doesn’t meet them. Standalone should be the same in this regard.

Now I can maybe finally have the emulator and games on the same drive without the hitch occurring. Shit took me days off trial and error to fix.
Eli Ramirez
Can you update it through RetroArch now?
Josiah Watson
PCSX2 is still garbage
Anthony Cooper
Does it finally fix the input lag?
Jacob Reed
>Retroarch CRT shaders in PS2
hell yes
Ryan Price
Yes. Don't listen to detractors. They literally just hate it for not being exactly like their early 2000s emulation days. People here still use ZSNES, genuinely purely out of spite for Retroarch. Don't be a faggot and let Zig Forums's reflexive contrarianism deprive you of a unified emulation experience.
Liam Moore
Good aside from the red tint. PS is huge amount of dithering and a bit of blur helps with that. On a CRT with S cables these low resolution backgrounds look sharp as hell. On an LED/LCD they are blown up x4 with no ditehring blur and you just see pixels and big dots all over.
Nicholas Jackson
use retroarch for everything except PPSSPP and Dolphin
Brody Perez
> Good aside from the red tint.
original ps game had that.
Logan Peterson
Gonna wait for the steam release of Retroarch
Xavier Gutierrez
I'm calling it - we're going to have fully reverse-engineered and emulated a PS4 before a decent PS2 emulator appears
Kayden Davis
thank god i can now play persona 3 fes
Colton Hall
I would've laughed at you but RPCS3 is progressing way faster and is somehow a better emulator for MGS2 and 3 than PCSX2
Austin Hernandez
Does this mean it'll run on my computer well enough to not lag? I've only had bad experiences with PCSX2 when it comes to slowdown, I beat Klonoa 2 recently thankfully on it but it still had a decent amount of moments of slowdown.
Connor Thomas
how so? I use Retroarch for PS1 stuff but PCSX2 for PS2, why do I need to change anything?
Levi Smith
YES FUCK YES
Nathaniel Powell
>you can now run the same exact thing you were running before except through this other program for no reason whatsoever
Yay? I don't get it.
Blake Cox
>This is a game changer for ps2 emulation.
How..? It's a frontend.
Matthew Thompson
That's not true. MGS HD ports were bad MGS3 runs like shit on RPCS3 unless they fixed that.
Noah Nelson
>game changer for ps2 emulation.
no it's not because the core is still PCSX2
it would be the same thing if you use it alone it or with retroarch
Ryder Robinson
NIGGER

>This is a game changer for ps2 emulation.
It... isn't? It's just a frontend. RetroArch is only useful for stuff like Beetle PSX, Beetle Saturn, mGBA etc. You should use the standalone version of everything else because cores get updated less frequently than the emulators themselves.
