The simple answer is:

]A. Menus and cutscenes are computationally simple, and thus render to screen quickly and efficiently.

B. In game 3D scenery is considerably more complex, and so is the computations required to perform clipping/bounds-checking of both your player character and non-player characters present in the area... and thus render to screen much slower than menus or cutscenes.

Conclusion: This is defined and expected behavior.

Note: The real answer on B is even more complex, since there are specific things that some games do via the PS2 hardware that make it incredibly difficult to emulate them accurately on the PC. FFXII happens to be one of those games (not sure about Kenshin).

your guys comps may not be powerful enough to run certain games at full speed, but if you dont post your specs, we wont know.

those other games nerox9 said he can run at 60 fps are probably games that aren't very performance demanding.

Your cpu isn't a good one to run a game with pcsx2.
