I am running the Pcsx2 on my acer laptop thanks to the new 0.9.6 release I'm actually able to play the game.. to an extent. though I have just about every graphics/Fps boost I can get it's managable at 16-40 fps. Also the game I"m playing is FM5 so it's not complete action sequence, but tactical, like Final Fantasy tactics. While there are some problems, it does seem to work in general
I'm happy, better than spending a whole crap load of cash to buy a mod chip on the possibility that it might let my "USA" ps2 play "JAP" formatted games. Although, most of the game is in japanese, I've applied a patch to it so at least it's playable. The sad part is that I miss a lot of great story content and jokes at the bases.
but yea, even on a 450$ acer laptop it's possible depending on the game, and with an avarage 20-30 FPS it's not that bad... just don't expect to play any graphics, fast action paced games.
Thnx again to the staff who made these emulator possible.
