Thanks ! pcsx2 does Rock! i will try LCS liberty city later (i havent bought that game yet)

Just make sure you never report any crashes you might get.
You basically enabled all speedhacks, which makes your emulated ps2 more like an SNES in terms of power

but actually whats for speedhacks?
is it a over tunning of pcsx2 ? not stable hacks?
why not consider as proper parts of the core programming ?

It is not proper emulation. Hacks mean we are doing things wrong, to get speed boosts. That leads to games crashing or having problems (but depending on the hack, some have no side effects)

I get fullspeed on this game,too.
