The team behind RPCS3, the best Playstation 3 emulator that is currently under development, has released a video, showing the first NieR game running with 60fps. NieR was a 30fps game on Playstation 3 and RPCS3 is able to overcome this framerate limitation, proving once again why emulators are so important.
NieR is not the only 30fps locked PS3 game that can run with 60fps on RPCS3. Demon’s Souls, Persona 5, Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F and Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F 2nd are also games that can now run with 60fps on this Playstation 3 emulator.
As the RPCS3 team noted:
“Remember that NieR requires Write Color Buffers to be enabled, and the FPS to be capped in RPCS3’s settings, use the 30fps cap if you’re not using the patch and 60fps cap if you are. You will likely want to create a custom configuration for NieR as well, then open the custom configuration config.yml file (right-click the game and click “configure” then hit “save” now, right-click it again and press “open custom configuration folder”) now just open the config file with your gameID, search for “Sleep timers Accuracy” and change it from “Host” to “Usleep”, save the file and you’re ready to go! In the future this shouldn’t be necessary.”
Those interested can download the 60fps patch for NieR from here.
Enjoy!

Still don’t know how this hasn’t gotten a remaster/ switch port
Didn’t sell well, even on Japan
It’s one of those games that could sell in a future investment, for being cult status, kinda like Psychonauts 2.
Right ! Nier Automata sold very well, but i’m not really sure about a remaster of the 2010 game
Only way to know is rereleasing the 2010 game in active platforms, preferably with some enhancements on graphics and mechanics.
Cavia the first dev isn’t active anymore, but there’s this leaked picture, it’s from 2017, and there’s no update about it, Yoko Taro simply said “It’s fake… Maybe ??” seems like teasing… or NOT https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9887eb30225003c83fd04bf33acba396150af812e28c298ca896cf39d01acc44.jpg
Only on pc.
Been playing After Burner Climax and OutRun Online Arcade. Those blue, blue, skies. Games harking back to a distant past when SEGA rocked.
Tried Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 (What a good AI for a 2D Action Platformer), Hard Cops Uprising (sad it has artifacts at 1080p), Top Spin 4 (crashes sometimes) and Earthworm Jim HD (some minor sound bugs)
RPCS3 is really impressive, can’t wait to see flagship exclusives like TLOU and GoW3 running well
Awesome and thanks for the heads-up. Maybe add that helpful information as feedback on the site’s game compatibility section.
Guessing you found a crack for that first game because, if memory serves, it featured always-online DRM on PSN.
Fingers crossed they soon fix the graphical glitching with Daytona USA and the missing graphics for one of the weapons with Super Stardust HD. They recently fixed the glitching in the Gran Turismo games which is fantastic.
The way things are progressing with RPCS3 I’ll finally soon be able to pack away my old PS3 slim for good. Great stuff!
Keep it just in case, i sold mine in 2016, and sometimes i regret lol, hope i can finally be able to forget it when RPCS3 is 100% ready.
And yes i went to the forum to give feedback but i saw that it was already reported for all the four games except the crashing on Top Spin 4, i set the internal resolution on 4K to get rid of aliasing, they told me maybe it’s the cause, i’ll try 1080p later…
Yep, I’ll keep it set up for the time being but its days are thankfully numbered, haha. I pretty much only keep it set up to occasionally play the aforementioned SEGA games, Child of Eden and Red Dead Redemption.
With all such games now running on RPCS3 (and Xenia) things are looking good albeit both emulators obviously have some way to go before running RDR in a more optimised state.
I still own the likes of TLoU and the Uncharted games so it’ll be cool to one day see them running well on PC with higher internal resolution graphics but, to be honest, I don’t have much enthusiasm to be playing them again. Two or three play-throughs back in the day was enough for me.
It seems like the Xenia team stopped updating their emu, maybe it’s because Halo MCC is coming to PC so the most interesting X360 games are no longer exclusives, i wish they could continue, Xenia has better performance on RDR, and there is still some exclusives (Gears 2, 3, Forza Horizon, Ninja Gaiden II…)
For TLOU and Uncharted, it’s just to see them running good on PC, and another playthrought with keyboard and mouse or a 360 controller just FTW sounds cool too 😀
Are you sure about that because I downloaded a new build (D3D12 branch) from the Xenia site only yesterday and it currently states “Latest commit to the master branch on Fri 02 August 2019” which is today?
HAHA that’s good news, last time i checked about a month ago, the build was from February, there was a thread on r/Xenia talking about the dev team lacking motivation for continuing work on the emu due to the Halo series no longer exclusive
Cool! Don’t be panicking me like that again, lol!
Yeah, things went pretty quiet not so long ago but there’s thankfully been a flurry of renewed activity of late.
(The more advanced D3D12 branch at least. Not paid attention to the less developed Vulkan branch. Nothing for Linux yet.)
Drakengard 3 or Pass .
Good job,i hope one day i can play the last of us with better framerate…
Impressionante, já acharam o ps3 com CPU tão alienÃgena que seria impossÃvel emular é realmente impressionante.
