The team behind the best Playstation 3 emulator, RPCS3, has recently a released a new version of it. As such, you can find below Uncharted 3 and The Last of Us running on the PC via this latest build of RPCS3.
Now as you will immediately discover, there are still major graphical glitches/bugs in both games. Not only that, but performance is not that great. ZEROx used an Intel i9 9900k with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX1070 in order to run The Last Of Us. However, and despite using the most powerful gaming CPU available, The Last Of Us was averaging between 14-19fps.
On the other hand, John GodGames Emus used an Intel Core i7 8700K overclocked at 5.0Ghz with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX1080 G1 Gaming GPU. Still, and similarly to The Last of Us, Uncharted 3 ran with around 15fps on the latest version of RPCS3.
It’s pretty obvious that these two triple-A Playstation 3 exclusive titles will not be playable on the PC any time soon. Or at least for the majority of users using mid-tier CPUs/GPUs. However, it’s really cool witnessing how RPCS3 progresses over the years/months.
As a bonus, I’ve also added a video showing Resistance: Fall of Man running on an Intel i9 9900K with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080Ti in 4K.
Enjoy the videos and stay tuned for more!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

Nice. Both RPCS3 and Xenia received an update today.
I hope Xenia can run DOAX2 now…
I just tried a couple of games with the latest RPCS3 and are impressed with the update. Daytona USA now has much reduced green flickering and the characters in Soul Calibur V no longer have the white ghostly texture issue.
Thank god for emulation. It allows me to ignore most of the trash released in the modern era, and by that, I mean about 95% of games these days.
Its okay someday you’ll get a job buddy and mommy and daddy wont stop you from buying games
Until they get tired of little jimmy buying games with his part time job money, meanwhile they are still paying for food, clothing, shelter and all the other bills…
… lagging on the PC via the latest version of RPCS3
FIFY. Johny Boy, you have alarming amount of typos as of late.
So what you saying is that in the upcoming yeas that everything is some always online mmo, we will be able to play ps3 exclusives on our uber powerfull pcs.
Same old emulation rubbish as usual.
