The team behind the best PlayStation 3 emulator, RPCS3, has released a new video. In this video, we get to see games like Gran Turismo 5, Metal Gear Solid 4, Demon’s Souls, Uncharted 3, Killzone 3 and more running on PC via the latest version of the PS4 emulator.
Going into more details, Gran Turismo 5 now appears to be playable on PC. On a high-end PC system, you can get 60fps during races. Killzone 3 also appears to be running great, especially now that the team has fixed an issue that could cause major performance issues on NVIDIA’s GPUs.
Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception looks better than ever now on RPCS3. However, performance and stability still need to be improved. Metal Gear Solid 4 also runs and looks better than ever on RPCS3. However, it will be a real challenge to get close to 60fps. So, similarly to U3, RPCS3 still needs more optimizations for MGS4.
The latest version of RPCS3 also fixes major graphical issues in games like Demon’s Souls, God of War 3 and Fuse. Speaking of Fuse, the game is fully playable now on RPCS3, and there is also a 60fps patch for it.
It’s also worth noting that the RPCS3 team has added a new feature to the emulator. Right now, PC gamers can enable an in-game overlay. Via this overlay, you can enable Anisotropic Filtering, set the game’s framerate, and even enable a Performance Overlay. This is a cool new feature, so kudos to the team.
Those interested can go ahead and download the latest version of RPCS3 from its official website.
Finally, in order to avoid what happened with Yuzu, RPCS3 has now a disclaimer pop-up on its website. The RPCS3 states that it does not condone piracy in any way. Plus, it won’t allow people to ask or share illegal downloads in its communities.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

Sony doesn’t make games, they make badly written interactive movies.
And Kojima is a talentless hack.
RDR1? Did they skillfully avoid that? I watched a mgs4 run on yt looked like that’s what it is mostly, a movie game. Uncharted is a movie game unless these earlier ones are different from the pc ports, weird traneeman body in the pic there oof grossaf. We have so many racing games on pc seems hardly worth a different platform. Don’t get me wrong I love emu and the options but it’s a brute force thing most of the time and usually there are more and better native pc games outside of exclusives and hw locked stuff like nintendont.
yes you use emulators to play exclusives to console.
RDR1 still has pretty awful performance on RPCS3, it runs much better on xenia, might be why they avoided showing it off. Haven’t played the newer UC games but I don’t recall the original trilogy having more cutscenes than most games, gameplay is still garbage though.
yeah I went through both this and xenia years ago for that game and both were terrible stutter fests even tried it right before booting up the ryujinx edition and it wasn’t much better tbh 20-30fps w stutters. The ryujinx AIO w the dlc verson was lower graphics but was 35-45 turbo boost off 56c cpu or 60+ w turbo boost on 95c cpu most of the time. UC the pc port 3 games was a ton of cutscenes and a little janky gameplay, that was out of here pretty quickly. I never played any of the other being pc player so long.
RDR1 runs good now on Xenia. 100/90fps. my only complain is i cant increase resolution.

yeah, IF you have overwhelming brute force system and not a laptop w an i5/2060 so you can’t blanket it and call it all good. Don’t fall into johnnys , “oh it runs great on my free 4090/i99/100gb vram/250gb sys ram system so it’s well optimized” gahbage lmao
this is my screen on my PC. yes, its a powerfull PC, but its not a 2000$ machine.
yeah I always take into account how it runs on my current main system, including usage and such, I’m sure it’s fine on a desktop w the same or newer specs just desktop versions, it just wasn’t much better for me than the AIO ryujinx version. What needs to happen is a proper remake with just RDR2 level of graphics and qol but likely never happen or we’ll get a mobile phone port like the DE versions of GTA. They had most of the assets done in RDR2 just never followed through, sad.
The entire generation of consoles that the ps3 belongs to sucked. It was a horrible time to be alive. This emulator exists for demons souls and maybe a couple of niche jrpgs I’ve never heard of
Literally some of the best games ever made are on PS3.

And that list is missing Mafia 2, Sacred 2, Just Cause 2, etc.
hm ok that’s your list not something that most would call good games overall. Anda yeah a lot of the best ones on there have native pc releases, soo why play them on emulation again? smh lol
.
Most wouldn’t call good?
Deus Ex Human Revolution?
F.E.A.R.?
The Splinter Cell games?
Top Spin 4?
Black Flag?
And I explained in another comment that the only reason I would play those on an emulator would be for the quicksaving feature, and some “QoL” features which make the experience more comfortable.
I own ALL of these games on PC as well, and obviously, they’re all superior.
yeah but like I said most are on pc so no point, for your niche needs most wouldn’t bother w emu, those are like 5 games out of a screenshot w what 50 games? and only one I can see that I’m not sure is on pc is top spin, don’t follow that series.
Edit: yeah this is a side issue about ps3 games quality, I don’t dispute it had quality releases it did but I’ve been a pc gamer since around 2005 so never followed it much
Are you done?
I don’t think any of those games are anywhere close to being called “some of the best games ever made”. PS3 gen was the genetarion of hand holding, aside from From games, everything else was extremely easy, full of UI indicators to guide the player. I remember being bored to death by the main AAA titles from that generation… gosh, even Lara Croft had a “spider sense” like thing that would highlight exactly what you needed to do in order to progress… PS3 tried to appeal to the masses by casualizing gameplay, games held your hand and never let go. I literally lost most of my interest in gaming that generation
RPCS3 is really on a roll lately. Hopefully they keep up the momentum. I have been having fun with it.
Not a single game worth playing unless you’re a low IQ n*gger.
Sony doesn’t make games, they make badly written interactive movies.
Kojima is a talentless hack.
And weebs suck.
I have this emulator and around 50 games.
I confirm that it’s becoming really great.
Back when the PS3 was released, I already had zero interests in consoles anymore, cos most of their interesting games were also ported on PC, so I didn’t see a point. (in fact, 95% of my PS3 games are also on PC)
But now, here’s why I’m excited about PS3 emulation: quicksaves.
That’ll completely change the experience in many games. I know that many “hardcore gamers” prefer when there’s no quicksaves, but what these people don’t understand is that all gamers are different and enjoy their games differently.
I couldn’t care less about checkpoint systems. I grew up with quicksaving in the 90s. I don’t care if it makes games “easy”, that’s even the point in my case.
I’m not looking for a challenge, but more like a more comfortable experience.
According to what I read, not every game supports quicksaving (yet), but among the games I own, I think that it’ll be very interesting to see it working in Mirror’s Edge, Alien Isolation, Dishonored, the Uncharted games, or maybe even AC Black Flag.
I don’t care if graphics are vastly inferior. The goal isn’t to replace their superior PC counterparts, but to have a different experience.
Same when you quicksave in GTA Vice City with PCSX2 emulator!
The ability to quick save and load is merely a convenience to most people so it’s not really gonna make a huge difference for those who prioritise things like optimisation, graphical fidelity and gameplay.
Most PC gamers don’t see the appeal in playing a FPS, TPS or anything that requires precision aiming with a gamepad. I know some emulators support mouse injectors but for the most part the games generally can’t be played without a controller. So for games like Dishonored it’s rather pointless to play it on an emulator.
Good post, and nice to see real females with an interest in technology.
Bruh simping hard
Nah man, I’m good! ;-D
Just refreshing to see an actual female person in a sea of men pretending to be women, especially in the tech-field, that’s all…
You don’t even know if it’s a real girl.
