Playing sonic unleashed the way god intended (emulated on a macbook)

#/j obviously #if you're wondering how it runs: it's so weirdly inconsistent #i do have a copy of the game for the ps3 but it runs so badly #it's constantly eating my button inputs which is bad when half the game is a beat em up combo masher #(well and also it's my dad's ps3 and i'm usually not in town to borrow it. so i was interested in trying to emulate it) #meanwhile on my computer #the highs are better than the ps3 but the lows are way worse lmao #i'd go as far as to say like 70% of the game runs smoother than it does on the actual console #but there are some parts it just doesn't know how to handle. too many guys on screen and the fps tanks #tbf to the rpcs3 guys they've done a crazy amount of improvement on this emulator! #there is this one part in rooftop run night that i used to get TWO fps in. it now hovers around 15-20fps #which obviously is still pushing the definition of 'playable.' but i am doing this for fun and blasphemy so its fine #sorry lmao getting games to run on apple silicon hardware that aren't supposed to is a special interest of mine #sega won't remaster this game themselves because they hate money i guess 🙄 #spooky talks.txt #2am musings of a madman
