The team behind the best Playstation 3 emulator, RPCS3, has shared a new video showing some major graphical improvements that has implemented in the latest version of the emulator. As such, the team showed God of War 3, The Last of Us, Army of Two, Skate 2 and more games running on the emulator.
According to the team, kd-11 improved RPCS3’s Z-curve implementation which not only resulted in the improvements seen in the video, but also improved colors in many FIFA and Need For Speed games. On the other hand, Jarveson fixed exploding vertices in many games by correctly accounting for requested base index when calculating index offsets.
Furthermore, the longstanding issue with Ni no Kuni and Silent Hill: Downpour cutscenes was also fixed thanks to Gink’s first time contributions to RPCS3 this month. And if that wasn’t enough, many games have made it into the Playable category this month.
From the looks of it, God of War 3 and The Last of Us can boot right now, however performance is not that great yet (also the former still has some graphical artifacts). On the other hand, Heavenly Sword and Army of Two seem to run better than before, and the same can be said about other games such as Ni no Kuni, Skate 2, Knights Contract and Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse.
Enjoy the video 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.
