You Can Play GOW (2005) On PC Right Now

[@TheSkyrocketYT]

If anyone is seeing this video nowadays, the RPCS3 version has an issue with Vulkan renderer on the Minataur boss fight which causes it to crash and not allow directional inputs on the minigame for the fight. If you run into this issue on Vulkan, the solution is to switch to OpenGL renderer which lags significantly more but will allow you to continue then switch back once the fight is over.

[@dvm1126]

can you play the other older god of war games except this

[@ThatGuy-ky2yf]

​​​​@@dvm1126 God of War 2 works perfectly with fullscreen 1080p on PCSX2 with some scan lines visble in the large open areas but they aren't too much of an eyesore. Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta are buttery smooth on PPSSPP but when upscaled can look blurry at times. I haven't played the PS3 remaster so they may function better on RPCS3. God of War 3 so far works but I haven't played it yet. It needs the 1.03 update and all the patches that aren't cuscene related. Set frame limit to 60(FPS) and lower it to 30 when the harpy platforming sections occur. Ascension is the most difficult to emulate. Frame limit should be "auto" and all updates from 1.04 to 1.12 are required to have all the patches available. Expect 25 to 50 FPS on this one. If it doesn't boot after loading modules, make a shortcut to desktop and set it to "Run as administrator" in the shortcut's properties. EDIT: The UK version of Ascension wouldn't run for me but I got the American version today and it boots up just fine without any Shortcut, so far it's similar to GOW3. That said, make sure your PC can handle it. Try it out initially on native 720p with the recommended specs (FPS on Auto, FIFO accuracy to Atomic, etc) to be sure there are no stability issues and then run it at a higher res that suits and maybe with the "FidelityFX"option instead of "Bilinear" if you run below your monitor's native res. EDIT 2: Started playing GOW 3. There are some very minor texture issues with Kratos and very small parts of backgrounds. I have write colour buffers on so maybe asynchronous textures or a related setting may help if it gets annoying.

[@TheSkyrocketYT]

It's only an issue in the first game. The PSP Remasters, God of War 2, and God of War 3 work fine with Vulkan. Just Vulkan Renderer stability with that one game that I know of. This is all on RPCS3 by the way@@dvm1126

[@faisalfirdausiinn4708]

Question: Which emulator (PCSX2 / RPCS3 / PPSSPP) can run JUST ENOUGH on this spec (or is there anything need to be changed)? Core i5 4590 (4 Cores @ 3.30Ghz) 16GB DDR3 NVidia Quadro K2200 - 4GB GDDR5 Windows 7 64 bit

[@ThatGuy-ky2yf]

@@faisalfirdausiinn4708 you should be able to run at least some PSP and PS2 games at least at native resolution and normal aspect ratio. 4 cores is simply not enough to run most PS3 games tho. Many need at least 6 cores. RPCS3 is heavily focused on the CPU.

[@lukkkasz323]

I highly recommend the RPCS3 version myself. 100% stability and performance. The CPU requirement compared to other PS3 titles is fairly low since it's a port of a PS2 game and RPCS3 does a great job at optimization considering the difficulty of PS3 emulation.

[@brokkenskull]

I have a 1070 ti and it still wasn't enough to run the game at stable 4K 60 fps on PCSX2. It ran smoothly on RPCS3 for me.

[@stevensv4864]

pcsx2 has nightly 64 bits version wich has better performance and can add high texture mod and with that looks awesome, even better than the ps3 ver on grapichs

[@ultimaxsage9606]

2:52, actually the halo issue can be fixed. Change your resolution to either 720p, 1440p or 2880p. and set the half pixel offset to special(texture), round sprite to half, align sprite enabled, and auto flush to enabled (sprites only). For some reason rendering the game in a resolution not divisible by those 3 causes this issue.

[@AKATacoTurtle]

[@AzizTheGazele552]

[@AKATacoTurtle]

[@TheSkyrocketYT]

For a near 60fps at 4k internal resolution, you need a 5900x or better. The 5900x stil drops occasionall but runs the game with no (speedboost) patches nearly at 60fps at all times. But enable more patches and you can run it on a weaker processor.

[@Assasainninja95]

@@TheSkyrocketYT I had a AMD Ryzen 7 5800X and I couldn't get past the beginning segment without massive FPS drops no matter my settings. It really sucked.

[@NightCoffeeX]

The FOV issue on RPCS3 seems is indeed fixed if you manage to update GOW Collection since it has a small patch available. So yes, RPCS3 is the best way to play the available GOW games on PS3, unless you have a weaker and older 4 core or less CPU which means PCSX2 is better for you.

[@fernandofh8283]

Yo, I already patch the updates but it seems not working. Any other solution for this? The FOV is really bad on my monitor, it look really stretched.

[@Ay-xq7mj]

These issues are negated with proper pcsx2 patches real question would be latency. I have had better latency emulating ps2 ports on rpcs3 in terms of latency. (Not God of war)
