I like watching tech videos. They're therapeutic. I have EmuDeck installed as well. So far, I'm only emulating PS games from PS1 to PS3. Turok runs pretty well on RPCS3. The only hangup is that the audio kinda crackles at times but the frames are a respectable 30 FPS.

I would add, to go check out rpcs3 compatibility for a game before you play it since not all games run smooth on the emulator. Not a hardware issue just optimization unfortunately. For example, Resistance: Fall of Man runs smoothly but Infamous 2 is a stuttery mess.

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Yes. But still go check out your favorite games. Games you want to play inspires people to tinker with the settings and maybe they can get it to work better. I'm tinkering with fight night champion now. I played round 2, 3 and 4. I didn't know I missed this one. In the compatibility it says in-game, but I've found settings making it a stable 30 fps on steam deck.

Where you get those roms?

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

You're supposed to rip you own games.

where do i get the games from?

Dump your own roms.

How do you download the games so they could be on your files

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

What do you mean?

[@Acedock360]

​@@GrownUpGamingGUGlike am I supposed to download something for me to able to add it or buy something

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Legally you need to have the PS3 game and dump the rom to play on the emulator.

[@happywaystv9453]

How do i decrypt iso files

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Mount it and then you can extract the files.

[@blackman991000]

You need to be in game mode to up data firewall on my steam deck

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Sorry what do you mean?

[@blackman991000]

I can't get to the file unless I'm in gaming mode to upload the firewall for some reason. Also, when you go into the p3 emu, the system is just like a p3 setup, but I can't find my game I downloaded in the ps3 rom

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Go to file, add game and select your ROM folder.

Hi is lbp fully playable on deck?

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

According to rpcs3 compatibility, game needs to be at least version 1.21 to prevent infinite loading screen. wiki.rpcs3.net/index.php?title=LittleBigPlanet

How to add new update ps3 games and dlc

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Right click the game and select install update/dlc.

Do you know how to fix the black screen? I did all of the stuff and was fine until i got a black screen

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

all games?

[@EssbeeKay]

@GrownUpGamingGUG Yes (so far), I currently only have one game at the moment. So it could be different, but I've seen people play this game on steam deck so its possible, but I'm trying to find a fix.. the game is Drakengard 3

[@EssbeeKay]

@@GrownUpGamingGUG any solutions would be appreciated

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

wiki.rpcs3.net/index.php?title=Drakengard_3 did you follow these settings?

[@EssbeeKay]

@GrownUpGamingGUG yeah i actually tried this, im not sure if im missing something 🤔

[@OmarGarcia-qp7bp]

yo how do i get the actual game itself

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

You need to dump your own roms else it's pirating.

[@stephencheung6655]

Hi please im kinda stuck here. When im downloading firmware I cant then find it anywhere at all so I cant install it. My downloads folder is empty but it says ive downloaded it on my browser.. anh help would be greatly appreciated thanks

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

Not sure what's happening on your side. But you can download it on pc or phone and transfer it to your steam deck I think. Just another way to do it.

[@stephencheung6655]

@GrownUpGamingGUG managed to do it through the phone thank you very much. 👍🏼

Ps3 and 360 is a bridge too far for steam deck. I have had maybe a handful of games work. I had Red Dead and UFC undisputed 3 working tho, which is all I wanted.

Red dead redemption is better on switch emulator now.

Ps3 was he end of my gaming era. I Don't really remember anything fun on the PS4 and have no interest with PS5 or Xbx series.

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

maybe it's time to come back with pc gaming or handheld gaming.

[@playnicegames]

@deg262 that’s an odd comment, every generation of gaming has gems for everyone. You just have to find them.

[@joeytamizi6373]

sounds like a nostalgia issue for you rather than a game quality issue

[@jjtheman523]

Steam deck will be best choice for retro and modern together. Xbox series X have backwards compatible to the ps3/360 era

[@pyocopyocoultra2047]

The only good ps4 game was Bloodborne.

[@faelrastephen6743]

This is too complicated to play games from 15 years ago.... Steam deck is an expensive piece of shit

[@GrownUpGamingGUG]

It easier than whipping out an actual PS3 and now we can play PS3 games portably. Steam Deck is the best value for money on the market in my opinion.
