I was able to revive my old PlayStation 2 thanks to Hacks and Homebrew and I’m replaying several games from my childhood apart from playing several others that I couldn’t at the time, and I’m having a wonderful time.
Hell ya, got deep into the wii / wii u homebrew stuff for a while. I completely missed the PS2 and really that whole generation of gaming growing up. What are you playing?
Pcsx2 is the best it can be nowadays. I remember using it years ago and how difficult it was to configure it, but now it runs like silk even on outdated hardware like my PC, I don’t know what black magic the team behind it did.
After the original hardware, pcsx2 it’s the best option to play the Ps2 gems.

I’m interested in knowing the titles you’re playing, if you care to list them.
Oh the list of all the games is veeeeery looooong, like 70 games, but my current favorite that I couldn’t play in the day are:
While some that I’m replaying because they are really REALLY good are:
Soul Calibur 3!!! Yeah!!!

I discovered pcsx2 (ps2 emulator) a week ago and have been playing granturismo 4, so happy!

To me it seems like it’s THE best option to play ps2 games. Can run them at a bigger resolution and saving states can be used as a little cheat
You can do the same in the original console with Homebrew apps.
I don’t think GSM changes the render resolution of the game, but only the output resolution.
At least that was my experience when I tried it last over a decade ago.
