Overview

PCSX2 is a PlayStation 2 emulator for Windows and Linux, started by the same team that brought you PCSX (a Sony
PlayStation 1 emulator).

The PCSX2 project attempts to allow PS2 code to be executed on your computer, thus meaning you can put a PS2
DVD or CD into your computers drive, and boot it up!

The project has been running for 15 years now, and since its initial release has grown in compatibility. From
initially just being able to run a few public domain demos, its current state enables many games to boot and
actually go in game, such as the 'famous' Final Fantasy X, Devil May Cry 3 and God of War. You can always visit
the PCSX2 homepage to check the latest compatibility status of games with more than 2000 titles tested.
