Best of all is that you can actually attain a gaming experience that is visually far more compelling than its original thanks to the tweaks you can make on graphics to display them to your own liking provided that your PC set up can handle it - that is. That said, there are a few games with the occasional hiccup, but all in all PCSX2 has proven a very successful PlayStation 2 rendition for PCs. With over 1500 games available - all of which run seamlessly - you'll find this catalog is ripe with compatible titles.

Set up game controllers, video and audio parameters, plus easily opt to save your games on an external SIM card. Otherwise, you can also opt into loading images directly from your hard drive which speeds things along slightly. After just a few quick steps you get to play any and all original PlayStation 2 games from your DVD drive. In order to set up, simply install the appropriate BIOS file for any regional PlayStation 2 - that said, they're NOT loaded within this program albeit a quick Google search should put all the files you need in your hands fairly easily. It puts any PlayStation 2 game on your PC with the added appeal of getting to set up your graphics configurations as you see fit - often far surpassing original visuals. PCSX2 is a full-throttle desktop emulator for Sony PlayStation 2.
