CPS-3 emulation?

**hockey2112** · October 8th, 2006, 16:57

I cannot seem to find any info on Google about CPS-3 emulation that isn't a year old. Does anyone here know if there was ever any headway made in emulating this arcade system on the PC?

As far as I know, there hasn't been (and I try to keep up with mamedev blogs and other emulation sources).

Thanks for the reply. I figured that someone around here would have caught wind of it if it existed.

Ive been looking over at the games they have for cps3 and I really hope cps3 is possible on psp or atleast a decent one on pc

cps3 is a dream atm.

cps2 was hard enough, now u gotta find a team willing to spend a lifetime to decrypt cps3 :x

and not kill the board at the same time ><

Did some research and it turns out the roms are all corrupted because during the dumping process of the game, the security chip overloads the memory which causes the board itself to fry, so basically your left with a dumped rom file of nothing.

So like kando says its just a dream for now untill they find away around that whole selfdestruct thing going on.

aye the boards go hari kari.....although after years of trying, the guys at cps2shock were able to resurrect a cps2 board that went suicide...im sure its possible w/ cps3, but because of the complexity, and the small list of games....dreams are more possible =)
