A new playstation emu?

[Cap'n 1time]

@ Lanolin - thats the bios. assuming it is real, he just has it boot the bios before the game starts, alot of psx emus do indeed do that.

@Tranman409 I noticed this too. dosnt mean its fake.. it could just be a delay due to emulation.

I personally think its a fake.. but thats just me destroying the dreams of FF7 fanboys XD.

It's fake. His hand motions are too fake. Who actually LIFTS their thumb to hit X to go to next dialog. Also...during the PAUSE Between dialogs...why would the memory stick be ACTIVE? Theres nothing loading...unless its A MOVIE FILE THE PSP is playing. Other than that...theres also some lag time between the users inputs and whats actually happening on the screen. It's a movie file...I'll tell you that much. Considering SNES Emulation isn't even perfect...why would PSX Emulation be any better? Unless some magical genius finds a way to actually use other power from the PSP other than its processor...which currently does not exist.

the GPU has been taken advantage of.. but still, your right about the fact that the memory stick was active while nothing was accuring.. I noticed that too...

I think it's running far too fast to be emulated, and where is the release, ever hear of an emulator being so good so quickly without a alpha/beta release.

But the memory card access doesn't prove it's fake because the game would be running from there and it would be emulating a CD loading, wich it would access from the memory card.

But it's obviosly fake IMHO.

Well the hand motion thing could just be the emulator lagging. As for the memory stick being used, im not sure. The creators say on their site that they have betas available so, maybe if one of us could get our hands on that... in any case I'm supporting them because if it is real the emulation looks really good, and id be the happiest person in the world if I can play my SOTN on my psp!

I don't like to judge things like this, but if I had to bet, I'd say It's fake. The person could have just ran a vid in fullscreen and had the hold button pushed down so when he pushed buttons the fake wouldn't be exposed. why not tape the psp game boot up part?

it is very possible, we would just get crap frame rates... a ps one emu... but this one seams VERY fake..... i think the one being released (demo is out, isnt it) here is real, we'll just have to wait for the release... but 30 frames

I'm having trouble beside deciding its fake or not. The only real thing holdin me back from saying its a total fake is my want for such an emulator. The main problem I see with it is the flashing card reader. This is the exact flash I see when watching a movie on my PSP form the MS. The odd position of the "emulator" doesn't mean crap since a movie could easily be formatted so that it is just to the right corner with a slight push down. With proper lighting it could be shown that the black in the corner is actually part of the movie and not just ideal pixels. Someone brought up how odd it is the way he pushes the buttons and to me that just seems like bad acting saying "Look me really playing".


However It be real nice and I mean real nice if I was wrong.

hmm, i never see the hold button on in the video i just realised, it COULD be REAL ...

I think I'm leaning towards fake on this one. I mean if you look at the you'll notice 3 things. For one, I never used a PSX emulator that showed the SCEA and PlayStation logo. Thats a give away it was probably recorded off a TV. And I know some of you are fooled by him selecting the game from a menu, but that is also easily faked if you have some programming, java or flash knowledge. Take the raw TV record of FFVII, open a video editing tool and throw it together. Plus the video has 2 bars on the side, I have a TV turner and I've recorded video game footage off PS2 and PSX for music videos, and the TV Tuner has those 2 bars on the side.

Second give away the memory stick access light is flashing constantly. Thats a good sign its a video off of the PSP because usually emulators read from RAM and not a memory stick.

Third, its posted on a geocities site. I don't consider anything on geocities creditable.

Although I might be wrong, I am leaning towards fake. Only way is to release the emulator instead of a video. Like any legit developer.
