[DISCUSS] psx4droid and XPERIA Play

---

so i have a paid version of psx4droid v2 on the x10 and it lags on most psx games. i want to know if the lag is mainly related to the CPU or the GPU?

it looks like the Xperia Play is going to be exclusively offered in Canada first and i will try to get my hands on one on launch day but would like to know how much psx emulation will be improved with the Xperia Play compared to the X10.

i'm a die hard SE fan but with the atrix and galaxy s II offering dual-core 1GHz and larger batteries, it will be difficult to stay loyal. i want my next phone to be able to play psx without lag since that is the most resource-intensive thing i do on the phone and was wondering if the Play will be up to the task with its newer CPU (Qualcomm 8255 vs 8250) and its newer GPU (Adreno 205 vs 200).

i need your input please.

good question I think cause it's android and cause it's gaming oriented maybe it won't lag but there's just a chance that xperia play has it's own games this means games created to use it's processor, ram, etc

not sure if psxdroid won't lag

Try FPse... It's a much better playstation emulator, it doesn't lag at all for me!

Also, try messing with the settings, some games require you to change the framerate and such, i found out some games ran alot smoother. Otherwise, like fiscidtox said, FPse.

Isn't FPse for android 2.2 + ?

I'm on freex10 beta 4 and it works flawlessly.. FPse is the best emulator on android imo

No problem

Yeah it is definitely much better.. Psx4droid was very laggy and glitchy, I never have any issues with FPse. It is worth every penny.

that explains why i couldn't find it on the market..
guess i'll have to switch to 2.2+ as i'm still using the stock 2.1. but that makes me feel confident that i won't need a dual-core CPU to run PSX games, i just need a better emulator (FPseCe).

before I do the rom upgrade, can anyone tell me if the emulator features custom hardware button mapping? i have a datel bluetooth wireless gamepad that works off the WiimoteControl software as i can't stand playing using the on-screen controls. will i be able to use it with FPseCe?
