Thank you. Video is over a year old now, but I've built a nice emulation mini build for my family and friends to enjoy. Hats off to you sir!

[vectoredfly]

Another great tutorial, your ability to present the information in an informative and easily understood manner is impressive and appreciated!

Excellent tutorial. Love the way you make them. You explain everything step by step. And you speak clearly and go slow . Excellent. I just got my first ps3 game up and running. Thanks

[anthonynorton]

Good tutorial. I usually have them handy on a laptop so I can scan through them while on the desktop. It saves time by allowing you to double check instructions instantly.

Very slick, I think the PS3 was the greatest console of all time, I am biased, I still have a launch edition and it runs flawlessly, when my buddy went through 3-4 Xboxes my OG PS3 still works!

[jagsingh]

Perfect timing I am setting up batocera for the first time on my aya neo and ps3 games was a priority 👌🏽

[marcohegen]

Thanks for this good documentation. 🙌 Very helpul.

[enigmarocker]

Many thanks for making this fantastic video!!

[coreyharnack]

Great work, tutorial is amazing! I got emulator working perfect

[cody]

Thank you for all your help. I am building The ultimate Gaming/Pc rig
I have a gaming pc with a i7 core Asus Motherboard 64gig of ram and 10, 000 gig hard drive.
I have windows 7 on it and set it up for dual boot so if you turn it on and do nothing it boots into Batocera. I have pain stakenly tracked down the entire library of roms for almost every emulator on batocera so far and am installing them all scraping them all and making sure every game runs perfect and there are no copys and they all work amazing. and the ps3 has been the biggest grind. the games are so big it takes so long. as well apple and dos has been a pain in the ass because the files are not names for the games they are. so i have been having issues with those emulators and roms. But this has been such a major help. thank you so much

[antoniomazzola]

Grazie mille tutorial spiegato alla perfezione grande💪💪💪

[mikeerandio]

thanks bro! it works for me year 2024 :)

[brandonphilander]

Thank you so much, really appreciate this.

I don't know how you know all this stuff, but it's very useful! Bizarre how this would be classed as abandonware when it looks so recent. It's a feast for the eyes! I noticed the E.T. game shares my year of birth: 1977. I've had a lot of work done, if that explains why I look the way I do. I'll check out as many videos as possible for tutorials and will follow it to the letter. So much to learn!

[cody]

Dude. thank you. Man i downloaded 1.5 thousand gigs of PS3 games. and none of them were showing up in Batocera. And as soon as i took out all spaces and put .ps3 at the end and then i updated my games list. BAM! there all there. thank you so much. you saved me from a heart attack lol.

[hdjoe]

Very helpful! I worked through and got my batocera gaming pc running PS3 finally so thank you!
One issue I just bumped into… gta iv.. it loads the ppu modules but gets stuck at 148 of 149. Doesn’t move from there. The other games all ram through and booted up well

[Oracle_insight]

Mine has pkg files inisde the game folder, is that what yours have? How do you unpack pkg files?

[SwitchMaxFX]

Thank you! I was having an issue with emulation station and it wasn't running my ps3 games. i didn't know I had to add .ps3 to the end of the folders.

[nwildner]

Noticed on the rpcs3 logs that you are using a GTX1650 for this demonstration. This is good because, it is exactly the same GPU I've got on a PC that I found on the electronics discard litter near home so, It should handle PS3 just fine :)

[uncollared]

I just downloaded need for speed carbon. i checked the compatability list and it is compatible. But the game keeps freazing at the startup screen. any ideas how i can fix that?
