Ps2 games frames per second

A way to counter real internal slowdown is to overclock the cpu of the emulated system. This of course requires a faster CPU to run the emulator of course. It may result in a smoother frame rate, or unintended effects such as speeding up the entire game. It is very game and system depdentent.

Frames Per Second in 2D Games. General and Gameplay Programming Programming. Started by massive-war November 21, PM. Ok, so everywhere you look games on good computers are getting anywhere from fps easily, even on server based games.

So I was wondering, what's the ideal frame refresh rate for a 2D game, and how do I optimize it? Cancel Save. A true American. One who supports his government.

Faster frame rates looks better, but there is no benefit to going faster than the monitor's refresh rate. Quote: Original post by massive-war Ok, so everywhere you look games on good computers are getting anywhere from fps easily, even on server based games. I think you are placing too much emphasis on framerate.

Most games decouple the rendering from everything else so that people with high-end video cards can have fast framerates and feel special, and low-end cards can still play the game reasonably well.

Why do people not understand that to get both great looking visuals AND 60 fps would require far stronger machines than the home consoles we have this gen? RyuuHou25 posted I will not disupute that, but GoW2 was towards the tail end of the PS2.

I'm pretty sure this applies to most GameCube and Xbox games as well. They weren't trying to push realistic graphics as much, and games that were pushing realistic graphics were more linear.

Plus I think the design philosophy in general was different, online video wasn't as big so being able to show off incredible looking trailers wasn't as big of a focus as it become in the 7th gen, etc. Oct 25, 9, Oct 25, Essen, Germany.

Yes - to the topic. PS2 and NDS are two consoles in last 20 years that "favored" 60fps by design. For PS2 it was: a Running 60 reduced EDram memory usage somewhat note that the highest resolution PS2 game x - Baldur's gate, ran 60fps b API-restrictions Sony made it 'difficult' to ship 30fps for first 10months or so NDS had memory usage related reason as well, but it's a bit more complicated to explain, so let's not divert the thread too much.

Oct 25, 13, Eh gen 6 was the most powerful consoles designed for i TVs, not too crazy to think they would be able to push frame rate when they didn't need to go crazy with res, textures, AA, etc.

Sonic 2 on the sega genesis uses it for the 2 player mode. This was also called high vertical resolution mode on the amiga. Last edited: Jan 24, Oct 25, 8, No shader tech made things simpler.

Still on p or lower resolution - people weren't resolution crazy back then and PCs were doing x pretty trivially back then. Ghostsonplanets said:. This isnt even remotely true. Its not a hassel at all, its driven by v inturrupts like literally any console that uses interlacing, and the benefits are exactly the same.
