It baffles me how symphony of the night still has no native pc port on steam, they leaving so much money on the table. Its literally THE "vania" of a whole sub genre of games
Dude fr. I am hoping Konami to release a pc port and includes the Saturn levels and being able to play as Maria and Richter and anything else I don't know about packaged with all of the game versions of Richter in them including the original PC Engine version with anime cutscene and all completely uncensored as they've done with their other Castlevania releases. Is there any way to make this happen? They've released almost all of it except I think the Nintendo 64 version and maybe that non-canon with the female as the MC on the gameboy or something. I mean they even gave us kid dracular out of nowhere.
Yeah on PS4 there is the Castlevania Requiem bundle which has native ports of Rondo of Blood and Symphony of the Night and for no good reason Konami made it a PS exclusive. That should have been ported to everything so that people finally have a way to play those classics on modern hardware without needing to own a PS4 or PS5.
I’m really enjoying your uploads Alex. I bought a mini PC just for emulation, but Im still going to need a egpu for upscaling I think. Never really done that before. Always wanted to after seeing it.
Alex parabéns pelo vídeo! Sou um veterano em emulação, usando emuladores desde as suas primeiras builds, e acompanhando com entusiasmo a evolução dos mesmos!.. descobri seu canal a pouco tempo e estou gostando da forma como vc apresenta as News! PS: gostaria de sugerir no futuro, que vc mostre a função de compactação que existe nativamente no Xenia Canary, eu uso ela a algum tempo e ajuda muito na questão de espaço de armazenamento ( mesmo que em alguns jogos sejam apenas alguns megas diminuímos) acredito que sempre ajuda! Um abraço!
Valew pela dica amigo, você é a segunda pessoa que está comentando sobre isso e eu nem sequer utilizei essa função ainda, vou testar e assim que fizer um vídeo novo sobre armazenamento eu falo sobre isso.
Thanks for the review! The 360 emulator is a very important piece of software as the 360 is both easier to emulate (allowing for better framerates in weaker systems) and its games also look slightly better than the PS3 versions. Please include as many Halo games as you can in your next Xenia update video!
5:53 There's a sound issue in Fable 2 - some dialogues aren't voiced. Enabling the XMA Audio Decoder (Experimental) in Xenia Manager partially fixes the problem, but it causes some words to cut off.
In GOW3, do you still randomly explode shortly after you die and respawn? I meticulously have to back up my save to have a point to fall back on due to this, and to avoid restarting the whole chapter.
Xenia manager makes it a much better experience. How is performance vs rpcs3 nowadays? I had a ps3 back in the day but xbox360 games seem to look better (less washed out) so would prefer xenia
the xenia manager gives you the option to download canary and it will automatically place it within manager folder so no need to download both separately
Been a while since I checked up on Xenia, I was happy to see Ninja Gaiden 2 is almost playable now. I still encountered some graphical glitches but the performance was decent at 2x resolution. If you want to play the original bloody version of the game it's locked on the xbox 360 since they made the horrible mistake of using the Sony Sigma versions of the games for the Remastered Collection.
Bom video, Eu não consigo terminar a DLC Rally do forza horizon na corrida kettle hills no segundo ou terceiro checkpoint o jogo trava e quando passo mais na frente a textura do chão some e o jogo trava.
@@AlexwpiGame Então talvez mas fiz uns testes eu peguei novamente o jogo agora em outro formato xex e também as dlc, Primeiro usei uma build antiga aleatoria do xenia e pra minha surpresa passei na primeira corrida desse mapa (kettle hills) e só travou na ultima desse mesmo mapa porém ao utilizar a versão mais recente aconteceu o mesmo travamento na primeira corrida no mesmo lugar logo não tenho ideia se o problema é no xenia, jogo ou os dois.
What bugs me about Xenia is that it doesn't seem to save shader cache like other emus. You can play a game many times over and will encounter those shader stutters at the exact same locations every time.
the emulator isn't abandoned its just there is only like 1 full time developer working on it and its on his spare time. there used to be more, but they all left the project due to personal reasons.
Dang, hoping Dead or Alive series could get performance fixes soon. Is the best version of Castlevania Symphony of the Night on the Xbox 360? I genuinely want to know what version is the best and if they also include the Saturn extra's levels and the ability to play Maria and Richter.
The Xbox 360, PS3, PS4, and PSP versions of SotN have the same content as the Saturn version but do not suffer from transparency issues or loading delays when entering menus and the map. Let's say they are optimized versions ported from the Saturn version.
@@AlexwpiGame Thanks for replying. Going by this video I literally just saw a minute ago which is this one here watch?v=qSvWMA7rFMU and saw your message seems it's the PSP or the PS4 versions are the ones to get as they according to the video the PSP is when Konami developers tried putting in the Saturn extra content in but they changed Maria to be more consistent with Rondo Maria. The PS4 version is a port of the PSP version and Konami half azzed that version as they didn't bother to upscale it properly to HD. I can get the PSP but the PS4 is next to impossible in emulation right now and I don't want to buy it for PS4. I'm going to hope for a PC port while I get it for the PSP for now or Xbox 360 if it's the same as the PSP version I dunno. I don't think I saw or tuned out if there was a Xbox 360 version. I know they talked about the Xbox version but I dunno if it was the original or 360 because that version is terrible with heavily compressed music tracks for the game and the file size is less than that of the PlayStation 1...
I'm finally able to play Fable 2 without it being a stuttering pile of shi at a smooth 60fps, which is amazing! However, I keep running into an issue where my characters adult texture(after you finish the prologue) doesnt load and its just black. At this point I'm starting to think its the rom itself, can anyone help me out?
Hello, do you have any fixes to Dead to Rights Retribution? The game will freeze after 10 minutes, sometimes 5-45min of gameplay. I understand the emulator rarely receives any major updates these days, but some games aren't looking playable anytime soon.... Thanks.
Great video and info, but I'd rather not rely on a cloud based emulator. Reminds me of the Wii-U one and while it worked there was so much bloat by leaving excess files on your system. For those don't mind this then this would probably be the way to go for ALL emulators. /pass
last time I tried horizon a few months ago wing mirrors were missing. has there been any recent updates that helped this game or was it just likely my PC specs to blame?
The updates improved the gameplay of FH1 and FH2. However, I don't recall the issue with the mirrors. As I mentioned, I finished FH1 with only about two crashes throughout the entire gameplay, without any major issues.
6:32 I doubt the motion blur will be fixed anytime soon though, still that rectangle underneath the car. 7:48 There's still a ridiculous amount of bloom in that gameplay clip. Best way to play 360 games is still on an actual 360 imo.
I agree MCC is the definitive way to play. The legacy games have a few things MCC doesn’t like original menus and some content that hasn’t been moved over. Development of MCC has ceased, and eventually may not be supported anymore. When that happens, emulation may be the only avenue of preservation.
@wethefearless497 "like original menus" That's the only thing the originals have, for everything else, MCC is lightyears superior and has everything and more. "eventually may not be supported anymore. When that happens, emulation may be the only avenue of preservation" MCC is on PC as a native game. What emulation? Also, the entire collection is over 125GB in size, i doubt it would just gone from the XBOX store or Steam even without support, they were developing it and polishing it almost for 10 years. It's literally the biggest game (or collection of games) i own on my PC, i don't think Baldur's Gate 3 or Cyberpunk 2077 are that massive (or they are pretty close)... The only relevant XBOX360 halo is Halo 3, but again it's surpassed by the MCC version. If you play Reach, is worse than the XBOX One version.
@saricubra2867 I agree 100% MCC is the best way to play the games today. With better frame rates, resolution, and mods it’s no competition. I’m only saying preservation for several decades from now. There are PC games from 20 years ago that have discontinued support that were built for old versions of Windows that cannot be run anymore. Hopefully community patches exist, but that is not a guarantee. MCC also requires you to authenticate your Microsoft account before you can play when you first launch the game. If those authentication servers ever change or go away and MCC isn’t updated to reflect that, it will be unplayable if you want to install it on your new PC then. There are many games like this now lost to time. And while it may not be necessary to emulate Halo today. It very well could become the most accessible way 10 or 20 years from now when support stops and Xboxes become too expensive to own. As for today, you’re absolutely right. MCC is the best way to play Halo.
I doubt this would run at all for me- I think I may have tried it and it ran meh- I normally use a i7-2600 can’t be overclocked because it’s not the K version.
I think the i3 12100f is the minimum for modern emulators. It is the best 4c/8t affordable CPU. I use ROG Ally for my emulation need and my Switch OLED for portability.
@ jeez- yeah, I attempted to play halo 3 with it and odst and it did not like it. Also the stutters were just out of hand. Frame rate was surprisingly playable though. But the audio was the issue. I can handle 12 frames halo 3 But once it stutters then that’s where it’s unplayable.
What do you mean "use the XEX format because it saves space"? There is no such thing as a rom in XEX format. You can extract the ISO but you are saving absolutely no space on the disk.
Eu primeiro instalei o xenia canary normal e depois o xenia manager quando voce informou aqui. Só necessito fazer as configurações no xenia manager e instalar o mousehook?
@@AlexwpiGame O manager já tenho faz meses. Então é só configurar os jogos mesmo, não deve ter muita diferença. Mas essa configuração automática não tinha visto ainda, muito foda
Tive um problema no meu xenia. Não salvava as configurações dos jogos nem a configuração automática online. Desinstalei tudo e instalei de novo, baixei um programa também que transforma iso pra XEX e porra, da uma boa economizada no espaço (mesmo eu tendo só 2 jogos) @@AlexwpiGame
@@AlexwpiGame eu nem sabia que tinha recomendações de configurações no rpcs3 igual tem no dolphin(que eu também descobri sem querer).

I play Sonic Unleashed with Vulkan on my i7-12700K alone without a graphics card on RPCS3, never experienced graphical bugs and it's smooth. I tried to setup Xenia and it's a dumpster fire, the game doesn't boot for some reason, the UI is bugged... I can't believe that PS3 emulation, by far the most CPU intensive of them all at least runs and works for me lmao.
@@saricubra2867 Not sure, but afaik Intel iGPUs were never stable on Xenia. Xenia is most friendly with Nvidia, which I have as you read here, with AMD being less preferable. RPCS3 doesn't require a great GPU but it does require a beast CPU, which I don't own.
@Dima064 Well, Sonic Unleashed runs above 33fps, maxing out in the 40s (i'm GPU bottlenecked). If i disable the e-cores, the framerate tanks to 22fps worst case scenario and that is AVX512 enabled. Literally the i7-12700K with all cores and threads is the minimum for a playable and smooth experience. That is crazy.
The use of Xenia Master can be completely disregarded, as this emulator is highly outdated. Xenia Manager is a third-party frontend for Xenia. It enables automatic updates, automatic configurations, and will be the only application you need to launch, as it handles everything else for the user.
In Xenia specifically, the GPU is responsible for performance. This emulator has very modest CPU usage, with the GPU bearing the majority of the demand.
Ok, guys do you know of a software, something like an emulators hub. A thing that would hold all my emulators and keep them up to date? I want to install (xbox360, ps3, psp, gamecube) emus, and I'm looking for something that might help me keep things organized. Any ideas?
I use launchbox, it is a front end. You can put all your pc games (even import from steam and GOG) and emulators, the only draw back is if you wanna use 100% you have to pay, but it's really worth the price. I think playnite is totally free, but I don't know how good it is as I have never used it before.
I always hated how Xenia had and technical still doesn't have it's own user interface. Xenia Manager SHOULD have been Natively with Xenia at the very least.
If you want to play the game From start to finish, with a consistent 60 FPS or more, without any crashes guaranteed, play using Vulkan and FSI turned on (USE XENIA CANARY, NOT MASTER). This will make the game not crash at all unlike with DirectX12. However, it depends on your GPU. With DirectX12 it might crash or might not. If the game doesn't crash with DX12 Then use it, as using Vulkan does cause some minor graphical issues which could be bothersome (1-ups and some items like buffs, and upgrades not being visible) HOWEVER it won't affect your gameplay at all unless you focus on every single detail in the game, and with DX12 you can upscale the game because you can't upscale it while using Vulkan (The game looks completely messed up if you upscale it while using Vulkan). Also DX12 has way more vertex explosions and has less fps. *TL;DR* (DX12) Pros: No missing objects, Upscaling Available. Cons: High chance to crash to the point of being unplayable, frequent vertex explosions, less FPS. (Vulkan) Pros: Consistently high FPS, no crashes at all. Cons: Some missing objects/textures/indicators (not really any important ones), Upscaling Not Available.
@@M4lIciovS Really thanks, I was using vulkan a year ago, my new card is rx 580, a year ago my graphics card was gtx 750ti So if I really don't crash with these settings, I will definitely finish it several times
@@SHADOWXFORCES Since you have an AMD GPU, then you most likely will crash with DX12, so stick with Vulkan. Also, there is a mod you should download that reduces the grass explosions that happen with AMD GPU'S on the game banana page of Sonic Unleashed. By the way, I just searched up gameplay with your GPU, and seeing the results, you should definitely have a consistent 60 FPS with Vulkan.
that's not how shaders work, my man. They are particular to a given hardware setup, that's why they need to be compiled locally on your machine, otherwise, they would have been pre-compiled and this wouldn't even be a thing.
@@BlackSun90 I got shaders for Gears 2,3 and Judgement compiled on a NVIDA card and they are flawless. I don't recommended playing a stuttery mess if you can avoid it.

what fps the ace combat ran is it stable 60fps????
i5 12400f will it ron at 60fps
In Xenia specifically, the GPU is responsible for performance. This emulator has very modest CPU usage, with the GPU bearing the majority of the demand.
In the description, it says that he uses the 10400f so, you'll be better than him ;)

Ok, guys do you know of a software, something like an emulators hub. A thing that would hold all my emulators and keep them up to date?
I want to install (xbox360, ps3, psp, gamecube) emus, and I'm looking for something that might help me keep things organized.
Any ideas?
Yeah, there's Playnite. Emulation Station Desktop Edition, Launchbox/Bigbox, Batoceta, etc.
There's a few.
@@MoonOvIce Thanks, I'll start googling them. Any preference between them?

I use launchbox, it is a front end. You can put all your pc games (even import from steam and GOG) and emulators, the only draw back is if you wanna use 100% you have to pay, but it's really worth the price. I think playnite is totally free, but I don't know how good it is as I have never used it before.
I always hated how Xenia had and technical still doesn't have it's own user interface. Xenia Manager SHOULD have been Natively with Xenia at the very least.
Then you code and develope an emulator. Be happy anyone decided to work on one at all.
Hope the wwe 2k games get working soon enough heen waiting too long for the 7th gen games to play again
you can play wwe 2k14 just fine on xenia
@GrumpyCat97 for one update and now it freezes as soon as it gets in match
@@Redtheseer that's fixable, in settings
Xenia emulates xbla games so much better. Glad it can preserve those titles at least
PS1 version with the black bars removed is still the best SOTN
I just want to play UFC 2 on my Rog Ally.
Why are you using an AI clone of Ricky of Two Bit da Vinci as your narrator?
Nice
You don't need a xbox one emulator cause most of thos games are in game pass...just get game pass unlimited so u have for console and pc
Has anyone tried Blue Dragon yet?
I tested it on an old build, and it was playable. The question is whether it's stable enough for several hours of gameplay.
this is like the only way to play fallout new vegas without it crashing every 5 minutes lol
Never had that issue with my steam purchase
Xbox One emulation hasn't disappeared just quietly working in progress.
Last update was October telling they are still active.
Вот бы на андроид эмулятор Xenia
Sonic unleashed is nothing compaired to how badly blinx the time sweeper games ran on xenia
blinx the time sweeper ran on xenia? since when??
Does Sonic Unleashed crash? If the answer is no, then I should be fine. Is it complete?
it does work i played it a while back
@ezabryan8992
It shows itself over a long period of time, I have a bitter experience with Xenia, a year ago.
If you want to play the game From start to finish, with a consistent 60 FPS or more, without any crashes guaranteed, play using Vulkan and FSI turned on (USE XENIA CANARY, NOT MASTER). This will make the game not crash at all unlike with DirectX12.
However, it depends on your GPU. With DirectX12 it might crash or might not. If the game doesn't crash with DX12 Then use it, as using Vulkan does cause some minor graphical issues which could be bothersome (1-ups and some items like buffs, and upgrades not being visible) HOWEVER it won't affect your gameplay at all unless you focus on every single detail in the game, and with DX12 you can upscale the game because you can't upscale it while using Vulkan (The game looks completely messed up if you upscale it while using Vulkan). Also DX12 has way more vertex explosions and has less fps.
*TL;DR*
(DX12)
Pros: No missing objects, Upscaling Available.
Cons: High chance to crash to the point of being unplayable, frequent vertex explosions, less FPS.
(Vulkan)
Pros: Consistently high FPS, no crashes at all.
Cons: Some missing objects/textures/indicators (not really any important ones), Upscaling Not Available.

Really
thanks, I was using vulkan a year ago, my new card is rx 580, a year ago my graphics card was gtx 750ti
So if I really don't crash with these settings, I will definitely finish it several times
@@SHADOWXFORCES Since you have an AMD GPU, then you most likely will crash with DX12, so stick with Vulkan. Also, there is a mod you should download that reduces the grass explosions that happen with AMD GPU'S on the game banana page of Sonic Unleashed.
By the way, I just searched up gameplay with your GPU, and seeing the results, you should definitely have a consistent 60 FPS with Vulkan.
If someone shares their shaders with you it will eliminate the stuttering through any portion of the game they've played.
Sharing shaders from different graphic cards and versions can break things. Always recommend not to do that and compile your own shaders.
that's not how shaders work, my man. They are particular to a given hardware setup, that's why they need to be compiled locally on your machine, otherwise, they would have been pre-compiled and this wouldn't even be a thing.
@@BlackSun90 I got shaders for Gears 2,3 and Judgement compiled on a NVIDA card and they are flawless. I don't recommended playing a stuttery mess if you can avoid it.
@@fabio78 It literally is. Maybe you should try it sometime.
