Now we aren’t talking magical improvements. But before the game ran at about 75% (20-25fps), now its more 95-100% (28-30fps). Turn off the frame charts and you wouldn’t even notice.

the Playstation 3 emulator project RPCS3. I’m not sure what the initialism stands for but it’s an impressive feat in and of itself.
I’m not sure what the initialism stands for
It’s explained here if anyone is curious for some reason:
LittleBigPlanet, though I can’t think of other games with the acronyms with LBP is in for PS3.

Some of us don’t even know what RPCS3 is, so LBP could have been anything. I get it now. No need to explain. But maybe use fewer initialisms next time.
I don’t think RCPS3 has a proper name. But yeah, LBP has been this games name for me for so long that I don’t think I’ve called it anything else.

Made me delve a bit, the logical conclusion i came to:
it seems to be evolved from
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSX_(digital_video_recorder)
to https://m.emuparadise.me/Sony_Playstation_Emulators/Windows/PCSX/18
to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCSX-Reloaded
and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCSX2
There is no mention on their page about it though. https://rpcs3.net/about
So an initial word play on PC and PS merged into PCS later added reloaded?

Makes sense. Like MAME, like the other reply mentioned. No one says Multi Arcade Machine Emulator.

RPCS3 is the name of the emulator. It’s an acronym but I don’t suppose anyone knows or uses it off the top of their head. Like MAME, also an acronym AFAIK (as far as I know), no idea what It means, the acronym is the name of the emulator. So not really initialism.

When I first heard about the Steam Deck before launch, I was expecting it to run lightweight games such as indie titles and 90s consoles to emulate. That we can emulate Switch and PS3 on it feels magical to me.

Ohh nice 😀 it is so long ago when I last played that 🤯
Gotta get that running on my desktop ASAP to introduce it to my son 🤩
Thank you for the inspiration!

RPCS3 team has been making big leaps in getting games working on portable PCs. You’re still gonna run into trouble in some games with hardcore SPU usage, but a good chunk of the library is accessible now

I wouldn’t have thought Little Big Planet was a challenge for the steam deck
The game was a physics sim designed and a game engine as a platformer. It’s wasn’t easy to run even on PS3.

Well my point was mostly that I have no idea what LBP is in this context. I’m old so Little Big Planet is the thing that came to mind
I tried out Skate (1) this week and found it to be very playable as well
