    Can confirm. I’ve played the first one on Steam Deck and it plays great. The new launcher is super easy to use as well.

      Playing through the third one right now, the first 2 ran great already, and the launcher really is convenient, before it was all manual commands in the terminal.

      One advice I would give is to delete the rom file and the iso_data/{gamename} folders after the games are fully installed to save space, since it’s several gigabytes per game that are not used after the installation

      The project and launcher itself is completely free and legal to download, but if you wanna play the games, you will have to supply legally dumped copies of each of these games from their PS2 versions

            Agreed, just like any other emulation. The term “legal” threw me, because most people don’t have personal ROMs of PS2 games hanging around.

              Tbf, of all consoles, PlayStation games are the easiest to actually dump legally owned copies of, all you need is a bluray reader and you can do all of them.
