How Can I Play Ps2 On Pc

You can't. There isn't a single decent emulator yet.

Keep an eye on this site (http://www.zophar.net/psx2.html), and play your games on a real PS2.

correct, no good emulator and most likely you have a virus if you DL'ed any "ps2 emulator" on kazaa :lol:

"Soon" isn't really the word, I'm afraid. People are working on it, and a version that can run select commercial titles on a somewhat playable level isn't out of the question in the foreseeable future, but don't hold your breath.

To get some perspective : the N64 was launched in '96. Today, it can be emulated to the point where most games are playable on a decent system - but not without glitches, slowdown or bad textures. Now keep in mind that the PS2 is not only four years younger but also technically more complex and dependant on far more powerful hardware - which is why it won't be coming to a PC near you anytime soon.

Get a capture card, but you'd still need a ps2

i'd recommend getting your ps2 a modchip , and then you can play burned games on it.

jus buy a ps2 and get it modded

if they did bring out a ps2 emu you would have to have a really good system and still they wont play as they do on ps2 they will be slow and crash etc

only decent emus are for gba and nes

do the number of threads asking for "next generation" emulators seem to be increasing, or WUT? there should just be a pinned topic that says something like "ATTENTION: CONSOLE EMULATOR NEWBIES" with a list that just says yes/no where yes means "playable" and no means "either doesn't exist, you can use it to watch game intros at 3 frames per second, or it only emulates one game that you're better off playing the PC version of."

Atari:
2600/5200/7800 - yes
Lynx - yes
Jaguar - yes?

Colecovision - yes

Intellivision - yes

Nintendo:
Famicom/NES - yes
Super Famicom/SNES - yes
N64 - yes
GB/GB Color/GB Advance - yes
GameCube - no

Sega:

You might what to put yes next to gamecube cause theres one for that. It only runs around 5 games right now but now that they got it working the progress should be faster

i&#39;ve read a little bit about GC emus, but not much lately. i figured that even with commercial game support they weren&#39;t actually useful yet: graphics look right, but the framerate is just not playable on this year&#39;s PCs.

if there&#39;s a GC emulator out, that can run a commercial game at a steady 25-30 frames on a current PC (even if only a top of the line model), then yeah i&#39;d say it deserves a "yes." ;)

These are the two emulators I found from zophar.net. They seem to have the most up to date list of emulators.
