When you say "dig up," do you recommend the remaster or the original?
I tried emulating it a few years before that when I didn't have any workable screen for my PS2 and that was not so good. A game that pushed the original hardware to its limit also pushed the emulator past its limit. Might be better with more powerful hardware than mine?
However, I've heard the remake is perfectly good, and surely easier to play with modern PC hardware!
And the absolutely horrid framerate is the thing that I remember most about the game. It absolutely ruined the experience for me and made me stop 'trying' to play it.
And no, it isn't me a primarily a PC gamer complaining about 30fps. It was like 15-20fps. It's was absolute ass, bordering on unplayable.
It's like you weren't grappling with a colossus, instead you're constantly fighting the laggy 15fps framerate.
And I don't mean it just by the standards of today, I mean by standards of the day.
God of War games hit 50-60fps pretty well on PS2 and had all the epic bosses and set pieces
