Please update the app and try again. We’d be glad if you reconsidered your rating! – GameX Team ### 2/5 — Why do L1 AND L2 DON’T WORK *2026-07-10, version 1.4* When l played parappa 2 when l press L1 when l needed to it didn’t work ### 2/5 — Improving but bad pricing *2026-07-08, version 1.4* The updates not bad at all. More games are playable. Obviously not the large epic ones yet But the pricing is terrible ! Weekly or monthly or £30 lifetime ??? I like buying apps or emulators but this pricing is ridiculous And to the tightwad who’s moaning GTA3 is too slow. Buy it from the App Store ! ### 2/5 — L1 R1 L2 R2 is not working in Lma manger 2007 game *2026-06-02* Please fix **Developer response:** Please update the app we have fixed all the issues ### 1/5 — Lag issue *2026-05-09* So much lag and no full screen ### 1/5 — 1 *2026-05-03, version 1.0* GTA 3 would not run ### 1/5 — Pes6 *2026-05-02, version 1.0* I can't get PES 6 to emulate properly; plus, whenever I rotate the camera to the side, those annoying borders appear. The controls are also difficult to handle—I still prefer the PPSSPP emulator ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — would be good but so goddamn money hungry *2026-09-15, version 1.6* I just wanted to play a ps2 game and it worked perfectly, but you have to pay just to use landscape mode I have no more words ### 1/5 — Button *2026-09-12* It’s okay but the L and R triggers don’t work so I would not recommend **Developer response:** Hello! Thanks for your review, and sorry for the inconvenience. The previous version did have performance issues. We’ve fixed them in the latest update, and all games now run smoothly at a stable 60 FPS.

Worst emulator I’ve ever used,don’t get this. ### 1/5 — no *2026-08-25* i think it’s despicable how you can’t save or load any game, like what is even the point of this emulator **Developer response:** Hello! Thanks for your review, and sorry for the inconvenience. The previous version did have performance issues. We’ve fixed them in the latest update, and all games now run smoothly at a stable 60 FPS.

Lamentamos que tu experiencia con la versión de pago no haya sido buena. La última actualización mejora el rendimiento (60 FPS estables), lo que también puede ayudar con el audio. Sobre la pantalla completa y el sonido, escríbenos con tu modelo de dispositivo y el juego afectado para revisarlo y ayudarte. – Equipo GameX ### 1/5 — Very disappointed. *2026-08-04, version 1.4* Files that work perfectly fine on any other emulator don’t work here. Just does not load, permanent black screen. Not to mention, basic features like loading the game or using landscape mode are locked behind paywalls. So doesn’t even work and tries to get into your wallet. Don’t bother with this. ### 1/5 — Does Not Work *2026-07-20* Thanks for trying though. **Developer response:** Please update app we have fixed all the issues and now games run at 60 fps ### 1/5 — No good *2026-07-11* No good even after buying premium can’t use all buttons on ps2 games **Developer response:** Please update the app we have fixed those issues and now games are running at 60 fps ### 1/5 — Wake *2026-07-07* I tried it it glitches and its slow doesnt work at all **Developer response:** Hello! Thanks for your review, and sorry for the inconvenience. The previous version did have performance issues. We’ve fixed them in the latest update, and all games now run smoothly at a stable 60 FPS. Please update the app and try again.

But now my games run basically full speed. I am totally blown away! Only thing I wish it had was cover art for my games. But I am sure that will come soon. This is the best PS2 emulator around. Give it a try. ### 5/5 — Emulator *2026-07-04* Very good emulator ### 5/5 — Cheats pls *2026-06-16* It’s pretty good but can you add cheats to it please? ### 5/5 — Good just need some work *2026-05-02* It’s really good for a ps2 emulator and it just came out but I do have one problem with it, you can save your progress in your games fix that and it a great emulation tool ### 4/5 — Works great except *2026-10-15* A PS2 bios is easy enough to find online, no problem there. But when I use a physical controller, the program puts its icons on top of the game screen. Kingdom Hearts puts the health and magic bars right where I can’t see them. If you had an option to toggle these icons off or move them to the unused sides of the phone’s display, then it would be perfect! ### 4/5 — Pes6 *2026-10-11* Now the game is better than before, I really liked this update but there are details that everyone needs and it is that you can put the full camera or stretched also that puts an option that the game looks more fluid and that it does not get slow for the media games until low that would help a lot if you read this thank you **Developer response:** Hello! Thanks for your review, and sorry for the inconvenience. The previous version did have performance issues. We’ve fixed them in the latest update, and all games now run smoothly at a stable 60 FPS. Please update the app and try again. We’d be glad if you reconsidered your rating! – GameX Team ### 4/5 — Very disappointed. UPDATE: Much better *2026-10-11* Files that work perfectly fine on any other emulator don’t work here. Just does not load, permanent black screen. Not to mention, basic features like loading the game or using landscape mode are locked behind paywalls. So doesn’t even work and tries to get into your wallet. Don’t bother with this. Update: Files work now after the recent update. Games load now, though just a bit slow sometimes, sometimes also abit glitchy but honestly the original PS2 did that as well so I can’t fault it. Basic features like landscape mod and saving have been added - I don’t love that you only get one save slot (I believe it’s per game atleast) without the premium but it’s better than not at all, they gotta get us to want to pay for it somehow lol. Def worth using now if your mobile locked and don’t have money to throw at the paid apps (most of which literally function worse than this one btw, I’ve tried them) Thanks to the dev for not only responding to my original feedback but the team actually taking it into consideration and implementing it. ### 3/5 — Locked Save/Load states after *2026-10-16* As an emulator, this ran all of my ps2 games exceptionally. I found that you cannot upload your own load states after I bought the app. :( I was playing on armx2 before this and had some saved files, unfortunately since gamex load states cannot be accessed through files, you cannot upload your own save states, which is sad because I was pretty excited to use this emulator. I also wish the front end had controller support, using touch controls in between becomes a chore after a while, also wish it had quick memory save option with controller button combo setup. ### 3/5 — Not working *2026-07-05* I tired playing my game but my screen would go black and the R1 R2 L1 L2 button do not work . Please help! **Developer response:** Hello! Thanks for your review, and sorry for the inconvenience. The previous version did have performance issues. We’ve fixed them in the latest update, and all games now run smoothly at a stable 60 FPS. Please update the app and try again.
