Ps2 Emulator

At first this was the best emulator I’ve used!! Download the games I’ve been trying to play from back in the 90s and it worked perfectly the. Out of now where it just doesn’t load the game and immediately crashes every time I try to click on the game to play it. Very unfortunate definitely deserves 5 stars when it works. But as of today it’s 1 star since I can’t give it a 0.

New UI Update

App works fine but the new UI update force the select and start button onto your screen regardless if you have a controller connected and it’s annoying

nice but…

the games run perfectly the ui is amazing but there are two problems 1. you have to pay for more games the 1 and 2. the app crashes when i press the one game i can play

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind words about the games and UI! Good news on both points: the crash issue has been fixed in our latest update, so please update the app and you'll be good to go. We've also revised our pricing, making it more affordable to unlock more games. Hope you enjoy it even more now! – GameX Team

Locked Save/Load states after

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.

Works great except

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!

Está rodando muitos jogos de ps2 estável

Coloquei hoje para rodar residente evil 4 e roda a 60fps com leves quedas para 30 no iPhone 16e! Porém só de rodar os jogos está excelente!

Response from developer

Bom, porém

emulador bom porém muito caro para ter todas as funcionalidades..

Response from developer

Olá! Muito obrigado pelo elogio! Ouvimos o feedback dos nossos usuários e revisamos os preços: agora ficou mais acessível ter acesso a todas as funcionalidades.

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

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

Very disappointed. UPDATE: Much better

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.

It finally works

When l played parappa 2 when l press L1 when l needed to it it now worked

Response from developer

Please update the app we have fixed all the issues and improved performance

Unreal performance

When this emulator first came out it was slow like you would expect running PS2 without JIT. 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.

would be good but so goddamn money hungry

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

Button

It’s okay but the L and R triggers don’t work so I would not recommend

Don’t waste your time

This emulator is too greedy,it makes you PAY TO LOAD AND SAVE YOUR GAME. Worst emulator I’ve ever used,don’t get this.

no

i think it’s despicable how you can’t save or load any game, like what is even the point of this emulator
