PS3 vs 360 emulation on (Linux) PC? (lemmy.zip)

Been getting in the mood for an Armored Core 4 run and there is zero chance I ever dig my PS3 out of the closet ever again. Also more stable framerates would be nice.

So, these days, which emulated console (and emulator) is "best" for this generation? My assumption is 360 because of the CBE but the PS3 was a REAL sicko console and has relatively little backwards compatibility, so that might have been a bigger motivator for the development community.

Thanks

RPCS3 is pretty great as far as emulating PS3 is concerned. You can check compatibility of specific games here but overall most of the library is playable to completion.
I can only vouch for Dark Souls, Drakengard 3 and Nier at the moment but all of those worked really well even on Steam Deck.

I can't say much about Xbox emulation but the two emulators I'm aware of are: xemu (has native build), and Cxbx-Reloaded (requires Wine). Don't know how well either of those works from experience, however xemu does have a compatibility page which looks promising.
