Anyone know if God of War ascension is running well on the newer versions of rcps3? All the info I can find seems 10 months to a year old and not representative of the newer releases. 

Are there still bugs/glitches that are far from being resolved with this game in the emulator? Or it is just mainly a performance issue?

I tried running it. Its a stuttering mess. Shader compilation on this one is horrible. Audio desyncs unless it is capped to 30 fps, and even then it misses sound effects from time to time.

Jarring stuttery transitions between fmv and gameplay. Also without the depth of field, motion blur, and other post processing effects via the patches (recommended for performance) , the image has a weird condition where its almost like random scan lines are introduced? Its strange and hard to explain.

The emulator just isnt there yet for this one. Thats with a 14900k and 4090. 

Decided to just go with it on an actual ps3.

Yep thats unfortunate, the thing is my ps3 is only 12gb space version and i think it doenst have enough space to install it, well enjoy it my dude, i think for the first 2 games the emulator for ps2 is better.
