Hopefully this will render the Ratchet & Clank series playable...

Are those games the most difficult to run PS2 games? Never was a fan of them so never tried emulating them.

The Jak & Daxter sequels tend to be a huge challenge to emulate. Thankfully we've got OpenGOAL for that.

In my experience, they are pretty difficult to emulate.

My pretty recent build still struggles to play some scenes with specific weapons (i.e. the Lava Gun was the worst offender, IIRC, I think it was R&C2).

RX 5700XT + 3700XT.

Generally speaking, the beginning of R&C2 usually has issues with LOD, and possibly even the rest of the game does.

I have never played R&C1, and can't recall my experience in emulating R&C3 but together with 2, they've always been much much slower than all other games I have tried emulating so far.
