For now, I discovered you only can play in PCSX2 0.9.7, normal if not bugs, I tried put the GSDX.DLL in the folder of plugins of Pcsx2 1.3 but not work. Even selected this specific plugin(GSdx r3068). It's evident(It's my only solution yet).

|Description=The game freezes on the first loading screen
|Workaround=Fixed a v1.7.0 (dev-940) builds in '''Automatic fixes'''. For older versions: Go to Config > Emulation Settings > Speedhacks tab, disable the preset at the bottom left of the window if necessary, then move the "EE Cyclerate" slider to '-3'. Make sure "Enable Wait Loop Detection" is turned off. Once the game has loaded, it is safe to increase the EE Cyclerate again.
