SPU2-X (2015-09-12) | With official GSDx plugin, the game is playable on Software-rendering mode. It is usually about 10–20 FPS slower than hardware-rendering (with 4 threads). With custom plugin, the game is playable on Hardware-rendering mode without bad graphical glitches, and yes, the custom plugin works on newer PCSX2-builds after putting SDL.dll to the emulator's root directory. Although the game is not graphically intensive, it is still much slower than other games with similar graphics quality, but runs at playable speeds. Some slowdowns can be expected. | Titus03 |

Runs without glitches in Hardware mode but when using High Internal Resolution (X6 or more) some scene causes the frame rate to drop 30%~70% + some echo in the sound when viewing FMV. | HimaOuji |
