==Installation==


PCSX2 is hosted on GitHub, a website where people can contribute to each others' programming projects using the Git version control software. GitHub is essentially just a showcase for your projects, to work on them you need to actually download and install the Git software.

On Arch Linux:<pre>#pacman -S git</pre>
If you are running 64-bit Arch Linux, you will need to enable access to the multilib repository, so you can obtain 32-bit libraries. You can do this by uncommenting the following lines in <code>/etc/pacman.conf</code>:
<nowiki>
[multilib]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist</nowiki>
 
Next, you can simply install PCSX2 using the package manager:
pacman -S pcsx2
