*This game is extremely CPU and GPU intensive | *Shadow of the Colossus is one of PCSX2's most popular games, but it is one of the most complicated to emulate due to the fact that the original Playstation 2 release pushed the limits of the console and often suffered from frame-rate losses. This game is very CPU intensive, even for PCSX2. | ||
*As previously mentioned, this game is extremely CPU and GPU intensive. It was running between 20 and 30 FPS even on the original Playstation 2. IF you do experience slowdowns while playing this on PCSX2, setting VU Cycle Stealing to 2 or even 3 helps the game tremendously. | |||
