This game is very CPU intensive, more of which is discussed in greater detail below.

-|pccomment         = Because of not very good CPU & GPU  (Notebook), I've to used some VU & EE improvements. I typed my settings in the comments above.  This game is extremely CPU and GPU intensive, it was running at about 30 FPS even on the original Playstation 2. Setting VU cycle steal to 2 or even 3 helps the game tremendously.

-Also, Intel CPUs or AMD Phenom II CPUs work better with PCSX2 than AMD FX ones. My personal recommendation is that the CPU have a clock rate of at least 3.5 GHz (Intel and AMD Phenom II) and 4 GHz (AMD FX), as long as there are at least 2 cores for either processor. These clock rates, coupled with VU Cycle stealing will seriously help the game achieve 30 frames-per second or higher.
