* As of r5371 software mode works ok and you can get rid of some major graphical glitches like the lines that cover your entire screen. However even with a quad core the game still ran slow unless you used a combination of hacks and EE and VU cycle stealing. Using anything other than native resolution causes the emulator to crawl to a halt and anything higher can cause your computer to hang.
