PS2Recomp tool enables native PlayStation 2 games on PC

gamekult.com (French)

A new tool, PS2Recomp, aims to bring PlayStation 2 games to PC natively by recompiling their code, bypassing traditional emulation. This method transforms PS2 game code into modern C++ code, allowing them to run directly on current hardware, potentially offering better performance and stability than emulators. Similar projects have successfully ported N64 games to PC, demonstrating the potential of recompilation for preserving video game heritage and overcoming hardware obsolescence.
