Kept on trying different settings in RPCS3 and enabled hyper-threading for my CPU and that definitely did the trick. CPU load is now at ~ 40% and the games plays at +/- 30 FPS, so pretty much at its original FPS on the PS3. I also managed to get rid of the graphical and sound glitches and played through the first couple of missions without any crashes. Seems to be pretty stable now as well.

I'm so amazed! Sure, Red Dead Redemption does not look as good and impressive as RDR2, but it still looks fairly good to me. I also like its story and some of the game mechanics better, such as being able to buy safe houses. And I really like its main protagonist, John Marston, and the overall atmosphere of the game. Still one of the best games I've ever played and I'm really happy being able to play it again on PC now.

Kudos to the RPCS3 team!

Quoting: JahimselfAre the performance good? I mean do you need powerfull hardware to run games?

It's quite CPU heavy, 6+ cores are recommended.

Yup. I just gave Red Dead Redemption GOTY a whirl and all cores of my CPU are utilised by 100% and the game still only runs at ~ 20 FPS and crashes again and again. With a couple of graphical and sound glitches it's close to unplayable (mind you, its status according to the RPCS3 website is "Ingame", which means it still has some serious glitches; so I knew what I was up to).

Nonetheless, I think what the project has achieved so far is absolutely amazing and I'm really impressed. And I'm sure that other games have less problems and may even work perfectly fine.

Quoting: mr-victoryIf you have a PS3 you can use it regardless of model.

I know. But I currently don't have my PS3 (and respective games) with me and frankly, if I had, I would probably rather play my games straight on the PS3 than trying to get them to work on my PC. ;-)

Funny, I've just picked up Red Dead Redemption GOTY to play it with RPCS3. Now I just need a compatible Blu-ray drive to dump the game files to my disk (or get them by another way). So this is really good news. :-)

I was wondering if it is possible to only download games and don't have them installed automatically.

Since I always put my games in sandboxes I want to take care of the installation myself.

I think not, but I might be mistaken

Thanks!

I'm really looking forward for this game. An Adventure game with a Western setting? Heck, yeah!

I picked this game up for the artwork alone. But I also really like text adventures. Also, I really liked the demo, so there was no hesitation picking the full game up now.

I'm not 100% sure but I thought that the graphics and some of the game mechanics have been tweaked, similar to Desperados III. So the DLC may not be compatible with the base game anymore.

Quoting: tpauIt works fine so far with Wine. So even the gog fans can play it already :)

I can't help it, having the original game as Linux native from gog.com but the DLC as Windows game feels odd to me.

But let's wait and see.

After Desperados III, I don't have any expectations anymore when it comes to a Linux release on GOG.com. But if the game gets a Linux release on GOG.com, I wouldn't hesitate to immediately pick it up.

It took me some time (and I still stand to what I've written before; they should've done without the badges), but after giving Shadow Tactics a second chance, I was enjoying it tremendously. Still haven't finished it, but as I've said, I'd gladly add Aiko's Choice to the main game.
