PS4 and Switch? What year is this?!
My guess is that they wanted to target the widest audience possible and with the PS5’s backward compatibility they got to release it on the PS5 for “free”.
(yes, they are missing the Xbox audience, but technically you could play the Xbox 360 version on Xbox One and Series)
That’s not what I wanted, I wanted RDR on PC 😟
It’s extremely weird that they only release it on PS4 with backward compatibility to PS5 🤔 (according to Rockstar)
This gives me a little hope that we can at least emulate the PS4 version (
using pcsx4). This can be done already with the PS3 version but the requirements are hefty and it’s pretty clunky.Edit: nm, pcsx4 is scammy and bad news.
Why emulate the ps4 version when switch emulators will have better performance and less graphical issues.
My thinking was the graphics themselves actually, on the assumption that the Switch version wouldn’t look as good, but wasn’t considering that this is an old title so probably won’t matter
btw I just took a look at the site and it’s 100% a scam.

They have a link to their GitHub but the actual application is not open source.

80%+ support for a ps4 emulator is pretty much impossible right now. All the other ps4 emulators can only play a handful of games. Even the ps3 emulator rpcs3 only lists 70% as playable
-
They appear to have stolen their name from the well known ps2 emulator pcsx2 even though the devs of pcsx2 aren’t making a ps4 emulator
If you want a list of legit ps4 emulators you can find a list at https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/PlayStation_4_emulators. Please don’t download pcsx4.
Well shit… hadn’t looked closely into it but that all makes sense. Thanks for the heads-up!

pcsx4 is a scam please don’t download that or tell anyone else to download that.

Edited my comment, thanks

RDR on the XBOX emulator is awesome!
The last time they re-released something it went so well…
Yeah, it’s like they’re speed-running ticking everyone off.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/t5Nwgd_T1-4
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.
Can’t we have a new game instead please?
All I wanted was a mission pack for RDR2, or even a direct port of the original to PC with the frame rate cap removed.
This is almost worse than releasing nothing imo.
