Current WIP on the PCSX2 0.9.2 beta has led to the PAL (SCES 5049x) version of Final Fantasy X being Playable . Thanks to a variety of fixes made by various members of the team, including;
- MTGS / DC mode stability - Great for Dual Core / CPU users!
- IPU fixes, including fully working sound in videos
- Pause and sync issues, no more random hangs, looping etc
- SPU2 fixes, including ADMA, and timing related issues.
With MTGS (Multi Threaded GS) / DC (Dual Core) features gaining improved stability, the game can be played at 'enjoyable' speeds, ranging from a base speed of 29 FPS in the most intense areas, right up to the peak speeds of over 140 FPS.[1]
This means that the US, Japanese and finally the European versions of Final Fantasy X are fully playable!
