And you know that while you're going to have similar OS issues that the current gen consoles the hardware emulation is going to become a lot simpler right?

Try to get GranTurismo 4 running with PCSX2 (PS2 emulator) and tell me if you can get that to work properly (I really want to know, I spent hours on that). Hell, we have not even a proper emulator for the first XBox, and it was based on PC hardware also. You know why? Because the authors of the few emulators that started back in the days say that it is to difficult to get this working. Now go figure how this will work out with the PS4.

I might look into Gran Turismo 4 but I'm not really that big into racing games.Last edited by Luke_Wolf; 24 June 2013, 04:52 PM.

Then there's also XQEMU that is trying to achieve LLE. So far it shows a corrupted version of the intro animation and some BIOS screens.

But people like you are the primary reasons the entire open-source community is ignored by 95% of the marketplace.
Thing is, OpenGL may not be perfect, but it is all we have. And it's cross-platform, not tied to the proprietary interests of only one corporation, which is a good thing.

When the PS4 starts shipping, a list of the BSD-licensed and other open source components will likely be detailed on a boring page in a manual, some small piece of paper and/or at some webpage such as: http://www.scei.co.jp/ps3-license/
