Setting up the PCSX2 core was just as easy, as I simply transferred the BIOS files ripped from my PS2 into the //BATOCERA/share/bios/ps2 folder and copied the ROMs to //BATOCERA/share/roms/ps2. Next, I tried to run God of War 1, which the Radxa X4 managed to run at a flawless 60FPS at 1.25x resolution, with a couple of frame rate dips when pushing the scale to 1.5x. On the contrary, I was able to run a large chunk of my PlayStation 2 library at 1.25x (or in some cases, even 1.5x) resolution, which is bonkers when you consider that the Raspberry Pi 5 required some tweaks just to run a handful of these titles at barely-playable frame rates.
