Hello guys and gals, it's me Mutahar again! This time we take a look at the world of video game emulation/preservation. This time I go over one of the most requested games, MGS4. It runs not only well enough to bypass original hardware but it comes with numerous enhancements as well. It raises the question for Bloodborne and numerous games from the previous generation to finally one day be preserved without being at the heel of big corporations. Thanks for watching!

YEAHHHHH BABY!! EMULATION
Emulation is the one thing keeping most of gaming history from becoming content for lost media youtube channels.
@Diamond Frieza My one gaming hot-take that I will die on a hill for is that piracy is a human rights issue in a few ways, much beyond just an intellectual property crime, including the one as you mention. But that's neither here nor there.
No matter how hard Nintendo complains about emulation being synonymous with piracy, people will always find ways to preserve older video games via emulation. Also, Nintendo can shut down all the rom sites they want for now, but it will not stop people from getting these games one way or another.
Emulating Nintendo games is morally correct.
@Special Operations india
Also, it preserves the fact that games before came COMPLETE and came FEATURE FULL.

Correction, native Americans are genetically traced from two mass movement events into the continent via the land bridge. Even the foxes ancestral genetic history can be traced down and around the Andes mountains. Very interesting. Essentially they’re estranged Asians.
Emulation is another example of how the biggest heroes go unnamed... Thank you all for preserving the past and you are heavily appreciated by everyone
Agreed. Emulation is the one of the thing I enjoy the most in the current times, with the geniuses around the world. Thank you to the people who made these Emulation possible.
There should be a onipresent memorial of everyone that translated, subbed, modded, patched and/or did a primordial job for everyone, fruit of hours of labor, passion and no immediate monetization.
@YeaMan paige from gta online lol?
It's just incredibly convenient too. My steam deck is now my switch, wii u, 3ds, etc. I don't have to go through the hassle of individually charging my handhelds, manually inserting games, playing with the bad peripherals. It is nice to go back to the original hardware every now n again, but my sd is just so accommodating.
Except by the greedy companies that dmca the community. Lmao
Demon Souls runs like butter on RPCS3. Has patches for unlocking fps, disabling motion blur, write color buffer fixes lighting issues, and you can scale it to your current monitor (1440p, 4k, etc).
Just literally discovered this on my own last night and i love it :-)
@@prisonjazzz It was awesome to play it through fully. I never owned a playstation past ps2 and am a huge FromSoft fan. Now, I just need to pray for Bloodborne.
It’s so weird because you can run Demon’s Souls at 4k60 on a Ryzen 5600H but then a game like Last of Us requires a flagship i9 to run well, and even then it dips to 20fps in difficult areas.
Me and my bestie play through it the other year, was lots of fun, co-op works with private servers :p

Emulation is here to stay and needs too. Emulation can legit be bigger than normal gaming one day tbh
Emulation IS normal gaming! It's the best way to experience the games of yesteryear with quality of life improvements, mods, texture packs, and without the limitations set by consoles of the time. Games are just games! Who gives a shit if the game is old? :)
Dunno about bigger because you’ll still have current tech running current games always, and PC has such a large and flexible catalogue already without emulation, but emulation isn’t going anywhere it’s needed to preserve and enjoy classic games.
That will never happen because fascist gaming corporations with all their money/power will never allow that to happen
I think the thing that makes emulation defacto normal gaming is the fact that it's the closest thing to a traditional console experience. No long game installs, no signing up to a million accounts just to play a single player game, no online activation, no DRM, no content removal or changes. Once an emu is setup you just pick your game and play it
@@talibong9518 exactly that’s how I see it
switch emulation is so good that I think you get a better experience that way shortly after launch. it's been getting better so fast, you can see improvements in compatibility and performance nearly daily.
Of course its better the switch isn't great, even giving it the benefit of the doubt with 1st party stuff it can still run terribly.
I couldn't stop laughing when I heard they we're going to try to put MWII on it when it still runs poorly on PC sometimes.
I simply cannot get Switch games to run well on my hardware, and I'm not running a potato, so I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. I've tried Metroid Dread and Link's Awakening, and they both have a lot of emulation problems for me.

Every game so far runs great on my steam deck except Pokémon sv but that’s because it’s a new game
Anyone know if pokemon snap 2 is fully playable yet? Haven't checked in a while, it would inevitably freeze at the same point early in the game
I beat Demon's Souls 2009 at 60 fps as well as the God of War Trilogy + the two PSP games with RPCS3 and I am immensely thankful to that emulator for letting me experience those games

I agree 100%, games need to be preserved, especially since scumbag developers love to cut content after release, for example playing GTA Trilogy on pcsx2 is unique experience that no other remaster or a remake will ever give, and that applies to every game that has ever came out whether it's NES or Wii or PS3 or Xbox or even every handheld. We deserve to emulate and play our games however we want.
Edit: to clarify I'm not saying that every developer is a scumbag, and I understand the difference, however that doesn't mean we should only blame publishers (and yes I get it that publishers are to blame for 90% of everything that happens) but still if devs can't code or cut songs/materials/textures and then blame others for their mistakes or poorshame people for not having the latest hardware to run their precious games, I mean look what happened to Saints Row even from technical standpoint that game is a shitshow or Battlefield which wasn't even that playable at launch.
So not everything is black and white.
We need look from different perspectives.
Yeah, Crapstar Games can pizz off with their bug-infested garbage "definitive edition" of the GTA Trilogy they've been trying to shove down onto gamers' throats.
@fours02 🇬🇧 fatherless behavior
Plus, the price of retro game now is stupid and don't benefit the artist,studio, or publisher of the old games, all that filthy profit goes to ebay seller pocket
@@fours02 relatable
@@bdabab1esaeas Clearly that guy is not a San Andreas enjoyer.
Yeah remastered games don't keep the whole original experience. It's quite disappointing to see how part of the soundtrack disappears and other modifications are applied too.
I'm interested to see how emulation will move forward with the increasing numbers of online only or service games with paid items tied to those games.
Here's the good and bad truth, those games ABSOLUTELY can get totally restored back to their former glory long after the servers have gone down. The problem is that it's an extremely difficult and long process. RPCS3 and Pretendo are doing a great job but not every console or title is standard and may never garner enough attention to get it up and working.
Let's be real.
Do those games deserve to be preserved?
@@ClokworkGremlin yes. preservation is preservation. ET roms exist despite the infamy.
@@ClokworkGremlin Sure. There is no reason not to preserve them, even if just for posterity's sake. We preserve bad movies, no?
The problem is most of those live services will likely not be worth someone figuring out how to preserve them.
Online only I don't know if it would be that difficult, in nintendo for example people can play Mario kart Wii online with fan servers and even sm64 that had no online capability (even the n64) can be played online

I always love hearing Muta talk emulation! It really is important from a preservation perspective, as without it there'd be so much lost to time.
@fours02 🇬🇧 no we still have those, however I'm sure there's some games that are no longer able to be played.
It is, i found arcade classics that were lost to time since the 80s thanks to MAME. Talk about edge lords, some of those arcade games you would find at a strip club that had nudity and everything else.
The real concern humanity should have is how much knowledge and pretty much everything modern is ONLY being stored digitally. If some event, celestial or man-made or environmental were to cause digital storage systems to lose their data civilization as we know it could be set back decades and decades, and if an event were to cause digital devices to lose functionality in general, most of civilization would collapse immediately.
@@johnr797 If any god decides that I can't play the old FE games anymore I gotta take that as a sign...
FINALLY! Emulation should 100% be more supported / legal
So you’re saying you want every game to be open source, ruining the market for gaming as an industry and causing developers to lose motivation to make games as their software, by your expectation, should be profitless and usable on every platform. I’m not against preservation of games, but I believe that a game has to be old enough for its shelf life to pass before emulation should be used.
As for the legal part: emulation (piracy) is a breach of the data protection act (2018) and the computer misuse act (19something), which these are criminal offences, however the internet is what prevents legal action, as you cannot possibly know if someone has emulated a game from a website. I recommend you don’t show off your emulated games to an officer as there are still charges for having downloaded pirated software, but you yourself did not upload the code to the internet so you are not going to actively be hunted down for downloading something from the internet which cannot be proven easily.
That’s my two and a half cents.
@@KirBYEonyt eh its just too hard to say after 10-20 years or some other ruling that it should become legal? its not like after 20 years after a game dropped i can purchase it from the Developer, u only buy it from 3rd Party which doesnt support the dev
@@DensenBro well that’s only partially true. You haven’t considered that a developer may release their software themself, after all the point is to keep the game then I do not see why the developer would not make it available. There is also the possibility that these 3rd parties must be licensed therefore giving royalties to the developer for their game, however the developer still owns the rights to the intellectual property so this also resolves the issue of game preservation. Personally if i made a game and it was 10+ years old i’d probably make it open source, since it’s no longer going to be updated. (Open source games != free automatically but im not microsoft so i wouldn’t sell it at the original price)
I mean, emulation is legal. Getting the games on the other hand, is the more legally iffy part.
Emulation (in and of itself) is legal.
Just want to say thanks Muta, it was you who put the idea in my head to emulate. I was always worried that I would lose my WiiU and Xenoblade X (along with the hours sunk into it). Especially since it was never remade for the switch. Set it all up and it looks and plays better than on the original WiiU. I now have multiple emulators up and running on my PC.
As a diehard fan of emulation and preserving games, software, and history, I agree 100% that this is the right thing to do. I've been emulating since Nesticle came out, back in the Windows 95, Windows 98 era.
same im an emulation nation founder myself lol
Love you Muta. I love that you are going to war for us. Emulation is absolutely a needed topic from a bigger youtuber, and you are growing into one of my favorites!
Sorry you got hit by the Bots, Nord, they're getting out of hand. But, yeah, emulation needs to be talked by more people and become a bigger topic, and I'm glad we have Mutahar as one of the people that does it.

6:40 the fact that I can play that game without sacrificing much of it's graphics while also occupying 8-16 gb of storage instead of 115gb (cuz that's what my game downloaded from epic games takes right now, with online included, feature that I don't use ) is more than enough for me to emulate it if you only want to experience the story.
To that I answer that Online also contains a lot of content beyond GTA V story mode that is also enjoyable. Also, cars. Cars, cars, cars. There's modding possible to include all the Online cars in the offline component. That's not really possible on console AFAIK. There is certainly bloat. But is it all bloat? I disagree.
I'm also fairly certain there's no need to run servers due to how networking works in GTA:O (there's no dedicated servers beyond login, matchmaking, account status including all your prized possessions aka savegame, and paying for sharkcards!) to play the Online content even with friends, so if R* shuts down their servers we should still be able to come together and play. If anything, I'm sure someone will pull off a FiveM "Vanilla GTA:O" server content preset when they do shut down GTA:O.
Wasn't that because they made a full version of the game for every language it was translated into, instead of working translation into the same copy of the game code? So it's 115gb because there are 6 or so full copies of the game, just translated into different languages
@GTX_LordBacon235 yep!! This was deemed OK because "bah, storage space"
Emulators are so sick man, I’ve been able to play through the entire Monster Hunter series with them, and that’s already great, but with Citra and PPSSPP, I’ve been able to play most of the games with friends, and the multiplayer is relatively seamless which is completely crazy for games that came out upwards of 10 years ago. Massive hugs and kisses towards those who make all of that work
Emudeck has made the emulation scene so plug and play for me. It automatically configures the emulators to work on whatever youre playing on. Fucking love it.

It's truely scary how preservation seems to be a foreing concept for modern of gamers. I confess that game preservation was not in my priority list either in the 80's and 90's but now I understand how bleak things would be if everything would have vanished to a puff of "internet smoke" like live service games these days.
@@acrane3496 bruh, that “overwhelming positive” is kinda useless when compared to 20x more reviews of Sekiro's "very positive" rating. heck when you hover on the very positive rating, it says 94% positive rating which is only 1% away from overwhelming positive... its already best game 2019.

i love emulation i almost have my dream setup. i think a hacked ps5 would really be it tho. stream my pc as every console to the ps5 and have access to plex type server the shield lets me incorporate everything in one area to an extent. i really like using hand held devices like a switch or phone as a controller for ds 3ds wii u games... doubles as a decent mouse and keyboard too lol. dont forget that switch controllers are also wii nunchucks... there is this cool thing that turns any monitor into a touch monitor that could be cool from the couch and the sunglass with augmented reality for me extra monitors. endless amounts of Mario kart tracks homebrew

I've only recently started to use retroarch on a regular basic because of my frustration with older games being stuck on old hardware, or costing an arm and leg on ebay.

I like having the consoles and physical media like most people do, but I'll also be emulating alongside them 👍
I think you should seriously consider investing in a steam deck. I have one, and it's super easy to set up all your downloaded game copies with a program called EmuDeck. Yeah it'll cost you anywhere between $400~$500, depending on how much you decide to spend on SD cards, peripherals, and/or other expandable media, but it's so goddamn worth it in the long run.
@@MastaGambit I have heard many good things on the steam deck, it's definitely something I'll consider in the future. Also the whole handheld pc approach is appealing.
I also have a series S and X and have considered installing retroarch on the S to run roms on that too, but I've watched a few videos on it and it seems more complicated than a the more straightforward laptop/pc retroarch set up. Either way it's an option.
Did you ever make a video on how to back up all your console games? I want to do that with my switch games and all my other older consoles but I don't know how. Would like to learn.

As a new game developer I applaud the emulation scene because someday down the road 20+ years from now my game may not be playable without emulation or intervention by me or my team, and while I want to make money at the end of the day video games are art and meant to be experienced. Not all devs will have the time or ability to patch their software forever.
Emulation is a genius creation to relive old memories. Me and my wife love emulation. We play two player games on retroarch. The best thing ever happened !
Emulation is extremely important for the preservation of old games.
Dear Mutahar. You have genuinely inspired me to make a server specifically to back up my games. all of my ps1, ps2, ps3, and ps4 games are preserved thanks to the information you have given me. I am THANKFUL that I can enjoy these games even if i cant play online. Thank you.
I don't even understand why people cry about pirating like bro even IF I buy a 10 year old game the company still isn't making money because they don't sell the game anymore I would just be buying an overpriced game from some dude , either way pirating or not they won't make a buck
Pokemon fans, at least in my country, were so snobby about this. What was the point of paying 3x the price for a DS game in 2012 unless you wanted the damn poke walker?
@@SilentProti The thing is you can buy a pokewalker separate from the game so that makes the point of buying the game from someone else price gouging even more moot. I backed up my own copy of Pokemon Soul Silver onto my 3DS XL and run it through Twilight ++ so that way i dont have to carry the main copy and I unfortunately broke my Pokewalker so I just bought a new one and it works just fine with my emulated copy of Soul Silver.
One of good examples of game preservation is also Resident Evil Outbreak. Original servers died and players managed to create their own server and there's a whole community of players playing daily, you mostly run into the same bunch so in the end we're one big family and I love it.

Tomba’s great! I’m glad I bought both of them when I was a kid and they were still cheap to obtain. I still have dreams about the series continuing years later lol
I also was shocked when I see tomba, I haven't played 2 yet, but I enjoyed 1st one, I remember first playing the demo version on one of those jampack discs
The thing about the emualtion, there is such a market crying out for games publishers to sell ROMs, images and ISOs legally specifically to play in emulators but for some reason games publishers just won't do it.
every single game should be emulatable in it's original form, not a kilobyte of code/ost removed or added. It's a part of history and we need to keep history together and accurate. Copyright licenses should expire and move any type of content to the Open Domain of content after 15 years of existence. or after the original creator's death. Companies should NEVER be able to own any copyright license for any longer before something passes to the open domain. They are still the name behind making it huge if they are successful.
ESP with software. code. something that u cannot physically touch. only reason why we emulate is because the OS cannot read the format of code used for said game. always some weird program/app they used to develop these older games. app/programs they do not release to the public.
So glad I have a good PC and good Android device... I'm in my mid 20's. The amount of money I'd have to spend to get half my childhood back and that's just the stuff that isn't available to buy new or digital. Emulation FTW!!!

You basically said why I play San Andreas on my pc, the soundtrack is extremely important to the atmosphere of the game, appreciate you bringing light to this tech
yeah, there is no way I am ever playing San Andreas without the original music AND the original graphics (no matter how outdated it might be).

As you have said hundreds of times, piracy happens for most people when they don’t have a better option. If companies started a service that I could buy iso files and buy a psx emulator I would! Especially if it was more convenient, the hardest part of emulation is the troubleshooting and going to dozens of websites and dozens of Reddit posts to be able to get it running. If it were easier and behind a pay wall of like $9.99 a month get access to the complete library of ps1-ps3 iso files with an emulator included I WOULD… companies don’t care about this tho, and since they don’t care I see no issue downloading a game that 20-30 years old from the internet.
I love how well lit your room is in the sponsorship but as soon as the actual video starts it's back to basement lighting
Emulation is literally only a positive thing when it comes to old games and out of production games. Especially when hardware only becomes available second-hand and online game storefronts like eShop die out, it becomes the ONLY feasible way to play old games without spending increasingly large amounts of money.
i love how the game is GTA under the video, cause you can literally emulate it now
@@epic3890 idk, man. Anyways, bot alert 📢
What's an emulator you guys suggest? I wanna play some Bloodborne on my pc
Probably check into RetroArch since I use that for my emulator program currently.
Pcsx4 is a ps4 emulator
you can try pcsx4 but you gotta have a pretty strong pc
As far as I know, emulating Bloodborne on PC isn't possible atm. Would love to hear different. But as far as emulators: Dolphin for Gamecube, RPCS3 for Ps3, and PCSX2 for Ps2.
It's not possible yet, but if you want an experience that is Bloodborne but slightly different, I recommend playing the PSX demake! It's a love letter for the original that I keep playing until now, and it was my introduction to Souls-like games, so there's that extra bit of enjoyment.
If you ever see someone ask “Why do you play old games?” Just rebuttal with “Why do you watch old movies?” It causes their brain to lag
Licenses should be tied to a game not a time period.
Example: Rockstar makes San Andreas. They get the rights to use all these songs in San Andreas. They don't use any of this music outside of San Andreas. The rights should be in effect for as long as the company wishes to publish that particular title. If they aren't planning to use the music on any other titles they produce, then a time limit makes no sense.
Loads of gamers fail to understand the history we lose as time marches onwards and these games are a great example of that
Love the videos muta
Bots ahoy
One of my favourite aspects about emulation is how you can upscale and enhance games beyond their native resolution. For instance, I was recently playing Super Mario Galaxy via the Dolphin Emulator and it looked absolutely stunning when upscaled to either 1080p or 4K with anti-aliasing enabled. I believe the Wii was only capable of running games in 480p, so it's really cool how you can push past the original hardware limitations that the console had with emulation.
I’m trying to get into emulation, I want to be able to play the GameCube version of Legend of Zelda Windwaker but i’m apprehensive of what site to download a rom from. Could you help?

I agree with your stance that people need to back up their legally-purchased games when emulating, rather than resorting to finding ROMs/ISOs online.
However, especially after the pandemic-induced price spikes of used video games, I think there comes a time when piracy is necessary to preserve old gaming experiences. You mentioned Earthbound - I'm sure you're aware how expensive that game is second-hand (IF you can find a legitimate copy! lots of fakes on eBay). I don't think it's fair that someone should have to pay hundreds of dollars just to enjoy a game. My personal rule is that if I want a game that is out of print, and the price on eBay is higher than its original MSRP, I find a pirated copy online.
I've been emulating games for the past 20+ years. I was a little kid going to PC game clubs (when I didn't have a PC myself), I was taking down their custom OS, then downloading emulators and ROMs from my email and I was playing games like Marvel VS Capcom 1 ALL day. Some PC clubs had CD-Roms so...a 700 MB disc with MAME 32 and a few HUNDRED old games...we had fun.
And there's NOBODY that can change my opinion that games like Breath of the Wild or Pokemon Arceus are not best experienced on PC. I've modded those games to the level that they look like next-gen games and they run smooth at 4k 60 FPS and I have motion controls. When I give you the Switch Pro controller and make the game full screen, you won't be able to tell if this is the PC or the Switch, the only thing you will notice is "wow...I don't remember this game looking and running this good...what the F*?!"
When it comes mgs 3 I was one of the lucky ones able to grab the 3ds version when it was available. Considering how iconic it is and many other iconic games that are so scarce it's nice to see emulation get a win
I love emulation, I would just like Switch games to not get leaked early every time so Im more likely to get spoiled. So people who play these games early, please no screenshots until after the game is out, thank you.
the ppl who get it early are also the ppl who get it early physically, even if it werent playable trough yuzu day and date ppl would still share it on their modded switches
I did this when Splatoon 3 wad gonna release, i played on Ryujinx and run flawlessly, i played all the story on 1 day and then 100% the story and play online the day it released.
Maybe you should just cut back on the social media usage, if you're seeing content that you know you don't want to consume. Don't blame this on other people, this is a personal problem that you can easily solve yourself.
y'know, you reminded me of the denuvo anti-emulation they pitched to nintendo. wonder how they're doing on that front

Muta you a bad dude, I love hearing about people doing the work. It blows my mind how people are so fucking intelligent
I wish Copyright Law would also update, so that software that is no longer sold by any legal publisher in any form can just be considered true abandon-ware and be essentially public domain once again. If a games publisher wants to sell the game on some sort of nostalgia digital only market on some device, that's fine. The game is being sold in some capacity by the legal rights holder, but if there is no way to legally get a copy, it should just be considered abandonware
I'm super excited about this. A while ago my PS3 died and I just have an entire shelf of great games I can't play.
At this point
Big companies should straight up hire emulator devs and officially support emulation

i got into emulation during the Bleem! / Connectix VGS era - mainly because my parents would NEVER have bought a console. to be clear, our PC back then was a POS Mendocino Celeron with no dedicated video card, but dang, the Megaman X's, the Final Fantasies, the Metroidvanias of that era with practically unlimited memory card space? beautiful.
your emulation ad after the manscape ad was superb

Old titles sucks? As a 34 yr old I can confidently say that modern games are all predictable, repetitive, criminally monetized, and overly competitive. Sure tech is better, but mobile gaming infected console/pc gaming. I can enjoy old games without spending a dime
Games, music, movies, preservation should be key. The past was once our reality. It's what made us into who we are today. It's *worth* preserving. The fact that I can't go back and play some of my favorite childhood games today, because of stupid licensing issues, is, well, stupid.
If I ever learn how to properly emulate my collection, I don't just want to preserve my games, I want to try and dig into the guts of my collection to see if I can mod them. Like trying to increase the grid count in Gran Turismo 4 and modding in additional cars. Wishful dreaming, I know, but that is the beautiful nature of emulation.
I actually got myself a steam deck for Christmas and it's going to be the ultimate emulator for me for now at least
This is insane! W community W video

NVIDIA: LOL. LMAO, even. KEK, if you will.
I really hope one day they can decrypt the source code So it can be Ported to other Operating systems So it doesn't have to exactly be emulated.
That’s illegal and will draw attention from basically every game dev. Even Valve, who is known for being kind to creative fans doesn’t allow stuff like this purely to ensure that they have full control of their IPs.
what the other reply said... that would just destroy "emulation" and would be more like straight out hacking/piracy
For real many people dont get how hard it is to find an original console and game, even from ps3 and 360 eras, outside of the US and Japan
