I don't ever think I ever had a legit download that used a survey, all the survey downloads that I have seen in my life were fake. Thanks for that, I actually googled 'PS4 emulator' because I wanted to play the new exclusives (Never tried emulation before). But no PS4 emulators yet:/.

I've been looking as well and very skeptical about all these 'downloads' these youtubers are disputing. There is a very good chance of them being a virus. I think it's much safer to buy the actual ps3 in this day and age. It's been said unequivocally on this forum more than once that there is a PS3 emulator that can run the bios. That's a lightyear away from running games, and to translate that into running a PS3 game in an emulator (by both refining the emulator and advances in hardware) you're looking at many years down the road. Just let there be no doubt that if you download a PS3 emulator expecting to play games with it, you're not making a smart choice. I love it when people say its impossible, many of you should be more open-minded.this is not' the 1800's and by saying 'it's impossible', 'You can't' is retarded.
Now if anyone of you said something like: 'The knowledge requires is vast' then I understand. If anyone wanted to build a system (FROM SCRATCH i.e: BUILDING YOUR OWN PC COMPONENTS)to run all 7 cores and actually program this sucker by themselves to make a ps3 emulator optimized for the windows operating system, they could, but hey, we're getting lazier and not productive. My goodness, do some research people!! Its Here now not lightyears! Jesus Christ, I am so tired of people who don't know posting in forums about subjects they aren't on top of. Here's an idea, If you really don't know, then dont post and make a thread 1500 pages long full of bs. Its Called XMBPC by SvenGDK google it find it download it love it Peace, Mr.
KNOw 1 Aside from your. Posting style, and the fact that your name and forum name are totally different, I'll humour you.
When I get off work I'll download and attempt to run this in an isolated environment. So did it work for you cause all i see is modding a ps3. I would like to know have anyone found a ps3 emulator I'd like to know if anyone found aliens in Roswell? Stop asking stupid questions. There is only a program that can run the PS3 bios.
It cannot play retail PS3 games or isos. Install Multiple Versions Of Internet Explorer On Windows Xp more. We're years away from it being able to do so. Feel free to download it, but go to a different forum for help with your trojans and rootkits.
And before you say, 'but hey it's not a stupid question!' Yes, yes it is. There is a 20 post thread with people including someone with PCSX2 development experience telling you that it's a stupid question. I've been looking as well and very skeptical about all these 'downloads' these youtubers are disputing.

Lightyears is a unit of distance:P. .Can we end this thread now? Because I'm imagining waves of people in the near future demanding xbox one and PS4 emulators because 'they're built like computers.' Idk if it will be easy to make a ps4 emulator. The system RAM is gddr5, which suggests that it is shared between the system and the gpu.
If the GPU is set up with up to 8GB of gddr5, it will be noticably more powerful than the xbox, take a bit more coding to work out less gpu ram in the emulating PC, and there will need to be system requirements set up to ensure that people don't expect too much out of the emulator. Sorry, it was late at night, and I wasn't thinking real clearly. I was telling myself a story about how that was obviously a conspiracy theory - Nvidia and sony teamed up with each other.
Nvidia found out that the ps4 would be moderately easy to emulate, and told sony to use a lot of GDDR5 memory in the next PS4, right before releasing the Titan; i.e. The only graphics card with enough VRAM to come close to the PS4 for emulation. So yeah, that's the explanation. I sort of forgot you wouldn't be able to follow from one sentence. The PS3 isn't awful to design; if you put your back into it you can crack it. The Ps3 was already hacked (and if it's hacked it can be emulated) but it's just a lack of someone going the extra mile and just doing it. *sigh* Again: the PS3 design is VERY hard to emulate.
Effectively, its a 7 core processor, with a high speed data cache the CPU's get 'fed' instructions from. Very hard to emulate this type of system, even if you had infinite processing power.
And we don't by the way; the software locks you would need to prevent corruption (remember: You need to maintain the states to SEVEN CPU units, while keeping the memory state sane. NOT easy to do; one CPU gets too far ahead, bam, you corrupted memory.) kill performance. Thats why the best we have is emulation of the BIOS, since that only requires a single CPU unit.
Little more then a PPC to X86 conversion. 360 is easier to do, as its architecture is more sane, but its still a 3 core CPU with 2-way SMT; same issues as above. (Nevermind, that like the attempted Xbox emulator a few years back, MSFT will flip.
Not a fight worth fighting.). I think systems up to the PS2 were worth the effort of emulation.
This excludes the XBOX. The reason for this is backwards compatibility of a single console, I buy the next gen of each console with the expectation of backwards compatibility as I usually sell the previous one back (exchange) or sell online.
PCSX2 was justified because of the non-backwards compatibility of the PS3 (after the first console release) and the fact that I have to buy my PS1 games I already have on CD back on the PS3 is stupid so thats why I would emulate. In every other aspect it is not worth it and I think you should just buy the consoles. I think systems up to the PS2 were worth the effort of emulation. This excludes the XBOX.

As for the original question, yes, PS3 emulators do exist, but they aren't mainstream. Most PS3 emulators only emulate the PS3 OS, and lack the capability to play games. Also, in reply to the many comments who said full PS3 emulating is many years ahead, they are incorrect. Sure it will take maybe several years, but PC hardware is rapidly advancing, and the PS3 was released 7 years ago.
Now that the PS4 is released, it won't take long for programmers to create an emulator. My prediction is once PS4 is mainstream, there will be a fully functional PS3 emulator.
