|War of the monsters v1 || Subjectively the best emulator to use. Used as PS2CLASSICSGUI's default emulator, it is the best one around for accurate gs emulation, as some graphical issues on the Ratchet series and Tekken 5 can only be fixed by it. Another interesting case is GTA SA's lack of need for auto flush on it, and being natively performant. Additionally, its VU0 timing is much better than Jakv2's, making it one of the best emulators on the PS4. || 0.1 || '''Rogue v1 and v2, Arc the Lad, Star Wars Jedi Starfighter'''
