Best way of playing Wipeout these days? (lemm.ee)

So...after watching latest Noclip video, I was having a bit of a Wipeout itch...I have a rather decent gaming computer, but I was wondering what would be the best way to play the wipeout series...was 2097 the best one? Is there a good way to get it running at decent resolution/effects these days?

Thanks!

Thanks...RPCS3 seems a bit not too optimized for the Deck yet. Just found out yesterday it doesn't keep up as well as I'd like it to. Wipeout Pure on the PPSPP emulator though...seems to be a port with a few less maps to the PSP, and this one seems to make really good framerates (it indicates 60FPS...but seems a bit not too stable?), even at 10W capped power.

Other way around. Pure and Pulse were PSP first, then PS2 and later PS3.

The PS2 port of Pulse is graphically superior, and can be run using PCSX2. HD has the same content.

Instability might be due to shader translation, should go away as more shaders are compiled and cached.

Vita3k for 2048 runs very well (with compilation stutters only at first), and you can get the HD and Fury DLC for it to access the PS3 content (though with lesser graphics).

Wow thanks so much for this! I'll look them up this way.
