Sony and its exclusivity stuff has made the minds behind the Bloodborne on PC, tired of their promises. With their fed-up switch turned on, Bloodborne modders are working tirelessly to liberate another Sony title from console exclusivity. The gaming community is tired of waiting for Sony to release the PC Port of this game and have taken things into their own hands, once again, just like they did with Bloodborne.

The modders are trying their utmost best to make Read Dead Redemption run as stable as possible on PC with various updates. Over the past few years, we've many of our beloved games go under the chain and lock of the Playstation console exclusivity on their way to PC. And the results are not so great. While it's proven to be incredible additions to the console, they still haven't released any official ports for AAA games like Bloodborne. All these, pushed us gamers to the wall, and we certainly had to take laws into our hands, and we ended up bringing an emulator that could finally run Bloodborne on PC.



And just like with Bloodborne, Sony's Red Dead Redemption is now being emulated on PC by modders, without even giving Sony the chance to make an official move. The brand-new PS4 emulator, ShadePS4, has been one of the most trending topics in the gaming community within the past few months.

This emulator is actually a proof of gamers being tired of Sony's behavior. The emulator is making surprising progress in running Bloodborne and other popular titles like Persona 5 and Resident Evil: Origins Collections.

The latest achievement of this emulator is running first Red Dead Redemption game. They've been updating the game with regular fixes and patches, and they've finally fixed the skybox issues that were plaguing the early builds of the emulator.

We know Sony is working on bringing the official PC Port of the game, but the gaming community is clearly tired. I mean, it's been over a decade and Sony still gate keeps one of the most legendary games we've ever seen from us.

Although, despite the advancements of the ShadePS4, the emulator still has ways to go before catching up with a defined gaming experience, as the game still faces game crashes out of thin air, audio and visual problems, and stuff like that. All we can do is hope for the modders to finally crush all those issues and experience the full glory of ShadePS4. But one thing is for sure, we're clearly tired of waiting for Sony to release the PC ports of popular PlayStation exclusives and the truth is, I can't wait to get my hands on the perfect ShadePS4 in, perhaps, a few months or years to come. You can do this, Modders!

1. I'm quite keen to see what Take-Two's legal team thinks about this.
2. The Twitter link is dead, can't load any content.
3. The news editor is expressing personal views on the matter, instead of simply reporting the facts. I'm not sure this is okay.

Not sure what the point of this is considering it already runs well on Xenia...

Wish Xenia devs would focus bit more on the less popular games, seems both e 360 and PS3 emulators are mostly focused on optimising the few most popular games.

I agree with your point, they thus far seem to have not cared about people playing it on a emulator, an actual unofficial PC port might be a different story though.

I stopped reading this article at sentence 5 or so, its mind numbing to get past this weird English, some odd mix of translator bits and ChatGPT and lacking grammar.

No offense intended, but its really problematic for any self respecting website.

This reads as data mined clickbait website content to be honest. What's okay or not is not relevant for this kind of content, its all about that sweet sweet ad revenue.

TPU is better off without it

A few days later:
"Modders being sued by Sony for copyright breaches on RDR PC port"

I wish them luck, though.

Just to clarify, I don't have a problem with editors' personal views per se — just mark it as "editorial" or "op-ed".

Sadly I have to agree that the overall style and grammar in the news post is somewhat not up to the usual TPU level. Must be new staff, I haven't kept up with the news here lately.

I agree. It sounds to me like a ChatGPT version of the funky bang-bang YouTube clickbait trash language that I'm not a fan of, just with broken grammar this time. We need cool heads and professionalism on TPU, not this.

Yeah this was extremely unpleasant to read. This looks exactly like a mix of translator and non-english. Written like an op-ed listed as "news" :nutkick:
