It's a great device, I mean, I had to tweak the fps according to the games I played most of the time as per requirement. This time, I handpicked the games to play rather than playing some random ps2 games for the name sake of playing. Most of these games except for the ps2 exclusives were the games I used to play a lot on my pc back in the day, right after I reach home after school 😄 especially max payne 2, hulk and nfs ug2.
It can actually play PS2 games (not all), but its not really intended for that, but having a feature is a bonus, where it shines through is on PSP, PSX and to name the rest, GameCube, Dreamcast, N64 anything below PS2 runs very well.
Anbernic really threw down with the rg505. I still have my ps2 but having a portable ps2 is pretty awesome. Midnight club 3 is Really awesome and happy to see it on this video. Mortal kombat Armageddon is my favorite on ps2 and Xbox. Scarface would be awesome to see on this device. Simpsons hit and run is still sweet after 20 years. The ps2 is still one of my favorites to play and collect for. Gta vice city is great and brings me back to the 1980's. I'm debating if I should buy the rg505 or rg405. I would like to play ps2 on the go.
Thanks John for taking time to write such a detailed comment, I appreciate it :) well for sure ill be getting the RG405M and I will definitely do a comparison with the RG505. I did tweak the settings to get a smoother gameplay according to the games I played, some were working perfectly without any change in settings. Anbernic RG505 is definitely an underrated handheld! 🔥
Hi there, I have the version v1.4-3060, on the settings, under system- Multi-threaded vu1 is on Instant vu1 is on I turned the enable frame limit option off Rest were not changed, if you ask me, nfsug2 is playable but not in the full speed, and ofcourse the audio will be not in sync and would go very fast in this settings 😄 as a compromise to faster gameplay. Hope it helped 🙏🙂
There must be several files in that, one of them should work. This happened to me too. It was very irritating. Once I found the working bios file in the folder, the rest were working. If you found the bios folder, try every file in it one by one. If it still doesn't work, I'll try to do a tutorial video this week. Let's see.
Depending on the game, play with: EE Cycle Rate- 50%/60%/100% EE Cycle skip - mild underclock (1)/max overclock or leave default Multithreaded VU1 - check Instant VU1 - check Vulkan 1.25x Native upscale/or normal Enable Widescreen patches Some games work better with frame limiter turned off too
I have only changed framerate under system options, the normal I set to 140-150 fps, that really boosted the gameplay, but the same time, the sound and dailogs obviously were playing Super fast than normal.

@@bigretrostudio how playable is it like do you think you could genuinly sit down and play these games for hours and not having to eorry about big lag/slowdown and does it run higher/less then the rg405m and have you tested the 405m with gammaos?
@@bigretrostudio sorry if im asking alot of questions too but when you tested eith gammaos on the system did you change the settings at all on the 405m?
It's definitely worth the upgrade for playing ps2 games. You can take my word for it. I wouldn't say gamma os can make the entire ps2 games playable, but some of the games that were laggy on stock os have much better performance with gamma os installed.
As far as I know, the new Aya Neo 2 can run GOW 3 well. Even the steam deck won't be able to run at full speed. Once I get one of those, I will surely test it out 👍🏻
In terms of hardware its borderline on what the unit can do, you will be able to run some games but the problem will be how well it will run each which means lots of manual configuration to get each game that runs to run the best it can and even then there are some that just can't reach playable frame rates no matter what settings you use. For something like Gran Turismo 4 on the PS 2 it might slow down too much. The unit was designed with consoles up to PSX, N64, GameCube and Dreamcast in terms of specs so even if you can run some PS2 games well we are asking too much out of that SOC. I'm planning to mess around with wii emulation on this once mine gets delivered in the mail so I will probably add the reply if it goes well in a few weeks.
@@bigretrostudio it stated everythng goes smoothly. But when i see the feedback there r mixed reviews, stating this video didnt play the game more than 10min to see many errors coming later
@hspets4467 This video was made 9 months back when I got into emulation. Try to watch my retroid pocket 2s ps2 game testing video, I have mentioned my settings pinned in the comments section. All those that worked well on that would be playable on this too.
That is one of my 1st gameplay videos on a t618 device. It's equally capable as rg405m. I tested out 100 ps2 games on another video i uploaded please use that as a reference for this device too.
mortal kombat shaolin monks is one of my favorite ps2 games, it was so fun to play with a friend. i'm glad it runs well on the rg505.

Me too
Real
This device is amazing, glad I decided to get it. It's great, I can play on my PS2 games on my break at work 😁
🙌🏼✨️

PS2 games are the selling point here, this looks good thanks for the video
😎👍🏻
You tested a lot of games. Thanks.
🙂🙌🏼
Estaba indeciso pero despues de ver burnout 3 tan fluido 😮 ya no tengo dudas
The link is there in the description if you decide to buy one 😊

Early in the video I was like, “oh no that slowdown is really bad!” And then I realized you were testing a Matrix game 😅
😁
Nice might get this been itching to play some ps2 games
😄 Yup!
❤
💜
wow!
🔥
Need for speed underground 2 plays better in this rg505 than the rg405v?
Both are same chip, no difference
I just brought one the gray standard
If you don’t mind what’s the site or sites you used to get the ps2 games
Reach out to me on Instagram
@@bigretrostudio just messaged
Def jam fight for New York
Iv tested that several times for other T618 chip handhelds with the same power
Thanks! Have you also tried mgs2 and mgs3?
Please check out my ps2 game testing video of rg405m, it will be similar experience.
Thanks!
Hello my friend, can you tell me what settings did you use for need for speed and what version of aethersx2 did you use? thanks
Hi there, I have the version v1.4-3060, on the settings, under system-
Multi-threaded vu1 is on
Instant vu1 is on
I turned the enable frame limit option off
Rest were not changed, if you ask me, nfsug2 is playable but not in the full speed, and ofcourse the audio will be not in sync and would go very fast in this settings 😄 as a compromise to faster gameplay. Hope it helped 🙏🙂
@@bigretrostudio thanks
Most welcome 🙏
Test it on ace combat 5
Have you tried to get past thr island on kingdom hearts? My rg505 always gets stuck on the cutscene with the lightning clouds. 😢
Yes, mine works fine.
@@bigretrostudio I tweaked some settings and finally game loaded past it.
@talonsauerwein6760 enjoy 😎👍🏻
Why I can't play ps2 on my rg505 it keeps asking about the bios. Can anyone help me
You would just have to select a file in the bios folder 1st in your ps2 folder, and then it will automatically detect the games you put in.
Still not working. Is there any bios file that I can use?
There must be several files in that, one of them should work. This happened to me too. It was very irritating. Once I found the working bios file in the folder, the rest were working. If you found the bios folder, try every file in it one by one. If it still doesn't work, I'll try to do a tutorial video this week. Let's see.
@@bigretrostudio yes please. Thank you so much
You've answered yourself. Get a bios file from google lol...
PLEASE HELP ME HOW DO I EMULATE SLY COOPER ON THIS?!
Depending on the game, play with:
EE Cycle Rate- 50%/60%/100%
EE Cycle skip - mild underclock (1)/max overclock or leave default
Multithreaded VU1 - check
Instant VU1 - check
Vulkan
1.25x Native upscale/or normal
Enable Widescreen patches
Some games work better with frame limiter turned off too
could you detail the settings you used in aether?
I have only changed framerate under system options, the normal I set to 140-150 fps, that really boosted the gameplay, but the same time, the sound and dailogs obviously were playing Super fast than normal.
@@bigretrostudio I can't get my ps2 games to work. frame rates are slowed to a crawl
Iv done a set up guide on retoid pocket flip, you can try those settings for better performance
Any suggestions would be appreciated. For example wwe smackdown SYM
Please watch that setup guide video to get the right settings.
It's saying no BIOS found
Then get the bios file for ps2
Settings for need for speed underground2?

Hi, did you try the same with Gamma Os? Its mayor update in perfromance
I've updated my rg405m and will test it out soon 😎👍🏻
Are these games already built in?
Only God of war, rest I put myself.
Do you have a GameCube/wii games that work and setting to have set for the rg505
Check my gamecube test on anbernic rg405m, I've mentioned the settings in some of the comments too.
I got all my camecubes on my rg 505 do the ps2 games need to be iso after I unzip it ?
I think so.
How do u download need for speed and midnight club??
Search in google with the name of the rom and system, you will get many options.
@@bigretrostudiodid you make this video runing on stock firmware? Or its gamma os
Stock os
@@bigretrostudio thx for answering! You should defintly make a v2 vudeo with gammaOS installed, its boost performance and fix the oled sharpness issue
Cool 👍🏻 I already installed for my rg405m and loving it
Does Winning Eleven or PES work smoothly on Gamma OS?
I don't know
pass the settings of the aetersx2 that you used to play
Check my retroid Pocket Flip startup guide video. It has the same settings
Can you play champions of norrath?
Haven't tested
I have a question can you play all ps2 games on the anbernic 505
I'd say 50% , but you can push it to 70% if you know how to change the settings 😉
@@bigretrostudio thx I’ve already ordered one from Amazon
No NBA2k21
NBA 2K21 is not a PS2 game.
can play god of war3
God of War 3 definitely no, because it's a PS3 game. GOW2 is playable as seen in the video.
wich device can play god of war 3 pleace make vedio on that
