Hey

i know there are many Threads about those subjects. like 4-5 years ago my friend had Gran turismo 5 and i enjoyed playing it. that time i looked for an emulator to play it on pc but never found once since i guess there wasn't one out yet ?

Now its like 4-5 years later. how far are they now with Emulating the PS3 ? when can we expect an fully working Emulator of PS3 whice is capable of running Gran turismo 6 ?

My pc Specs are
intel I5 4440
8GB DDR3 1333MHz
Coolermaster Gm G550M
Club Royalking R9 290
MSI h81M P33

I bought like 1,5 years ago an PS3 to be able to play GTA5. i sold my PS3 like 1-2 months ago to be able to build my current PC.

Right now, and for many years to come, your best option is to get a cheap PS3 console and play your games there. Even if a fully functional PS3 emulator was released tomorrow, there is no computer on the market that would run it full speed.

The PS3 architecture is pretty complicated to emulate however its not impossible. A couple of basic PSN titles are up and running on the emulator (at 4-5 frames), but when will AAA commercial games become playable is a mystery. Don't expect anything in the upcoming 3-4 years (or even more).
Nowadays the PS3 is so cheap you could buy a second hand one for like 99$ and get GT6 for another 10$ and you are good to go.
