  • Right? I’m surprised, too. I think the main reason they’re able to make so much progress because one of the main devs worked on either PCSX2 or RPCS3 so they already have experienced people on it.
    But I think it’s also because of the PS4’s x86 architecture which makes it much easier to program for. Which also means it’s much easier to emulate.
    But that’s just speculation on my end.

    Titanium is awesome, though. Has similar corrosion properties to aluminum (in that it only oxidizes on the surface), is similar in strength to iron/steel, but is only about 60% of the weight iron. So it’s lighter.
    Plus if you mix in molybdenum and I think some nickel, you can have yourself a very long lasting spring that won’t sag like steel springs after several years.
    Main downside is it’s so expensive compared to iron :(
