 Sony Playstation 2 Emulator v0.9.6 With BIOS [new
Pcsx2
version]




After
nearly 16 months, here comes a new Pcsx2 version.
PCSX2 v0.9.6
These months were somewhat
problematic for pcsx2, due to an initial slowdown
of the development process. Then, last fall, the


Playground branch was created, and
development picked up again. Finally, with the
merge of Pcsx2 and Pcsx2 playground, the


emulator's development returned once
again as it was before, and now we can give you a
release which should (we hope!) leave 

you
happy.

We would like to thank everyone that
was still waiting for a release, and coming to our
forums. We would also like to thank


everyone to encouraged and otherwise
supported us. This release is especially for
you.

Important note: you NEED to update
DirectX or you won't be able to use the
emulator!
