PS3 emulation may not be viable until PS6 according to tech analysis, and Xbox Project Helix might even do it first
A technical analysis suggests that robust PlayStation 3 emulation may not be feasible on console hardware until the PlayStation 6 generation, primarily due to the complexity of the PS3's Cell processor. While some PS3 games run well on a jailbroken PlayStation 5 via Linux, others struggle significantly. Microsoft's Xbox platform, potentially through a PC-like 'Project Helix,' might offer a viable emulation solution sooner.
