>>> older games can run with translation
Games are the most optimised code there is.
Translation layers might cut it with vintage games but not with anything modern.
- mattnewton 3y agoseems to be working alright for apple. I can’t remember the last game I played that was bottlenecked on the cpu anyways, seems to always be the GPU
- gleenn 3y agoMy friends love the new Baldur's Gate game which now runs well on a little M1 laptop

- jakobson14 3y agoFEX-Emu would like a word. The asahi people recently used FEX to run Portal on arm laptops. They JIT the x86 code to arm and their codegen is good enough to maintain most of native performance. Each new release brings them closer to closing the gap.
- Kamq 3y agoPortal is, like, 16 years old... Where's your cutoff for vintage?
- jakobson14 3y agoPortal 2 https://twitter.com/linaasahi/status/1638603205570613253 https://twitter.com/linaasahi/status/1638603205570613253 Portal 2 is demanding enough of a real-time FPS to demonstrate the principle and FEX is only becoming more optimized. It won't be long until it's running AAA games on low settings.
- brucethemoose2 3y agoYeah, and it was relatively fast even back then.
