Did I find about the All Games In One Video channel here? Anyway, he recently uploaded All Playstation 2 Games - Every PS2 Game In One Video.
9+ hours of video. Enjoy! You might even find a couple of hidden gems.

Why the huge disrepancy in 'Size' and 'Size on disk'? Are you using compression or are there a lot of empty folders in there?

That's surprisingly not much space even if you compressed with 7-zip or something. Did you purposefully go for select titles?

using xpress4k compression but not on all files because it isn't self-updating upon file modification.

I actually don't have a clue, but what little I've heard points to the release being imminent and that it'll optimize the cycles of the emulator, as new superfast CPUs have been introduced since 0.74 that mess with the cycles real bad.

Got some crave to test Scarface on PS2 again, turns out there is already fix for memory leaks in one of the recent build.
Quick tests and it runs (and sounds) nice, one flaw tho is initial calibrating screen with borked lighting but p. sure it can be fixed easily...

Grab the Codex by the pussy Divinity: Original Sin Torment: Tides of Numenera Shadorwun: Hong Kong Pathfinder: Kingmaker Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag. Pathfinder: Wrath I'm very into cock and ball torture
What will it add to the table ?

I wouldn't be surprised if they re-instate save states. I heard that prior versions allowed for save states, and I would love to see that so I wouldn't have to sit through pointless start-up animations, crack old DOS games, or have to perform answers for annoying copyright questions... I'm looking at you Wizardry VII.

0.74-2?
It fix the performance with 64bit version on both Linux (plus some stuff for WINE) and MacOS.
Win7 got improved with automatic cycles so no more sounds problems.
Unfortunately - with some big changes some DOS games stops working. Whelp.

It straigh up doesn't work for me. Like - no message, flashes, errors. Nothing. Win7 64bit btw.
Some games have issues for unknown reasons (beside new OS not supporting stuff and breaking old games in general yada yada).
Same thing with Return to Castle Wofenstein, AI is turning off, saves breaking up, crashes. Both vanilla and unofficial patches, no matter if retail or GOG version.

You need this to get scarface graphics to work properly:
https://github.com/ThirteenAG/WidescreenFixesPack/releases/download/scarface/Scarface.GenericFix.zip
I am not sure if it will fix the no startup problem,might need to choose different compatibility options for it to start.
The only other fix to start the game is to start windows with only one processor enabled,but i wouldn't recommend doing that only for Scarface.
Edit:meant core instead of processor.

Recent, from Saturday most likely. Just check if Automatic Fixes is enabled.

Relevant what with 3DS emulation and all, but more about homebrew scene.

It seems Nintendo has finally brought their server security from the stone age into modern times, and days of freeloading with stuff like freeShop are over. From what I've heard you now get banned on the spot if you try to download the olden way. This update on Nintendo's part seems to have affected both 3DS an Switch. I wonder if scene will find a workaround because damn, downloading directly from Nintendo's servers sounds convenient as hell.

Dolphin progress has dropped considerably. Most of the few changes are UI stuff. Admittedly the only thing that it really needs at this point is to get Rebel Strike working right (Rogue Leader already does on SVN work fine aside from a minor graphical glitch in the sound test). Wonder if they're prepping for 6.0 and going to a stable release generally shifts changes from new stuff to testing.

It says right on the box "ルドラの秘宝".
