    Default EMIX3 The New PS3 Emulator?

    Now before people get ahead of themselves im not announcing a new ps3 emu im just leading a little investigation
    a ps3 emu has come to my attention, now before people start spurting off that its fake and stuff im 99.9% sure that it is but just bare with me:

    if you go to their website link removed everything is nicely laid out and it looks pretty profesional, now after a Whois look up i find out that they have registered with a site called Fastdomain so it doesnt have a name for the registrar, now on their downloads section after viewing the page source it seems that the numbers they have are just typed in they arent an actual statistic, but why go through all of this trouble for a fake site, if anyone can get a hold of their source code (dont bother trying to download it unless you wish to sign up for offers) i would be intrested in seeing this.
    Anyone else have any other views on this site?

    Fake, obviously.

    It was still too early to have one, as we don't have any hardware that capable to even emulates one, plus there are too little things to prove whether this is real, or if its working.
    Also, don't ever download it, as it has been reported to have MALWARE.

    This is there reason for the site. they get money for people trying to download some fake junk they label as the source and you know that a lot of silly people will click it and make the people who made the site a few fast bucks

    I like how the version is 1.70....

    yeah it's crap everything I've found googling around whether other forums or even reviews just have that blurb of theirs on the homepage. Also looking at downloads from other sites, the sizes are way different, ranging from 8 to 28 megs. And a couple of torrent sites said no active locations. Also it seems that posts on some of these other forums of people asking if it's real or fake are getting deleted. But yeah scammy scammy.

    It will be quite sometime before we a see a PS3 emulator. We'll most likley see a Xbox 360 Emu before we see a Ps3 emu, but only time will tell. Plus who knows if there will even be emus for those systems.
