    With a 720, you're better off to play with the original console. Emulators are CPU heavy more than anything.

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure I tried this with my original Shadow of the Colossus disc, and it ran at an average of 23/24 fps (which to be fair, is about how much it ran on the PS2). But in all seriousness, you'd have to upgrade your CPU.
