And the day has come – I’m releasing a very early alpha version of 0.9.7 – it does play some games but you are advised to do a lot of save states.

I’m going to continue working on this so hopefully will get better as the time goes on.

You can grab it here: pcsx2 0.9.7.dmg

The installer includes another mandatory package – WXWidgets.pkg which should be installed after Libraries.pkg. Note that Uninstaller.pkg is going to delete the whole install but otherwise 0.9.6 and 0.9.7 coexist well.

Here’s how FFX looks on 0.9.7 vs 0.9.6:
