Grandia 3 on PCSX 1.0.0 My Best Config

Hello World!

I'm actually starting this blog with one of my favorite RPG series, Grandia 3.



As we all know, its old but hey we can still re-live the game and play it on our personal computer through PCSX. I've been playing PS2 games on PCSX for almost 3 years now and I want to share my configs with you guys.

I'll start with my own rig.

CPU: Intel Core i3-3210 cpu @ 3.20GHz

Ram: 8GB
