Highly compressed games often run slower because decompression uses CPU power. To fix this:
Lossless compression of whole ISO:
Standard PS2 discs (DVDs) typically hold up to 4.7GB of data. However, many games didn't actually fill that space, or they used uncompressed video and audio files. "Highly compressed" files, often distributed in formats like , .7z , or .KGB , achieve their small size through several methods: i--- Ps2 Highly Compressed Games Iso
: This is widely considered the best format for PS1 and PS2 emulation. It is lossless, meaning no game quality is lost, and it typically reduces file sizes by Gzip (.gz) : A standard format that the PCSX2 emulator "Highly compressed" files, often distributed in formats like
