## Useful for

- Run the PS5 game on Windows by copying your own decrypted files next to the exe
- Reduce GPU load by setting 1080p or 1440p in resolution.txt
- Play with keyboard, mouse or a DualSense/XInput gamepad

## Why it’s here

- 2 stars so far today, about 27 expected by the end of the day.
- The spike has held for 2 days in a row — not a one-off blip.
- The repository is 1 day old and already has 60 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #193.
- About 9 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
