RE: PPSSPP on XBOX ONE and PS4
The PS4 having a Linux-like OS doesn't mean squat. It won't be open source, and if they're doing it correctly, everything will be encrypted and signed, not to mention both consoles are using custom hardware. These consoles are not PCs. There's no telling what they'll have implemented for security, so a "couple of months" is pretty unlikely. Sure, having x86 based processors would make it less tougher to understand code, but you (meaning a personal in general, not you specifically) can't see it in an unencrypted format, edit it, etc., so you're basically in the same boat as the PowerPC consoles at the moment.

That said, only time will tell. I would guess a bare minimum of 6 months to a year before details begin trickling out.

Don't get me wrong, it'd be cool to have PPSSPP running on game consoles, but "a couple of months" is a really unrealistic timeframe.

4GHz AMD 3900X, 32GB DDR4 RAM, 6GB Nvidia RTX 2060, Asus Crosshair 7 Hero (Wifi), Linux
