I want to play some Guitar Hero games and Burnout 3, but I only used Snes and Ps1 in my entire life, I heard that we can change textures and optimize the graphics, any tips?

Yup, you need to go with PCSX2. I played my copy of burnout 3 on it, and it ran well enough, but with some minor graphic corruption.

However, be advised that you need to rip a PS2 BIOS from your console, that can be pretty daunting.

you've got 1 choices:
1. PCSX2

This right here. You may have to make some tweaks to settings but once you get everything set its great.

I ripped dragon quest 8 and persona 3 fes and both are beautiful with widescreen patches. Most games work great...except for one of my faves, spiderman 2, which I'm still waiting on a fix for.

Yeah you get PCSX2. It works well enough for a lot of games but use the wiki to see any specific issues and solutions for whatever you want to play. Seems like development slowed over the years and has never gotten to the level of Dolphin which is surprising due to how popular the PS2 is/was

Not buying a PS4 (yes, I am salty...)

Serious answer: I agree with the other guys, PCSX2 is the way to go.

Guitar Hero 3 doesn't work very well, unfortunately

Are you using software rendering? Hardware rendering can cause graphical glitches based on a quick Google search.

If you intend to play a lot of games using PCSX2, you'll quickly find that you'll need to make custom adjustments very frequently.
You are right, i'm reading some wikis about it. Nevertheless, I got guitar Hero 80, and works fine, since it's the superior game I'm ok for now.

I remember it being very easy, it's been a while since I did it but I remember just running a file on a USB. Granted, I already had freemencard or something installed, which again, I didn't find too hard to set up. It's been a long time though.
