Galaxy Watch 5 transforms into a mini gaming rig with PSP emulation


The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 can actually run GTA and God of War, and it does so with surprisingly smooth frame rates.

A tech-savvy user pulled off something pretty wild—they got Grand Theft Auto and God of War running on a Samsung Galaxy Watch 5. A Redditor named ZenonDesingk managed to get God of War, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and even Forza Horizon 4 (streamed through Steam Link) running on their Galaxy Watch 5. Knowing touchscreen controls could only go so far, ZenonDesingk hooked up a Bluetooth gamepad to the Wear OS watch, making gameplay way more comfortable and accurate.
