It's been a long time since I publically reviewed a revision of dolphin, but now I think it's time to do it again. With the revision 6746, I experimented with two different systems and got both pleasing and disappointing results. The first system I tried was my HP Laptop. This system has a dual core processor, and could only run dolphin at 46% in game. Needless to say I was upset, so I finally tried the program on my desktop I built. This system has a quad core processor, and ran dolphin perfectly, 100%, almost no graphics problems. Now, I understand that my laptop may not be beefed up enough for dolphin, and that's okay. What I found confusing was since revision 6470 (and I've downloaded the most recent versions to be sure) Metroid Prime 2 Echoes won't run if dual core is enabled, even on my desktop. It crashes the program, just something I wanted people to know. The second thing I'm a bit down about is the game Goldeneye Rouge Agent. It can run, but not without major graphics glitches and sound blips. But I don't want to sound ungrateful, infact the opposite. I'm extremely happy with the state dolphin is in, and am amazed at the progress that has been made since my last review. I give this version a 8.7/10, and ask if anyone can recommend to me a laptop that can play dolphin like my desktop.
Thanks
