: Bumping the limit from 20 to 60 FPS provides a much more fluid experience, similar to the PS3 HD remaster.

Movement, camera panning, and CQC (Close Quarters Combat) animations are much fluid, significantly reducing motion blur.

If you want to customize your experience further, let me know:

Snake's movements and CQC combat might feel too fast.

To appreciate the cheat, one must first understand the hardware limitations. The PSP, while revolutionary for its time, was not built to sustain high frame rates in complex 3D environments. Consequently, Peace Walker was designed with an internal cap of 20 frames per second.

Open the .ini file using any standard text editor (like Notepad on PC or text viewer on Android).

There is a growing movement within the emulation community to legitimize these performance enhancements. An open feature request for PPSSPP is to create a separate, built-in database for that would include things like 60 FPS and widescreen fixes. This would distinguish them from traditional "cheats" like invincibility, making them usable even in hardcore modes of achievement-tracking platforms like RetroAchievements. This would elevate these performance tweaks from a hack to a standard feature.

Temporarily disable the 60FPS cheat and switch to a 30FPS or 20FPS mode for that specific section.

Tell me which of those you want (emulator optimization, hardware tips, measuring FPS, or checking for official versions) and what platform you’re using (PSP, PS3, PC, or emulator).

“You’re not supposed to see this. The human eye remembers pain better than fluidity. Revert to 20 FPS, or I will revert you.”

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is a masterpiece of tactical espionage. Originally built for the PlayStation Portable (PSP), it pushed the handheld console to its absolute limits. However, to maintain stability on the original hardware, Konami locked the game’s frame rate at 20 frames per second (FPS).
