Arrow Icarus Movies?

Hmm does anyone else find this kind of fishy coming out in April? Makes me wonder about this emulator

Icarus is a well established emu, and we've seen shots from it before.

I know but it's still strange that they would release them on this day.

I will have to agree with kiraseed. The author did something very similar last year with a DOA2 pic so I'm incline to be suspicious here.

[Post April Fool's Update]
Contrary to the majority of speculation, every single one of these videos is in fact genuine. They are of course all sped up to 30 frames per second, and were recorded by our tester using Ector's Directx9 port and evidently improved version of F|RES' OpenGL graphics plugin - compare the latest Shenmue video with the previous one!
Again the emails will stream in as to why Icarus has not been released... the fact that I have just played Jet Set Radio (first mission only since the game locks up after completion of it) at only 5fps on a p4-m 2.2ghz should give an indication as to why. This is still running under an interpreter sh4 engine, but it is clearly far from sufficient for being a useable emulator by the general public.
Things will improve, but please continue to be patient, and note that at this time it is still just a technological achievement.

Well the Dead or Alive 2 pic was indeed fake, but that was before Icarus could run any commercial games
If anyone for some reason still had that pic lying around I'd be interested in seeing it for comparison sake!

One day maybe, but as the emu isn't even freaking complete yet, it's something of a moot point

Nightmare? I haven't heard that name since the DC came out. It was like ekaf2 at the time.
