Why is this at the top of HN? There's nothing there. (Or am I blind?)

The code is pretty damn ugly (but then, most emulator code is), and the project is pretty much dead, seeing that the latest commit is from 2010. Why is this on here again?

It actually gets upvoted.

Project appears dead (no commits for > 2 years). I did go so far as to check out the source in an attempt to actually see if it worked, but there aren't any instructions on how to even build it (or any other documentation at all, for that matter).

While I think PCSX2 could stand some improvement (its Linux port is well behind the Windows one, and even getting it to build is a huge pain due to lack of 64 bit support) I don't think this project is going to be it. I'm pretty dubious on the choice of Java as well; PCSX2 needs a pretty quick CPU as it is, and if it ran at even half the speed that could be the difference between playable FPS and not.
