The emulation scene seems to have been set alight after the arrival of screenshots showing Aliens Vs. Predator like the one below running on a PC based emulator.
 
Aliens Vs. Predator

Before you all go jumping up in the air saying CPS-2 emu CPS-2 emu let me sum what I know about these pictures from their origin, Wangy2...
    These pictures are not from a CPS-2 emu. They are pictures taken from a set of Aliens Vs. Predator ROM's that were dumped from what could be a bootleg board named CPS-1.5 by the dumper.
Whether this is true or not remains to be seen but in all honesty I have no reason to doubt this information.
