There are also certain power plays that can be reused, such as explosives dropped from helicopters, exploding tanker trucks, and shortcuts, but some other power plays are permanent and can only be used once in a single race. The power play meter is used up by one segment once a level one event is triggered, so the player must also choose whether to activate the less destructive first-level events as soon as they are available, or save the power play energy and build it up further in order to trigger the top-tier actions. Event locations, and the vehicles they will affect, are highlighted with blue icons for the level one power plays, and red icons for level two, and the player must time the action accurately in order to hinder the opposition as much as possible. The Level 1 events become available when one or two of the three segments of the bar are full, while the Level 2 events can only be triggered upon a full bar. The severity of the events available to trigger varies depending on how full the player's meter is. Such events range from shockwave-inducing explosions to buckling highways and dam breaches. I do own a licensed PC and PS3 discs of Split/ Second, but I did not want to buy the PSP console just to try the game for two or three days.Target-rendered screenshot showing cars driving past an exploding airport terminal. My thanks to the developers of PPSSPP for allowing me to try my favorite game in this pocket version. I assume the emulator clears some kind of graphics cache meanwhile? The overall performance is a bit slower than it should be and the ingame picture is not perfect, but again, it is fully playable.
I developed a system which seems to help (maybe?) a bit - Whenever I see a first short sign of freezing (a short pause), I press ESC to get into PPSSPP menu and then I can continue. The longest session without a crash took approx 45 mins or so sometimes it crashes after 2 minutes. However the emulator still crashes sometimes with unpredictable frequency. The game runs OK and you can actually finish all the tracks, gain scores, create and save profiles etc. Hardware: AMD FX6100 6-core (Bulldozer) + Radeon HD7970 Changing any settings in the emulator does not help too. Selecting compatibility of the exe file with Win 7 x86 or older Windows does not help. Notes : The menu is great and runs without any glitches, however after selecting a track the emulator freezes.
