In older versions of PCSX2 (pre-1.7.0), the emulator relied on a modular system where users had to manually select plugins for graphics, sound, and controllers.
Unlike older, physical-disc-focused plugins (like CDVD Gigaherz) which merely pointed the emulator to a physical CD/DVD disc drive, Linuz ISO acts as an interpreter for software-based disk images. It bypassed the need for third-party mounting software (like Daemon Tools) by decoding your .iso dumps right within the emulator's environment. The Core Advantages: Why Was It Considered "Better"?
