Filters and shaders!

I just run it all on a CRT. On systems from 5th gen and back on a CRT Monitor with a CRT filter cause im not gonna spend money on buying every single console pre-5th gen and hooking them up via S-video on my JVC. I rather use an emulator and pluging them up on the Sony CRT Monitor via VGA. Looks great and plays better *ahem* PSX *ahem*
 
CRT-Mattias is the best looking shader that I have used, especially for 3d games. However it has almost no options and i wish you could tone down some things. But yeah, seriously the best looking one especially if you care about the emulating the atmosphere of playing on a composite and don't care about PVM level sharpness

CRT-Mattias is gorgious, I usually just reduce curvature a bit. NewpixieCRT got inspired by it and you can tweak a few more parameters but they're both awesome. Love those rolling scanlines.
 
I've tried using CRT filters and things like that but I don't really like them for the most part because they don't really look the same as an actual CRT. Scanlines on a real CRT didn't look like static, unmoving lines that make things slightly blurry. They flickered and moved. CRT screens felt like they were always moving when you watched them. Looking at a static grid of lines with some distortion effects isn't really the same at all.
 
oh on ps1 its ok i was mainly talking about people using them on like snes games
XD I did that too. 25 years ago back in the ZSNES era on a SVGA CRT. And I thought it looked better than the real thing.

CRT-Guest-Advanced-NTSC shader, trying to aim for a composite effect - Looks almost as good as a VGA 256 colors game.

Everything up to PS2 i like it Native.I use some Fancy stuff on Citra and other Handheld emu´s cause on big screen it´s too pixelated sometimes but i try to keep it as accurate as possible.I used PSXfin for 15 years because no shaders,no fancy stuff and such.
 
I think the xbrz and bilinear ones are the worst ones. And i don't use filters that much in general
