    <p>PPSSPP is a PSP emulator that can run games in full HD resolution. It can
      even upscale textures that would otherwise be too blurry as they were made
      for the small screen of the original PSP.</p>
    <p xml:lang="de">PPSSPP ist ein PSP-Emulator, der Spiele in voller HD-Auflösung
      abspielen kann. Er kann sogar Texturen höher skalieren, welche ansonsten 
      zu verwaschen wären, da sie für den kleinen Bildschirm der ursprünglichen
      PSP erstellt wurden.</p>
    <p xml:lang="pl">PPSSPP, to emulator PSP, który potrafi odtwarzać gry w pełnej rozdzielczości
      HD. Jest nawet w stanie przeskalować tekstury na większe, które w innym
      przypadku byłyby za bardzo rozmazane, ponieważ zostały stworzone na mały
      ekran pierwotnej PSP.</p>
