Emulation of original PS games
I would like to play original Play Station games (no roms - I have the real CD) on my PC.
Should I use a certain emulator?
Should I get the game on my PC (if it is legal)?
Thank you
Leonaru

ePSXe 1.7.0
Psx 1.13
as to your second question... it's really a personal opinion

Thank you very much.
I didn't mean buying the game again for PC. I wasn't sure weather ripping those CDs was okay.
By the way: Is there a way to connect a controller with my PC (yes, I could just buy an original console, but maybe not just play station, possibly other systems as well)?

I don't think you are supposed to use both copies at once, but I'm pretty sure ripping a copy of a game you own is fine.

I got mine at a Radioshack too, but sadly that same Radioshack (that had the adapter a few years ago) stinks now. They really have gone down hill.

To the last question: You could get something called Universal USB Converter, you can hook up a Playstation, Game Cube, and Xbox remote to it. I found mine at Walmart, it was 8 dollars. Oh, it also gives you two extra USB ports on it.

Thank you again.
Radioshack... I am from Germany, and have never seen a radioshack store here. Maybe I can get something similar at our own stores.
Hey, just found something on in the net! Did not know such stuff did exist.

Remember, you'll also need a copy of the BIOS for the emulator to work.
