Emulator For Playstation?
I was wondering if you guys have any experience using a PS emulator on Arch Linux? I have one game I would love to play from my childhood and am not sure if anyone has been able to get a specific emulator program to work on Arch Linux?

Re: Emulator For Playstation?
Both pSX and ePSXe are in AUR and work great. ePSXe is plugin based and so allows for more customizability (and frustration at times), whereas pSX aims at providing an experience as close to the original playstation as possible (this means no video smoothing, etc). Personally, I prefer pSX because of its simplicity. I suggest trying them both out and seeing which you like better.

Edit:
I always use ePSXe in Win, but I read from some forum that pSX is more realible.

Oh thanks! I really just want to play Einhander which was by far one of the best games I ever played on the original PS.

Re: Emulator For Playstation?
Nice thread. I've played on ePSXe with my i945 chipset and it was nice. Even used the PSP as a pad (FuSa Gamepad stuff)

Re: Emulator For Playstation?
The only problem is pSX is 32bit only.

Re: Emulator For Playstation?
ePSXe 1.7.0 runs flawlessly in wine with Pete's OpenGL2 video plug-in. In fact, it runs better in wine than it does on my Windows XP partition. It also can improve the graphics over what pSX or the actual Playstation can do by texture filtering, smoothing sprites, etc.
