playstation psx emulator on mac osx
playstation psx emulator on a mac
An emulator is a chunk of software made to simulate the instruction set and behaviour (the architecture) of a microprocessor in an environment where that microprocessor isnt available (yay! I remembered something from my electronics degree!) that means that you can run software designed for one architecture on another architecture using the emulator.
playstation (PSX) emulators for mac
there are a couple of playstation emulators available for the mac:
pcsx-Reloaded is the one I use.
is the best – it has the most options and seems to be the one that doesnt crash!
there are a few things you need:
- psx bios files [google link, so im not actually linking to them =]
- playstation games (I still have a few of these in my drawer)
- a gamepad (I have a ps2 pad and a usb adaptor, you could use the bluetooth ps3 pad and a driver for it or even an iphone or an ipod touch as a controller for your psx)
