PSX games

i just want to ask what is a psx game? and where can u play it?? on psp? how can u make it work?? thanks^_^

 

PSX is the name given to the original playstation. Before the PS2 was released.

PSX games are played on the PSX. The Playstation 1. They can also be played on the PS2, PS3, and PSP, because all those systems were built with backwards compatibility.

 

You need to convert it to eboot. It's Playstation.

 

wow... so psx games can be played on PSP. Does the games occupy the same amount of space?
and how do we convert it exactly?

 

popgui or PSX2PSP are both good converters. Depending on the compression settings a EBOOT is usually a bit smaller than the PSX ISO.

 

Can we convert PC and PS2 games to PSP too?

--------------------------------------------------------------
so that i dont double post...

i found this http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/524060 and its a brief guide of converting PSX bin to PSP compatible. It used the game "Chrono Cross" as an example.

QUESTIONs:

1. Is this guide applicable to the PSP console or to the emulator?

2. Ive never done converting before so, how does a 2 CD game works?

Given that lets say you finished disc 1 and you need to "insert" disc 2?

 

are psx games for fat psps only?? right??

 

PC and PS2, no way, although there is a DOS emulator which played some of the reall old school dos games, extremely hard to set up though.

There is a thread in our tutorials section on converting PSX to PSP if I remember correctly.

And no PSX games work fine (if not better) on the psp slim as well.

 

i tried, and i failed. I tried again and I failed again. I tried a third time, and I failed a third time. *sigh*
Can someone spoonfeed me on this? Im having a hard time trying to use some PSX games.

a few questions:
1. Can you use the games that you can get download here in romulation and convert it to eboot?
2. Do you need to mod your PSP to read the games?
3. Do you need to make the icons,descriptions, wallpapers , animation of the psx game before you can play it?

I used PSX2PSP and Ice Tea, made no luck.

PSX2PSP wont work, it says

"Cannot open C:/Documents and Settings/Server/Desktop/PSX2PSP v 1.4.2/Files/BASE.PBP"

Im trying the game "Hoshigami" by the way.

 

wow?! im using psp slim 2000, and play final fantasy VII/IX, harvest moon, ToD II, Digimon battle card, Crash Bandicoot, Klonoa, Chocobo Racing, Chocobo Dungeon 2 and many moreeee....
its work very very FINE..

im using 'Iso Maker' and 'Ice Tea' to convert them

 

i want to play marvel vs. capcom in my psp slim but i dunno how to do it! can someone teach me how to make a psx game be changed into an iso file?

 

1st do you have the CD??
2nd download 'Iso Maker' and 'Ice Tea' to convert them
3rd im forget where i download the iso maker, but you can use the link from XD9999 (http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/524060)

 

Yes you can use romulations PSX isos
Yes your PSP needs to have custom firmware
No you dont need to have icons ect to play.

As for the base file I think I posted a link to my base.pbp in the tutorials section under the PSX2PSP tutorial. If not ill try and find it again.

 

actually my psp have custom firmware 5.00 i think... haha!! but i made an attempt! i put the marvel vs. capcom i downloaded (no i don't have a cd) into my psp folder in memory stick and put it to the game folder inside the psp folder... then! it actually worked!! dunno wat happen but my psp can play psx games without doing anything!! or maybe it's because of something but i dunno!! the bad thing is when i play the psx game it is not using the full screen in my psp.. T_T it's a bit smaller.. does anyone know how to make the psx game use the full screen of the psp?

 

uhm..where do i get the "customized firmware"? and how do i check it?

 

CFW PSP cans run PSX games that have been converted to EBOOT.PBP. To make it full screen press the home key in game and change the screen size.

 

ohhh... i see... thanks for the help!

 

CFW PSP - is this a software?. Does this mean i only need a software and not a hardware?

 

^ you need a special battery and a magic memory stick, check the PSP FAQ in the tutorials section.

 

ok..thanks
