Anyone remember Sky Way Gamer?

Zyrxil · September 4th, 2001

Anyone remember the psx emulator Sky Way Gamer? It came out a long while ago, and I believe it was discovered to be a hack of VGS.
Well, I'm trying to find to the news post or wherever they first proved it was a hack, and possibly even how they proved it was a hack. Can anyone help?

Yeah, Yeah I remember that one.Was it a hack?God knows.I visited the official site and they describe it as "THE MOST POWERFUL PSX EMULATOR !!".Phew... the so called self praisers.

Btw anyone of u ever tried sky way gamer?I saw the screenshots and they look non 3d just like cvgs.I think there will be no takers for such an emulator with plugin based emulators showing good compatiblity and great 3d graphics.

Yeah,I saw that.So it really was a hack.I think they just changed the name and logo and just put in added attraction of net play in it.
