Different Ps1 Emulators?

fatnhappy · August 19th, 2012, 01:14

Soo... it's been awhile since I've been into psx emulation and the last time I was, the only one I really knew about was epsxe. Now I'm back and I see there's a few things now. Xebra, pcsx-reloaded, pcsx, pSX, and PSXeven. No one would happen to be able to tell which ones are the best would they? Could really use the help, cause my ps3 just died on me and I'd really like to play through my some of my old ps1 games again.

pSX is a no-plugin emulator that it's easy to get running, native mode only.

Xebra is a heavier no-plugin emulator that it ain't so easy, but I think it's the most compatible of all. Also, native mode only for graphics and the high system requirements.

PCSX-Reloaded (use it instead of PCSX) is a plugin based emulator like ePSXe (+ input plugins) that is fairly compatible. Since it's plugin based, you can have some nice sound and video plugins.

I prefer non-native graphics so I usually switch around between PCSXr and the ePSXe's. Then I keep Xebra and pSX as a backup just in case.

Hmmm... thanks. How about AdriPSX? Supposedly it's fast and good with integrated graphics.

But it hasn't been updated in years and the compatibility isn't that great. ePSXe supports IGPs (integrated graphics) just fine.
