>Can we stop using modchips and burning games and use PSIO exclusively?

>He doesn't know about the disc-swap trick

give this game a try, it's very good.

I don't have a PSIO and have heard mixed things about them. I'll stick with a PS2 for playing PS1 games.

I play psx on my vita

But the games look so awful its hard to nostalgia over them

Seriously the good games like FF9 need HD remakes

What about Silent Hill?

>>He doesn't know about the disc-swap trick

I know about it. Modchips are just more convenient.

>I play the games on a screen they weren't intended for without scanlines

>they look awful

No shit.

>somebody else would have to do it.

that's the the problem we had with the last silent hill remakes, just play it huddled in front of a CRT on a PS1 or PS2 like we all did

>>14118605

Honestly, i have no idea what are you talking about, i am playing the Resident Evil and Crash games on the vita and they still look pretty good to me.

Different story when you play them on a huge HD TV for the reason this anon said >>14118627

>I'd be good for a Silent Hill remake, but somebody else would have to do it

Team Siren (which is composed by SH creator and some former team silent guys) should make it, "Siren: blood curse" felt more Silent Hill than all those western garbage titles with the SH title on them.

PS2 is better.

I generally use a PS2 for mine, but if you go that route, be aware you might want to get a handful of memory cards. From what I remember PS1 cards are like 1mb/15 save slots each, so if you're going to be playing a lot of games you'll either need more than one or be willing to delete shit. On a related note, some PS1 games are noted as having incompatibility with certain PS2 models. So just be aware of what model you have and what you want to play with it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PlayStation_games_incompatible_with_PlayStation_2

Wikipedia also seems to have purged their article on PS1 and PS2 incompatibilities with backwards compatible PS3 models for whatever reason, though a backup can still be found on "ipfs", whatever that is.

>you might want to get a handful of memory cards

Or you could get just 1 PS1 memory card and get a PS2 memory card since you can transfer PS1 saves to the much larger PS2 card using it as a bank of saves.

Is there a way to play PS1 backups on a PS2 without a mod chip?

Disc swap works just fine if you have the right tools.
