Hello my friend, today i will write something about how to playing PSx games on your Android. It's simple because you only need emulator. I have been tested FPse and psx4droid on my Galaxy Tab and here is the comparison:
-FPse : it's has a weakness on sound but for graphic for all game is okay
-psx4droid : it has sound performase that i can say almost real but on certain games sometimes the graphic not as smooth as FPse
But you must have Android version 2.2 or higher to use it
Here is the feature from FPse:
-High performance
-High compatibility
-High sound quality
-Real-time save states
-Audio track emulation (using .cue files)
-Force-feedback
-Dynamically loadable Overlay Pads
-Guncon emulation
-Analog Stick emulation (using touchscreen slide)
-Compatible with G-Sensor, Touchscreen and Hardware keys
-Supports .img, .iso, .bin, .cue, .nrg and .Z disc image formats
A few tips to improve your gameplay experience:
-in Landscape orientation DPAD and Main 4 buttons are activated, if you want to activate all others, go in menu/input/touchscreen and select others buttons.
-Create a default configuration by setting your desired options and then selecting “Default Config Save” in the System Menu.
-CALL, BACK, VOLUME UP/DOWN buttons can be assigned as PSone buttons but can be used is not assigned.
-Guncon emulation requires the A and B buttons to be mapped to Hardware keys. By default: L3 = A and R3 = B.
-SPUSync is required for proper sound quality in certain games such as MGS and FFVII.
-Frameskip set to 50 will avoid sound stuttering on load end device or with somes games that use much CPU.
And here is the features from psx4droid:
- Scaling Mode selection for different display modes
