How to Run ePSXe With GameShark

ePSXe allows you to emulate PlayStation games on your computer. If you have the emulator and game disc, you can play the game on your computer. Another feature of the ePSXe emulator is GameShark cheat support used to tweak the game's settings to your liking. However, in order to run GameShark codes in a PlayStation game, you'll need a plugin.
