How to Burn PS1 Backup for PS3

The first-generation PlayStation (aka PSX1) played CD-based video game disks. You can burn a backup copy of a PS1 game disk using a computer and a disk copy program. There are a number of such programs available that are free to use or offer free trials. All the programs function in a similar fashion, so there is no real learning curve to using them.

Things You'll Need

  • Blank recordable CD-R disk, 16X speed (available at computer stores, hobby stores and drugstores)
