How to Use a PSX Emulator

Emulators can be nifty tools if the hardware and software are up to par. While the PlayStation is an old video game console at this point, it was not until years after its prime when emulation of the console became feasible and worked well. Now, there are plenty of emulators available for the PSX and they all work exceptionally well.
