I love my old modded PS1. You can't go wrong with free classics.

Why not emulate it, at that point? No fussing with CD-Rs.

Good point as well!
I have a modded PS1 so I didn't even think about emulation. I have tried out PS1 emulators on both Windows and Linux and they work pretty damn well. I just use my PS1 since I already have it and I am nostalgic for the PS1 days so using original hardware makes it that much more enjoyable for me.

I can understand pirating movies and tv shows since you can say it's almost the same as recording something on your tv. But pirating video games is just sad. But I guess if you're too incredibly broke, it's fine... But damn if you love the game ten bucks is an incredibly fair price. Just buy the damn thing...

It's more of a why bother to buy a port of an original when I can just download the original for free type of deal.
Having the original gives me far more freedom. I am not limited to running the damn thing on the console it was ported to but am able to run on it the original system, cell phone, tablet, other consoles, computer, and even the system it was ported to using emulation. Let me have all that for $10 and I will gladly fork over the cash.

If you game that much you need to see a therapist. Anyway PSPs are cheap and you can transfer games to and fro a PS3. And if you don't have a PS3 you chose the wrong next-gen console. Anyway what I was trying to get at if you like the game, support the people that made it.
If you like it buy it, simple as that.
I mean it's t-e-n dollars... People can be so incredibly stingy...
