Seems like its functionality is severely crippled and it doesn't look to be coded very well - but the fact that it's coded at all is quite impressive. However, I believe the person responsible is incorrect when they say: EMULATION IS NOT A CRIME, EMULATION SUPPORTS COMPANIES! TRY EMU - BUY CONSOLE! Yeah, right. "Murder is not a crime! It supports gun companies!" I guess Sony will have hestitation in crushing those sites which have BIOS binaries on them (like they did with the Oasis sites). I wouldn't say this PSE has got much life in it; You'd need some really good hardware docs to make a good emulator - Hey, maybe that's why Sony are so cagey about releasing details to us. :O) I'm sure all Sony would have to do in the next PSX is include some sort of built-in dongle (oxymoron) like you get with expensive apps.
