Emulators

I'm curious. What EXACTLY is illegal on emulators? o_O For exmaple, ePSXe need BIOS, but the only way how to get it llegal is get it from real Playstation, which means you need own it. Same with PCSX2. What on Earth is illegal on that?!

Re: Emulators

The only problem we have with emulators here is the possibility that people may ask for downloads of the games that they have not purchased, thus since they do not own the game they cannot legally play it.

There is nothing wrong with using an emulator with a game that you legally purchased.

Re: Emulators

I see. Than why we can not talk about emulators? I mean, if anybody want to play games on it, but know how it works, why fro example I can't help? And if it is that big problem, why don't put link to some emu site, like {removed}? Everybody will be happy: people will get their answers and nobody will talk about them here. Simple, isn't it? smile

Re: Emulators

Unfortunately, you are downloading copyrighted BIOS files illegally.

Yes, you can dump the BIOS from the real PS/PS2 but I'm not going to details how to dump it. Too hard for me. >_<

Re: Emulators

To avoid any legal complications, we simply do not allow any discussion of emulators on this forum, Period.

If you would like to talk about emulators, I'm sure there are some good emu forums out there.
