what i want to know is if you already have the game but it don't play no more can you take the games off of here download them extract like normal like they work with the emulator and just take the files and put on cd an play them on a ps one or ps two system and play them just like normal and save them to memory card just like you bought it from the store

Yes I believe you can but I'm not sure how to do it. I think David knows how. My guess is just write it to a disc but not sure what kind of disc lol.

You can burn the PSX iso's to any CD and play them on a playstation but you need a modded playstation to play them or a way to softmod your playstation. There are also disc swapping techniques out there, just google them, I don't know any on the top of my head.

Playstations are made to detect and NOT play burned disks. So you have to modify "mod" them in order to do so.

Disk swapping, I believe, is something you can do if you have a damaged disk and a burned copy of that same disk. I believe it involves using the original to trick the playstation into playing the burned one. I dont know for sure though.

is there a way to just download the files off the internet and extrack them and put them on a cd using image burn and run the files and play the game that way

Nope. Unless you bought the equipment to modify your playstation, otherwise the answer is no.

what do you need to modify the playstation and how do you do it?

Just look up on google "Playstation mod chips". They cost money, probably around $50 and you have to install them into your playstation yourself, can be risky.

Best bet is just playing the games on the PC. Dreamcast games work pretty well though, most of the games will play without any modifications to your Dreamcast console.

that's my next question can you take the snes games and stuff and play them on your playstation console if you put them on a cd or the dreamcast on the playstation

You can do that with Dreamcast I know for sure. There are actually special dreamcast emulators which you burn to a disc with the roms that you want to play with it. You can find out more here

is there a way to take your ps1 game or ps2 games and put them in your computer cd drive and extract them and stuff like the others are to download and play them with the emulators and put on the site and stuff for upload

Im not sure what the specific program is or if you need a special drive or anything, but as far as I know it is just like ripping any normal CD/DVD.

Dont quote me though, I dont know for sure...

there has to be a way to take the game files off the cd and extract it some how into parts for the internet just like the psone files but how

would you be able to burn snes roms to a disc and play it on a xbox 360 if dreamcast is not available?

You can rip any PS1 or PS@ file into an ISO. However not all ISO ripping software can do so because some of the discs are copy protected and some of the programs (mainly the free ones) don't let you rip a copy protected CD. (This is to keep themselves out of costly legal battles)

For PS1 games this isn't much of an issue anymore and most generic ISO software can rip a 100% copy of a PS1 game.
PS2 games are usually on some kind of DVD disk and can be much harder to rip.

However there are software developers who have already won these battles and let you rip any CD to an Exact ISO. The most popular and one you have probably heard of is Nero. However Nero can be expensive (Assuming you buy it and don't download a cracked trial version off bittorrent or ares something noone here would ever do )

Another great one is Alchol 120%. This is great ISO making software and has preconfigured settings for both PS1 and PS2 disks, making ripping them very, very easy. (Agian this is not free) But if you are interested there is a full 30 day trial version available from their website.

In the past I have used this(Alchol 120%) to rip my own PS1 and PS2 games for back-up/emulation reason and it never failed.

There are many programs that can do what alchol does so just google it, but I recomend checking out Nero, Alchol, or even Clone-CD.

Can I just extract the files, download an emulator for the psp and then play the games on the psp???
