While ROMS are totally illegal and I’ve never ever used one…I can see the reason such functionality would be wanted on your Android devices. Famed iPhone hacker, ZodTTD, ended up giving in to a 2,000+ strong petition asking him to bring his talents to the Android platform. Thankfully he obliged. The PSX emulator he developed will require some beefy hardware (Nexus, overclocked Droid, EVO 4G, etc…) in order to keep everything nice and smooth. Something...

Now before you get all frothy at the mouth, turning over every little pebble for the download link, we must stress that this is an alpha — expect bugs. Thrown together by infamous Android dev, Cyanogenmod and the many talented folks over at XDA, G1/Magic owners can finally relish in the Froyo limelight.

Of course, if the developers and publishers of the original titles would actually embrace the modern age, this would all be a moot issue. But alas, modern copyright/IP law has failed massively in keeping up with technology. But that’s a discussion for another...

Running a modern Crysis-like game at 1920 x 1200 is no doubt a thrill if you have the required hardware to do so. But for all the eye candy that bombards gamers today, sometimes a “simpler life” is being sought out. The good ‘ol days of gaming with graphics measured in bits instead of MHz or RAM allotment cater as some would call it, to a more “real” or enjoyable sense of gaming. Getting this classic fix in the modern age has been made...
