@oldgamesonly - oh, my gosh!!! I remember 40 Winks!!! I've only played the demo, but I remember it; it was fun from what I remember.
40 winks went way under the radar...and it was fun as hell

And yes, he is (usually) always right, and he is (almost) the sexiest gamer out there (not counting me) ;)
I demo'd Ghost in the Shell once and it played well....same for this cop game from EA (LAPD?)
Metal Gear Solid is good but very updated now (go for the GC version instead), the Crash games are fun (except the first...really dodgy controls there).
Final Fantasy IX is a must! That game is pure awesome sauce!
Destruction Derby 2 Intelligent Qube (this one is rather rare/expensive) Bushido Blade 2 (the first one is also excellent) And if you like the classics it's hard to go wrong with Namco Museum, the original and best Namco collections; if your machine is hacked you won't be able to play Strider 2 (unless it's a clever hack), but worth it for the awesome Namco Museum-R and Space Invaders the Original Game which were both Japanese exclusives Other classics comps abound if you like arcade goodness for games published by Williams, Midway, Atari, Nichibutsu and others.
Have you seen the Racketboy website? (No affiliiation beside occasionally reading their articles.) Focused on retrogaming, they do a pretty good job of outlining games you might want to check out.
Heart of Darkness by Eric Chahi, who also made Another World/Out of This World, which inspired Fumito Ueda, who made Ico and Shadow of the Colossus.
Oh my god. This game, totally. Heart of Darkness is incredible.
Also, chalk up another vote for Suikoden II. One of the best JRPG stories ever. In essence it chronicles how fate causes two close friends to end up leading the forces on either side of a war. Emotions run high and you can really feel a part of the game's events.
Vagrant Story is one game I haven't seen mention of in this thread. It's kind of like a predecessor to Final Fantasy XII, but makes no pretense about being a JRPG, or part of a flagship series. Much more technical and atmospheric than FFXII ever was, and the technology behind the game was generations ahead of its time.

Ah OK sorry - didn't realise that was the rules. To defend myself I thought asking for a PS Emulator would have been fine as I thought only asking for games here were frowned upon (especially since there have been commerically legal and available PS emulators). Since I already had the games and just wanted to play them on the PC (which is legal) I thought it'd be OK. But if those are the rules those are the rules and I'll leave it there.
Rayman 2: The Great Escape is a masterpiece. Its atmospheric worlds, gorgeous graphics and lovable and whymsical characters will keep you hooked. Unfortunately, the PS1 version is somewhat inferior to other versions of the game, particularly when you've got a PS2. In that case, you should pick up Rayman Revolution instead, which is the PS2 version of the game, and essentially a director's cut edition of The Great Escape. Either way, you're in for a treat.
