Comparisons

PSXfin is outdated and development stopped. It would be the best if it was actively developed. It has a lot of compatibility issues.

ePSXe is also out dated, and since it's closed source it gets only updates from the main devs. It gets a few minor ones every few years.

PCSX-R is actively developed and open source. >True widescreen hack >less bug prone, fewer glitches >Support for superior plugins, such as lilypad >etc

It's basicaly ePSXe, as it uses the same plugins, but more advanced and better. No reason to not use it.

Mednafen psx >After 0928 update basically every game seems to work in it >High compatibility (please tell me if a game can't owrk in it, honestly curious) >2.0 dualcore intel needed. >No plugins, native resolution only

So whether Mednafen or PCSX-R is best if up to personal preference.
