ePSXe is a plugin-based PlayStation emulator, though it comes with internal plugins for everything in addition to being able to use the same plugins as other emulators. It supports multiple CD-ROM formats (.bin/.cue, multi-bin/cue, .mdf/.mds, .ccd/.bin/.sub, .pbp, etc), including sub-channel support and PPF patching on the fly. Multi-tap up to 8 players are supported. | ePSXe is a plugin-based PlayStation emulator, though it comes with internal plugins for everything in addition to being able to use the same plugins as other emulators.

Review[edit]
ePSXe is a plugin-based PlayStation emulator, though it comes with internal plugins for everything in addition to being able to use the same plugins as other emulators. It supports multiple CD-ROM formats (.bin/.cue, multi-bin/cue, .mdf/.mds, .ccd/.bin/.sub, .pbp, etc), including sub-channel support and PPF patching on the fly. Multi-tap up to 8 players are supported.
There are versions for Windows, Linux, and Android.
A real PlayStation BIOS is recommended but not required. ePSXe can run games without an official PS1 BIOS via HLE, but compatibility will be lower and memory card support limited. Compared to other emulators such as the PlayStation core for Mednafen, it has poor accuracy to the original hardware.
VERY IMPORTANT: Save states done with official PS1 BIOSes are NOT compatible with save states done with ePSXe HLE BIOS (Besides it uses a different namespace).
Netplay[edit]
ePSXe uses Kaillera clients.
