actually i dont have either, i was wonderin what wud be the better option al round, emulate ps1 version or buy (unreliable) pc version and try to make it work with the xp update patch which seems to work according to other forums, but not all the time, and when it doesnt there doesnt seem to be any rhyme or reason. basically wud the trouble id go to in setting up the emulator for a ps1 version be less than trying to get a notoriously twitchy pc game designed for windows 95 to actually work?
my pc specs are in my user profile mate.

my opinion is try to download an iso before you buy the game.
besides its free if you just download.

here's where i start learning stuff..
whats and ISO and what does it do?
when u say download the game are we talkng like a rom, or straight download from some location? like burning a disc for instance? and do u mean download the PC or PS1 version? guys seriously im clueless :wacko:

.ISO = Its like burning a cd but to your hard drive
so if you download FF7 as an Iso you get a file named FF7.ISO (or something similar, .ISO is the file extension)
This ISO file can then act as an acual CD after being mounted on a virtual drive (yes CD/DVD drives can be emulated also) ( OR it can be burned onto a CD-R and be played from the cd without the need to mount it on a virtual drive)
for using with a virtual drive you will need
daemon tools <-----google it
now that ISO can be loaded onto a virtual cd/dvd drive (daemon tools) and act as if you put a real cd/dvd in your drive (your computer wont know the difference) now you can play your game without the cd
its against the rules for us to give links to games/roms and shit like that so your on your when it comes to finding the .ISO
once you have the ISO or (the actual cd, whatever you want) then we'll
help you set it up
oh by the way I think he's talking about downloading the playstation game .ISO

yeah heres where you can get daemon tools. somtimes you won't need to emulate the cd with DT and you can mount the ISO on the ps1 emulator directly(worked with FF9).
