I set my ps1 up the other day just too have a play of some of my massive collection of PS1 games that i own, when i came a cross Road Rash.

As soon as i saw it i could remember how much fun i had playing it !
I put it on immedietly and started the fun all over again !
Its great.
Ok... The graphics are nowhere near the standards of say a PS3 but thats not the case...

That Game brought so much joy when i was playing it unlike some PS3 games that i have..

Motorstorm for instince was no where near as much fun as it and i like motorstorm alot !

I would love it if the producers of road rash would bring out a new one for the PS3 and Xbox 360.

How good would that be !

Have you any suggestions for a good old classic to be brought back ?
if so this is the place to make a mention...!

ah, road rash awesome game. The amount of time i would crash over the finish line was brilliant. It can be quite an excellent tactic at times as you smash into a sign post head on and fly accross the finish line, hopefully faster then the person on the bike.

If you've got custom firmware, just torrent them. Pretty much all of the PS1 games you can remember are available already formatted for PSP. You just need to stick them in the /GAME folder inside their own folder eg /GAME/SOULBLADE

Last firmware update on the PS3 lets you do it from the PS3 to PSP, or you can just get the latest custom firmware on your PSP and download the tool for ripping your PS1 CD to PC then PSP (or download ones that are already done!).

Speed Kings. That was it!

Good game, expect you can find it on budget somewhere.

There was something similar on PS2, Xbox and Gamecube. Burnout with bikes and a little bit of the kicking etc from Road Rash. Yellow packaging...can't remember the name. Quite a good game too.

Anyway, real question is: Why did you need to unpack the PS1 when your PS3 could have played the game and maybe improved the graphics a little. Ah, unless it was a copy. Those little action replay dongles and some blank CDs = endless PS1 games.

I just love playing the old PS1 stuff on my PSP. Just put Alien Trilogy on it, still looks fantastic on the PSP screen.
