Emulator Help..

After long pain of not being able to play certain games due to not being released in Europe, Ive started to try and get an Emu of it
Ive got to use the Macintosh Emulator due to my windows being smurfed
Ive got it but I can only play games that I have
How do you get games from the internet to your Emulator ( Im using PCSX for the Mac OSX ).
I cant find it on the web as they just come up to a the actually Emulator not the game ROM
Im a rock bottem n00b when it comes to Emulators btw
Thanks to whoever helps :D

Just get the SNES ROM of CT.

As for FFT, you don't get ROMs of PS1 games. You get ISOs, which are basically CDs contained as a single file. Depending on the game, these are usually large - minimum of 300mb, I'd say.

Your best bet for obtaining them is to hit up the torrent networks. I won't list any, you'll have to be self-sufficient at that. You can also get BIOS off of them.

None of this is legal, mind you, unless you actually own a Playstation and the game you're trying to download. Just so you know.

www.emuparadise.com
Theres like loadz more, but they all support Windows *crushes last piece of Mac Software *

But.........there actually hope, Can PAL AND NTSC game works on the same Emulator, say I put a NTSC Game into the drive and tried to play
My PAL games work on PCSX and I wanna know if NTSC games will work
Cause I could maybe Buy the NTSC games off eBay and play them on my Computor
Will it work ???

Macs aren't really designed for gaming, so it's not much of a surprise.

We got it originally for my Sisters course work, we had a Windows 2000 before, I have a G5 which is actually really powerful, like more than Windows
But you just cant do the stuff that Windows can
But what it does, it does very well
(SPOILER) Although All The Stuff I Want Is Not On There

You're missing the point of an emulator. It let's one system (the one you're using) emulate another system (one you don't have/can't use). All the games you download for emulators are games for the system you don't have. If they don't work in the emulator, then it's usually not the game at fault, it's the emulator you're using that has the problem. Either try another emulator, or work out how to configure the one you're using so it does work correctly.

EDIT: Also, yes, you can play both PAL and NTSC games on the same emulator, provided it's a decent emulator like ePSXe - dunno what the mac equivalent of that is though, or if it's as good :p
