Virtual Game Station, on the other hand, is the first commercial PlayStation emulator. At best, however, they work with only a handful of games and audio is rarely supported. There are several web sites dedicated to them, with free program downloads. PlayStation emulators in themselves are nothing new. A VGS PlayStation emulator for PCs would surely follow. If the idea takes off - and Sony may not be too pleased if it does - it is almost certain there will be a version suitable for PlayStation games available in Ireland.
