SDLMESS (05-03-2009) (Multiple emus for PS3 Linux)

MESS is an acronym that stands for Multiple Emulator Super System. MESS will more or less faithfully reproduce computer and console systems on a PC. MESS emulates the hardware of the systems and sometimes utilizes ROM images to load programs and games. Therefore, these systems are NOT simulations, but the actual emulations of the hardware.

SDLMAME (05-03-2009) (Arcade emu for PS3 Linux)

MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator. When used in conjunction with an arcade game’s data files (ROMs), MAME will more or less faithfully reproduce that game on a PC. The ROM images that MAME utilizes are “dumped” from arcade games’ original circuit-board ROM chips. MAME becomes the “hardware” for the games, taking the place of their original CPUs and support chips. Therefore, these games are NOT simulations, but the actual, original games that appeared in arcades. MAME’s purpose is to preserve these decades of video-game history. As gaming technology continues to rush forward, MAME prevents these important “vintage” games from being lost and forgotten. This is achieved by documenting the hardware and how it functions, thanks to the talent of programmers from the MAME team and from other contributors. Being able to play the games is just a nice side-effect, which doesn’t happen all the time. MAME strives for emulating the games faithfully. NOTE: This version includes an unsupported patch that adds the ability to display games at their original (-nativeres) resolution in fullscreen mode. Users of this version are not eligible for support on the official forum.

ScummVM (01-09-2008) (PS3 Linux misc)

ScummVM is an implementation of the SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion) engine used in various Lucas Arts games such as Monkey Island and Day of the Tentacle. At this time ScummVM should be considered ALPHA software, as it’s still under heavy development. Be aware that while many games will work with few major bugs, crashes can happen. Also note that saved games can, and probably will, be incompatible between releases. Also ScummVM is capable of playing several non-SCUMM games.
