It's simply called the Playstation File System aka PFS. I don't think the PS2 is powerful enough for Amiga emulation btw. At best, it can emulate a good deal of the Neo Geo catalogue with a few minor issues.

Care to offer an extended ADF of it Denis ? I'd like to bring a surprise out to a friend. Believe it or not, he registered here to offer his help for a French translation of that very game!

Correct as per this video (which is why Xbox original was so highly rated for emulation and coin ops till the RPi took the lead):

Not at all. All I know about decrunching is the fancy color cycling while it's taking place.


Edit : Aaaah, it's not a localized version of Rocket Ranger you ordered, sorry for any misunderstanding.

Sherlock: The Riddle of the Crown Jewels. I'll add the scans to HOL this weekend. And I've only just noticed the HOL name for it has been wrong for the last 19 years or so...

3 rare? Amiga games (although calling them games may be pushing it a bit). They are railway signalman simulations by Ashley Greenup.

Thanks to Cody I now know there are quite a few of these simulations for various other platforms like the C64 and Spectrum. I don't think these were generally known to exist on the Amiga until now. (but please correct me if I'm wrong).
