Vids of PS1 games on OE-B! *updated*

Steve-O (probably not the one from “Jackass”) let us know of a clip he put up on YouTube. If there’s one thing Dark_Alex‘s OE-B can definitely do, it’s bring some decidedly dead videogame characters back to life.

Duke Nukem is a case in point. You could have raised a puppy from birth to death in the time it’s taken for Duke Nukem Forever to see the light of day, and it’s still not here. For all intents and purposes, the pretty alien babes he’s been trying to save are now old and decrepit, and his guns fire rust instead of bullets.

Here’s a video showing Steve-O playing the PS1 version of Duke Nukem: Time to Kill on his PSP. The video is kind of spotty due to the use of a camera phone, but there’s enough detail to show that it really is the Duke blasting away on your handheld.

How can we be sure? He ends up dead as a doorknob at the end of the video, kinda like the rest of the franchise.


Update: PSPMeep sent us another tip with a video of him playing Crash Bandicoot#@%!1314#@%! using the OE-B firmware. It doesn’t feel like it’s running at full speed, but that just may be a trick of the camera.

Now that we have two videos of PS1 games running on Dark_Alex’s homebrew, feel free to send us a tip with your own videos. Posting a link on the comments here might also grab our attention, but the funny little hamsters at the YouTube page kinda mess with how the videos look.

In any case, if you send more, maybe we can come up with an eventual mini-library of games that work with OE-B.
