Nice sticky!
Just to add that for pcsx and pcsx2, for better performance/stability (and to be able to load most of the games) you need ps1 and ps2 "bios" plus plugins respectively.

Hi Agung/MV,

I also recommend that people install the package "mono-complete" if it is anything to do with gaming as it brings in "Net Framework" support for Linux with it. I don't know if PS1 and 2 needs Net Framework, but it can't hurt!!.

Regards Wolfman :D
