    You need a PC and the latest build of 7z.

    The main sites PSP shares are the original scene releases, they are in a single archive to save hassle.

    extract the folder contained, enter the folder, open the first part, extract the iso.
    THE BEST METHOD to run PSX games (and everything else for that matter) is via Retroarch - http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/
    If you have any questions on how to set it up on Windows please feel free to ask, its very easy.

    Just use one of the many android ports of 7-zip to extract those with

    A PC is not required though it is preferable as you do need at least 3x the space of the original archive to extract it fully (chances are you will need more space depending on how well it was compressed to start with) also it is much easier to do via PC

    extraction process is as above though extract the downloaded archive then open the folder that creates find the first part of the set of archives, (the first part if all the files are numbered would be the first numbered file be that *.000 or *.001 and other variations, but it is done like *.r00 ect ect with a *.rar aswell as the numbered files the rar file is the first file) anyway that will finally output a iso or cso in some cases (cso files are iso files that can be directly used but also use compression)
