use the unecm tools on that are under all the playstation game links (you just drag and drop the ecm file onto the program unecm). As for burning I'd suggest either using imgburn or alcohol 120. The extra files that come with the iso or bin of the game are a set of instructions for whatever burning program you use to be able to burn correctly.
If your using emulator than no you shouldn't have a problem with region specific as for console (PS2 or PSX - PS1) I'm not too sure on those.
The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again.
