Started up a game real quick with the PSN version, and it's nowhere near as bad as people made it out to be.  I remember playing it back on the PSX, and the gameplay and story are just as good as I imagined it.  The graphics are not that horrid.  Blocky, yes.  But still worth playing, IMO.

Resident Evil, on the other hand......  hey look!  The Dual Shock version lets you use the analog stick and vibration!  The intro sequence is classic, lol.  PS1 on PS3 is a win for nostalgia.

Remember to watch I Survived A Japanese Game Show this week.  It starts Weds at 9pm on ABC.  I need to spread the word, so it doesn't get cancelled.  I love the show, but feel like it's not going to last too long.  Let's hope it does!  The best parts are the rewards/punishments.  It's nostalgia for me, since it seems like I've actually done most of those things in real life!  Honestly, it presents a decent view of very specific things in Japan - relative to the shit that's filtered through the TV, at least.  And the reactions of the American contestants are usually quite realistic and not a dumb response like "that's weird, I'm not doing it."  The contestants last year actually gave a damn, which really made it enjoyable.
