Unless you are trying to the the ps3 game the ps2 and psp should be able to be emulated on literally any pc.
Hell psp runs fine on most android phones as well.
You literally have to be trying to not find a way to play these games if you say they aren't easy to play. Fuck legality if the copyright hold is sitting on these games for no fucking reason
I totally agree, but emulation still requires tons of unpaid work by enthusiasts. If/when Sony stops selling the PS3, they should turn over the source code and allow the community to make something really great. It's not like they make any money of used console and game sales.
Even the PS3 game can be played via an emulator. The tech is still evolving so you still need a fairly powerful computer but it is playable. For reference, I was able to test archiving various PS3 games on my now 11 year old gaming PC which was a medium-tier system at the time of the build.
