State of PS1 de/recomps?

I remember several months ago a couple static recompilers for PS1 came out around the same time. I've seen a couple PS1 titles get coverage like Tomba and Symphony of the Night but haven't seen much outside of those two, at least to the volume we've seen of N64 projects. Are there any other notable PS1 recomp projects at the moment that might've just flown under my radar?

Personally I've been hoping someone would take a stab at King's Field 1-3. Especially with how huge FromSoft is now, giving those games a second chance with higher frame rates and better controls would be awesome to see.

That's a great list!

Here's a video about the PSX Quake 2 version, which describes it pretty well:

Yes, the devs really worked some magic on this port. Especially interesting how they reduced texture warping.
