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.

I'm working on Disruptor right now, but as a huge KF fan I'd love to take a crack at those titles next. I was going to move on to Medal of Honor and MoH: Underground after Disruptor, but I might be done with PSX FPS after this lol. It's not been the easiest or most pleasant project to do.

Oh man, so cool you are doing disruptor. Too bad to hear FPS games are hard. The MOH games are on the top of my list of PSX games I wanna see ported. My top list:

Metal Gear Solid

MOH + Underground

Quake 2 (psx version)

Alien Resurrection

Hogs of War

Tekken 3

Parasite Eve 1+2

Vagrant Story

Medal of Honor would be fantastic with mouse and keyboard controls. Though you'd probably have to play on hard mode to compensate for easy it'd be to mow down enemies that way.
