You can, however, download PSX emulators for the PC to play Playstation games on your PC (if the PC is fast enough).

The game would need to be ported to the PSX processor, which would require the source code (owned by the company that made the game) and a lot of hacking by the company.

Even if it was ported/emulated to the PSX, the PSX is slow compared to most recent computers and has a _very_ limited amount of memory (compare Quake 2 PC vs PSX).
