ePSXe is a great playstation emulator that can run in OpenGL. It has support for a large number of games and has a lot of great features.
ePSXe is available through portage, although the portage version is a release behind the current (final) Windows version, 1.7.0. Surprisingly, ePSXe also runs better in wine than it does natively, taking up far less CPU cycles while delivering better performance.
Download ePSXe from the epsxe home page and extract it to .wine/drive_c/Program Files/epsxe/.
To run epsxe, you'll need a copy of zlib1.dll. You already have zlib installed on your Gentoo system, but not in this format. :) You will probably also need to rename the dll appropriately after you extract it.
You'll need a copy of the PSX BIOS in the bios folder in order to run epsxe. While you're at it, you'll also need a copy of Pete's PSX GPU plugin in your plugins directory.
