    Wouldn't it be as simple as an emulator program? google is your friend. As for performance, the gt 525m should do fine (depends heavily on things like resolution, speedhacks, and the demands of the actual game).
    Google is your friend (I think Psx2 is the usual)

    Yes, I have tried it. PCSX2 + motioninjoy to enable PS3 controller act as a PS2 controller makes my laptop a portable PS2 :D
    Every game I have played so far has been running pretty smoothly...60fps most of the time with slight reductions in fps sometimes but all in all, completely playable and enjoyable.
