weird files

[Guest]

I downloaded a game off of a website onto my hard drive. inside the game folder there are 2 different files. the first one is a bin file. the second one is a cue file. when i click on them, it asks me what program i want to use to open the file. do i need to have a ceratin kind of program to extract the files or something? any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, Shawn.

Hi Shawn,

Sounds like you need an emulator. Those types of files are usually run
within an emulator. Recheck the web site's instructions.

Shawn, your question was answered in the other thread you started for the
same problem.

Go here and read all about bin and cue files and what to do with them.
