There is no point installing a Windows emulator to play games on your PS3. The main problems you will strike are; PS3 Linux has no support for 3D acceleration, PS3 Linux only has access to 256 MB of RAM, the Cell processor and x86 are nothing like each other so you have to use emulation not virtualization. What does this all mean? It just doesn't work, and will not be worth your time. The best you can expect to do on a PS3 with Linux would be to get DOS box, MAME (old 2D games only), and some old school console emulators working. You will never get decent Windows support - EVER!
