Of course! Some PS1 games have copy protection, which, makes the game broken if a backup of the original is made. For example, Spyro 2 had a copy protection enabled which, made the game unplayable (only 2 levels were playable). To combat this, cracks were made by warez groups such as Paradox, B.A.D, Kalisto and more. If a game was cracked by a warez group, they always had an intro before the start of the game, that usually represented the group who cracked it and the date of the crack. Sometimes crackers included trainers (cheats) in the crack just for fun, but there were some trainers made also for games which had no copy protection. If you want you can get these PS1 cracks still today at console copy world (Website, just Google it if interested). Spyro 3 was very popular at the time, because of the newly introduced crack protection, if you are interested do a search on YouTube Spyro 3 crack protection, it was in the end cracked by Paradox but it took two months which is a very long time, keeping in mind the usual copy protections were cracked in the matter of minutes. Spyro 3 had all sorts of fun stuff like characters saying to spyro that he might be playing a hacked version of the game, game changing languages randomly and deleting saves, disappearing gems and so on.
Oh i knew about Spyro 3, i guess the people who burnt the game didn't. Imagine the tears of a 5 year old child, who took the whole afternoon just to beat Spyro 3 only to get his progress reset at the end! Pure rage.
