Default Classic Tomb Raider on PSN

I'm a BIG fan of the original Tomb Raider games on the PC (i.e. Tomb Raider 1, 2 & 3). I just noticed yesterday that PSN has these classics available for download.

Has anyone downloaded and played these? Are the graphics upgraded at all, or are they pretty much just ports of the original games?

I believe they are ports of the ps1 games. You can also play them on your psp if you have one.

I would go for the Tomb Raider Anniversary. It's PS2 but they are redone and look great in comparison.

While Tomb Raider Anniversary obviously has better graphics, it omits some of the original game's best moments and I see it as being inferior.
