Welcome to the forum!

You simply copy them over from /dev_hdd0/game/ and place them in the same folder. If you don't a PS3 with CFW, then you'll need to find a Blu-Ray drive that's capable of reading it. (there's very few that can read PS3 discs)

Please also read the newcomer's guide and see the list of playable games.
If you're having any problems, please also read how to report issues and when reporting statuses of games or are having problems please read the submission guidelines.

Please keep in mind that piracy is not allowed and asking help with piracy, requesting pirated firmware files or games may result in a permanent suspension.

Sounds about usual. You won't be able to LLE cellGcm, as it interfaces directly with the hardware.

So does that mean this game is unplayable right now? Strange, its so old.

Not sure why you'd think that the age of the game would matter.
As mentioned before, read the newcomer's guide and see the list of playable games.
For all games that I can think of, you're better off playing on a real PS3. Playing them on an emulator currently is just more of a hassle.
