Default Sony Playstation 3 Thread

For those worried about Playstation 3 Backwards Compatibility you can rest at ease you see

The Playstation 3 is comming with an internet browser which means that new applications, utilites etc can be made and availible for download on your PS3 by Playstation 3 Browser compatible websites that can be made by some clever people out there.

This is what Sony said about p********** Emulation on the Pc they said it could not be done. It happend since someone wrote the program to do it years back and the pc did not have any access to certain chips that the p********** One had.

Give it time folks someone will work out how to program an emulator and compensate for the loss of PS2 hardware thus get the PS3's hardware to load PS2 games on it. In fact id dare say someone will be doing reverse enginering when the PS3 hits and will soon teach the PS3 how to boot PS2 games using its next gen hardware. I know Sony are already doing this but for your old games that wont play the option of downloading and installing a fully working independant secondary emulator would solve that little problem.

There are people out there quite capable of doing this , look at the guy who made bleem for example

Its like playing mega drive games on the PS2 they needed hardware only found on the mega drive yet they have got the PS2 to play them. Once the PS3s internet browser gets working and new updates are made this will quickly become a reality and will ensure endless possibilities.

Now not to be a sony fanboy by all acounts but im quite impressed with its features. Internet acess multimedia functionality plus games like Tekken 6 MGS4 Gran Turismo Vision whos going to say no.

Have a look at the video showing what the machine has built into it. Quite worth while watching.
