this is why sometimes I give up replying to these kinds of replies, a lot of people too lazy to do homework

That's not confirmed yet right?

Wish I could really happen

but those for PSN only right...DLC PS2 games..zzz

i'm hoping for a standalone offline PS2 software emulation running on PS3 system

They patented it already.

as for the market for ps2 games on PSN, I think it will b e a blast. MGS2, 3 GT3,4 FFX, FFXII etc, all big names. even
last month's top PSN download was FF7 , refer to that free biweekly video in PSN by chritina lee. I know most of the people
will say I have a ps2, I will play my ps2 games on PSN, but remember, Nintendo has been doing the same thing and they are successful with it.

sure people will say dont compare sony games with nintendo bla bla bla, but remember, ps2 games rock. as simple as that. thats why they won last gen.

and lets not forget PS3 uses standard laptop sata HDD which is dirt cheap. and a lot of us dont want to wrestle with dead lens etc. hell, I even bought several PSOne games on PSN.

unless it's a PS2 game download from PSN, i still think people with NTSC J PS3 (Asian set) still screwed as the region lock mechanism is based on the Blu-ray drive.

unless Sony is willing to unlock it which will happen....... when the hell freeze over

The PS3's time to own will come. 360 sales are slowing down, like it or not.

Also, Sony might have cut out BC, but if you look at it, PS3 used to be $600, now its $300, they then cut PS2 price to $99. So instead of buying a BC PS3, you can now buy a PS3 and PS2 and keep $100.

(All currencies in USD)

this is why I prefer to discuss things like this who has actually EXPERIENCED the real deal.

Dem need to buy games again which i already own on the PS2,can play directly from the disc huh? If need to download from PSN to play id say its a rip off.

Well, seeing as Sony's patent is for PS2 emulation, playing games straight from the disc should be possible.

one question, are all your PS2 games original? mine aren't.

Good question, wrong country.

I wonder why no one said anything about PS1 games being a rip-off then.....

and i think i should repeat this again.

technically it's possible, in reality....until hell freeze over.

PS1 & PS2 already give a great overview about Sony and their Region policies on game disc.

you can even see this in asian PSN....majority PS1 classic in japanese. since when japanese is malaysia N-th official language? all of this because all the asian region fall into NTSC J disc region

well..i got some

the ratio is 1:50

sorry i play FUNSTATION only.. i donno about PS3 and Xbox360.. ... and 1 Mil game in 1 = podewin!!!

good yus, now please put all of your ps3 game in abox, i will collect them later, since you are so busy with your funstation 3

aiya.. just buy a used modded PS2 set to play PS2 game lah, 99% PS2 games are meant for offline play anyway

can say i have collected quite an ammount of ori ps2 games

aside from MGS2,3, GT3,4, Monster Hunter, Eyetoy, FF10..all my other games are not. So will I buy another copy on PSN? Yes I will. I bought RE2, MGS1 from PSN, so no questions there. and did you know FF7 is the highest selling PSN game last month? that proves that some moaners that said they are not going to buy the game twice are just plain ridiculous. Bottom line, if Sony starts welling PS2 games on PSN, I'd buy them. Its not like they are forcing you to buy it. And PS3's HDD is dirt cheap.

most of the buyer still prefer digital download as they want to keep the existing disc as collector item. if the disc broken/damage..that it, you screwed for sure . but if the downloadable version accidentally deleted, just re-download it again. it's not like you need to apply 300mb patch to play the PS1 game

i only have few PS1 game like Chrono Cross, but if Square Enix rereleasing it on PSN, i'll gladly buy it.

you know what would be overkill? Front Mission 3 in English (Japan already a go) and Front Mission 4 in PSN.
