BHR-3 said: this has been known since 07 when Eu ps3 played disk ps2 games w/o HW emulation why is in not in the newer models my quess so sony can get easy $$ on psn from ps2 classics much like theyve done from ps home |
EU 60GB BC PS3s still have the original GPU or CPU (it's missing one of them but has the other). US BC consoles have both (CPU + GPU of the PS2)
Slims etc don't have either.
It's not been working since '07 - This is a new thing since Sony added a proper fully working software emulator that PS2 classics use that makes no use of any legacy hardware at all...
Hence running on slims :)
