My PS3 is backwards compatible and I got every PS2 game I want already. Good for those PS Slim owners who want something new and cheap to play, though.

  •     Not all games are supported, shadow of memories & Hitman 2 are examples of games that just didn't work and they don't plan to try and get them to work. They also seem to be covering a huge list of games even fairly unknown games like The Seed: warzone.
  •     No button remapping options, like PS1 emulation, for now.
  •     No trophies or anything along those lines.


Apart from that everything should be what people are expecting. There doesn't seem to be any bells and whistles on it, it's straight up PS2 emulation.

So it's just like PS1 Classics.  It seems they've gotten their ps2 software emulator functional enough to support a decent number of titles, but not functional enough to support most titles or release it to the public (wouldn't want to advertise ps2 BC that works on



Why is god hand is so popular?
I keep hearing it one of the best PS2 titles to come out and it's been a while.
Can anybody fill me in? What so magical about it?

It looks like it! I guess this is the end of the PS2 then maybe? Why buy the system anymore or the games when you can get them here.

What is Pub?

lol I had to look at OP again to understand what you meant by Pub.

Its money allotted by sony for creation of PSN games. For eg games like Journey but these games are sometimes made by third parties.

I don't think this is the Oct 5th trailer announcement thing, only because the trailer had a bunch of things in it from PS3 only games (Resistance, LBP, MGS4) and I don't see how that fits with PS2 content coming to PSN.

 

OT: Anyway I'll probably end up picking some of these up if the price is right.
