This is one of the reasons why i dont understand why the PS4 doesnt have backwards compatibility with the PS3. Certainly Sony has a team of programmers that can create an emulator for PS3 games... Its the way Micosoft did  with the Xbox/X360 aswell.

It's not possible to emulate the PS3 - not with a PS4 and not with a "real" gaming-rig which costs >1000$. You'd need way too much power.

I thought the PS4 was supposed to be super duper powerful. :P

You would need a console many times more powerful than a PS4 to emulate a PS3/Xbox 360, nothing exists or will exisit - even in terms of high end PC processors for at least 5 years+ to do that.
