PS3 would be virtually impossible without additional hardware though. It would probably take an extra $60ish in BOM cost to do so at present (no need to duplicate ODD/HDD, but you'd definitely need the CPU, along with considerations for ram timing, and almost certainly the GPU as well considering how to-the-metal they coded to the Nvidia arch). That's not counting the huge expenses in running a new SKU. Basically that online streaming variant is the best we will ever see other than remasters. Best case : keep a PS3 around. As for the probability of them releasing PS1/PS2 mode for PS4, it would be awesome and super doable, but I'm not going to hold my breath. I'd put odds at less than 50/50. Ah well, if you have a USB 360 pad and a PC, you can get hardcore awesome PS1/PS2 emulation already. Just run it, plop your disc in the drive, and away you go. |
Fuck the 360 Controller, I use my DualShock 4 with custom light bar colours =D
