It just seems strange to me to make all of the remakes and then just release the original games too.

They aren't making all that many remakes though are they? yes, a few key franchises sure, but I could see a whole lot of pubs just copying and pasting their games to PSN for a really quick buck. Think PS1 games on PSN.

Sig thanks to Saber! :D

With all the HD remakes in the pipeline this would be stupid.

I doubt this would be coming to PSP or PS3 as well. If this was possible on PS3 they would have done it a long time ago. Or are they are that evil to remove backwards compatibility to resell their PS2 games again, but having waited a couple of years so that people would have forgotten that it was free in the first place.

It could be done, they just need to create an emulator. Much like the Xbox 360 has an original Xbox emulator. It ain't perfect, but it gets the job done and allows you to play a lot of great games. Porting a game requires a bigger investment than selling the original title digitally to be played via emulation.

Few developers are actually porting PS2 games to PS3. Allowing games to be played via emulation may open the flood gates to many great PS2 games to come to PSN.

Did anyone actually care to read the link? They say PS2 games are coming to PSP.

How do they intent on bringing PS2 games to PSP if not even the PS3 is able to emulate it's predecessor?

Also, the headline is misleading. It's suggesting that this is confirmed, when it's pure speculation yet.

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

If it ever happens, I would be one hell of a costumer, since I skipped that gen and there are at least 8 or 9 titles that I must play. Haven't bought MGS 4 for a reason.
