i thought vita could already play ps3 games via remote play? i swear i've seen KZ3 running on vita...


Remote play can work, but currently only through hacking. What you can actually do is very limited

And this is a shame, they could possibly even re-re-sell me some games, and certainly something like the Jak Collection should be avaliable on Vita, it only just came out, and it wouldn't be that much of a challenge to port it to the PSVita given they have already "done the impossible" and got it onto PS3

Also, Squeenix say that they are going to release FF X HD for PS3 and Vita, so if that ever happens, hopefully that might start a trend

what do you mean only by hacking?  i thought this was an officially supported thing (at least for the psp).  i've never hacked my ps3 and there is some setting around this in my menu around this.  here's a terribly shot video of pixaljunk eden being played by a psp...are you telling me the psp had to be hacked to do this?!?!?

PixelJunk Eden is compatible with remote play, so you can play it on any PSP.

Now, a PS3 hack enables remote play for all games, allowing them to be played on PSP/Vita. Some were unplayable on PSP because it lacked buttons and a second analog stick, but now are fully playable on Vita by configuring the rear touchpad to emulate L2/L3, R2/R3.

But...PSV already has PS3 multiplats and will have remoteplay so...

Shame about the PS2 though.

Sony should work on an SNES emulator. Sales will be through the roof.



Pre-order limited edition Blue Slime Condoms

well i missed out on a lot of Game from the PS2 era and was planning on downloads about 100 when they where available (i like things digital) but i don't have time to play them at home so with this news I'm gutted. i don't care about PS3 game son Vita as i have a PS3 but the PS2 classics have annoyed me a lot.

i guess if someone does hack it il just have to jail brake it to play them, unless sony give me the option and want my money

PixelJunk Eden isn't the only one, there are a few other PSN games as well
