What's the reason? Did I miss something?

Fixed.

I agree with Gnizmo assuming there will be an emulator is just getting your hopes up if anyone read the op correctly and title is misleading.

actually it says in the first paragraph. sony wants to release all ps2 titles on the ps3

Opinion? Uh, no. It is the situation that is being reported. Allow me to quote for you: "[UPDATE] - Another exciting titbit is that SEGA could provide Sony with Dreamcast titles for the PS3." and "Whether this will come as a case by case basis, like the God of War remastering, or that Sony is creating a universal emulator for all PS3 models is unknown. We'd personally expect the former, since Grand Theft Auto Vice City is a specific title mentioned."

So, again, I am being realistic. This isn't an opinion. This is the facts as they are stated by the original source. I am not getting bent out of shape either. I am attempting to inform people on what they can reasonably expect so they aren't disapointed later.

Also, why do you assume I don't care for what is going on here? I posted so it obviously has som significance to me. I would appreciate it if you actually dealt with me in an honest and upfront fashion. Trying to discredit, and dismiss me while avoiding anything of substance makes talking to you pointless. So, please, address what is acually on the table.

^people only read what they want reality to be....

In defense of it, that is apparently the name of the article on gamezine. I skipped past it until I went quote digging, but you can hardly blame Spartan for it. I would personally have renamed it, but it does fall into a weird grey area.

It looks like you didn't read the article.  It clearly states:  "Sony wants to release all PS2 games on the PlayStation 3".  This directly contradicts your statment above.

While its cool. and welcomed by me. Its hard to say that this really matters in the larger sense of it all.

If this had been announced and done at launch = huge. Now, its just too hard to differentiate and make it a huge selling point with most consumers.

If sega started making the dreamcast to be sold per order online would it be huge? No. Sony already has a ps2 on the market, is it huge, no.

Its cool for a small group of consumers, but the scale and massiveness of this news just isnt there, imo, to the larger general consumer.

The reason Sony broke huge ground with the PSX and PS2 and why nintendo did so with NES, SNES, Wii is by offering a console with games people were excited about for the systems.

Trying to make one product all products so to speak, especially this late in the life cycle ust wont have an impact like new exclusive software that people can get excited about for the system to spark sales.

I am not saying getting specific titles added is a bad thing. Hell, it is a great thing. I love that about the PSN, XBLA, and VC/Wii Ware already. However, people should celebrate what is on the table, and not what they would like it to be. What is on the table is different from what is being celebrated.

@whatever
I make logical leaps sometimes without explaining it. I did skim over one important aspect, but not in the way you seem to be implying. They are talking about selling the games. Quote: "SCEA wants to sell all PS2 titles on PSN." This directly implies it is adding titles to the PSN rather than adding an emulator. That is, it will work the same way PSN, XBLA, VC/Wii Ware work now rather than the way PS1, (some) Xbox, and GC titles work. I missed the reference to GTA though as I noticed the God of War example first. So they are working with third parties, but it is definitly being sold as a title by title affair.
