I would have thought it obvious something will be done to prevent playing through PS3 like that.


Will it even support 360/Wii games? I would have thought it be older gens games.

It'll only play games you can legally play on your PC. Essentially you are renting processing power on a server that plays videogames.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

It will work. If you are near enough one of their datacenters.

On the PS3 browser, I don't know.

I meant on the Linux PS3 browser ofcourse just with the Phat PS3s but I already corrected it because I read in the Faq it requires Win XP/Vista mac OS X.



This server has to be a super-computer to handle all this processing powers isn't it? Imagine a computer having to process 1000 Crysis gameplays at the same time?



I will admit I am not very knowledgeable about Linux, but couldn't someone run Wine does that even work on PS3?

It will be many computers together, each one serving one or a few customers at the same time.

You can Emulate on your PS3 just Win 98 (and play starcraft) WINE is not an emulator it translates just the code for Linux.



Ah thank you, I was always curious on how that worked.
