Sony continues to taunt North American and European PS3 owners today by releasing a huge amount of PS1 titles for play on the PSP or PS3. Weighing in at a staggering 13 titles, this batch has a heavy emphasis on fighting games -- especially the King of Fighters series which has three new games alone! Here's the full list:
Guilty Gear
King of Fighters '95
King of Fighters '96
King of Fighters '97
Little Princess: Maru Oukoku no Ningyou Hime 2
Real Bout Garou Densetsu Special: Dominated Mind
Samurai Spirits: Kenkaku Yubinan Pack
Septentrion
Spectral Force 2
Spectral Tower
Suna no Embrace

Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Could anyone tell me how I'm able to watch/play DVD's, and PS1 & PS2 games in 1080p on my brand spanking new PS3 that I enjoy so much.
...Oh and yes my TV supports 1080p.
Thanks in advance.
"Sony continues to taunt North American and European PS3 owners"
OH PLEASE give me a break... taunt North American PS3 owners??? no! European users are the only one that are taunted... our store (EU, I'm from holland) has 10 times less content then the US-store :(
I agree with edwin - the EU ps store sucks (i'm in london). The US store gets atleast one game a week on their store, while we are lucky if we even get one in like 3 weeks! Last one was Q bert, which was out in the US store like 4 months prior to it's release here, and it sucks anyway. When is sony gonna learn that Eropean PS3 owners are just as important as owners that are in the US and Japan. More PS3's sold at the EU launch than at the US or Japan launch, so why on earth do we get treated so badly compared to US/Japan PS3 owners? I thought Phil Harrison was from the UK. So y dont he treat PS3 owners that are on the same continent as he grew up in? This stinks
do we think these releases are headed individually (i.e. SCEJ decides what and when to release in Japan, SCEA, and SCEE the same)? Or do we think there's some grand scheme as far as what to give to each region?
Sony needs more content on the UK ps store,am lucky if i vist the store once a week now,same old demos and trailers, its getting kind of boring now.If sony wants to keep up with the awesome Xbox live they need to get their asses in gear and fast,dont get me wrong its a good start but sony needs more demos more trailers just moreeeeeeeeee of everything to keep me interested,there lagging way behind xbox 360 and the wii,they need to stop dragging their heels and drop the price of the ps3,bring the PS store up to the standards of xbox live, then they just might be onto a winner,cause at the end of the day i love my ps3 and my awesome xbox 360,without these 2 juggernoughts in the industry we would be left with the Wii with yesterdays tech and gimicky features, and that my friends just will not do
