With backwards compatibility unceremoniously dropped from the PS3 with the introduction of the 40GB console, in the latest issue of EGM, Playstation Network director Eric Lempell admitted that there are "possibilities" that Sony will allow gamers to purchase and download PS2 titles via the PSN.
Take it to the sea and start the fishing. Take a look at the best fishing games you can play on the PS2 today.
The Nerd Stash: "Developed by Treyarch Studios, Call of Duty: Black Ops games are some of the best in the series in terms of gameplay, story, and -- of course -- Zombies."
Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.
And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.
I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.
With these hidden gems to add to your backlog, it’s time to give some bangers the shine they deserve.
Numbers 6-9 were some of my absolute favorite early gen PS3 games. I'm still bitter about Incognito and Japan Studio.
The white knight chronicles and infamous games really need to come to modern platforms. MAG I really miss...poor zipper. The ps3 was definitely a unique console despite it being the worst home console of PlayStation.
Make it happen Sony! But release good titles GoW and stuff.
...then there must be a way to play/emulate your current ps2 titles on your 40gb.
I have a 40gb and i would be pretty pissed if i have to pay for all those classics (that i have nicely stacked on the shelf) if i want enjoy them upscaled.
=( Hope they make it possible by a firmware update.
Sony Soldiers, you didn't honestly think I would disappoint you, right?
It's a shame the PIGGISH Nazisoft stole the idea from us, but try not to think about those SWINE!
MWAH-HA-HA-HA!!!
Didn't someone call this a few days ago with the larger hard drive PS3 sku rumors? If that is true then that means software emu is working. If that's the case then the smart thing for them to do is to offer the games on the PSN and the software to play it on the 40gb for people who own the discs. Of course, if the offerings are as paltry as they have been for the PS1 games, then it's probably better to just leave it alone and fix the stuff that's broken right now.
I remember when the PS2 came out the big plus for the system is that it had full BC. It was a big plus when Sony originally stated the PS3 would be 100% BC. It turned out to be false. The 360 tried to be BC, but instead used emulation which many shunned. I think they got to around 20 to 30% compatible and now they are putting original Xbox games on XBL. I think both companies know they will make more money if you go and download them again. I personally will not waist my time paying and downloading a game I already have just to play it on a next-gen system.
