Gamezine: As Sony's backwards compatibility patents make the rounds, a German website has supposedly gained comment from a Sony employee.
We were quick to point out that the unearthed Sony patents for the emulation of the PS2's CPU (Emotion Engine) on the PlayStation 3 did not imply full backwards compatibility. This was for the simple fact that the PS3 had already been software emulating the Emotion Engine since early-2007 when it was ripped out of European PS3s.
However, the fact remained that the patent was filed in December 2008 with a publication date of only last week.
This brings us to the German website Demon News, which claims to have gained comment from a Sony employee.
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."
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.
Hmm.
Hum....no. There have been something like 4 Sony patents during the last three years regarding EE emulation. More, there haven't been a single one refering to RS emulation. Siliconera couldn't even distinguish between EE and RS chips in their article. So much for quality journalism.
It would be great if true, but this "Sony insider" is almost certainly BS.
...i just hope they can at least pull off backwards compatibility...
i doubt this is happening and i will be skeptical until Sony holds a press conference and announces this themselves...even though i have the 80 gig motorstorm pack and i have no need for backwards compatibility this would be huge among newer ps3 adopters
this would take a team of dedicated people a while to do
idk, if it's legit I have an 80gb already idc
but if it isn't does anybody care THAT much
who cannot go buy the 80gb that are still available
