Don't worry: you don't need a PS3 to download PSone games

[jwilds73]

yup, plus i hear alot of games will not be released since they have lost the rights to the music soundtracks so count many of ur fav ps1 games out of the list.

sony should just release a pay2convert program kinda like pspvideo9 except that wus free.

I have said this from the beginning. And I will say it again. Games such as Marvel vs Capcom will not be released for this Emulator because Capcom no longer has the rights to publish Marvel characters in their games. They are also barred from republishing their previous titles featuring Marvel characters due to licensing restrictions. Which is why there has never been and never will be a Marvel vs Capcom Collection. Sony has failed us because of their greed. This emulator will be way to limited on what titles we can purchase for it.

DUH. course you wont need a ps3 to get the emu and games .and yes they will have every game that was on the ps1 for download. i dont care what you THINK ,i know it to be true and could argue it but why bother.

and i will buy a few of my fav ps1 games and im sure thats all sony expects you to do ,you dont have to have them all (duh).

the emu aint even out yet and its alredy being bashed.please

and i also will never own another consule .frankly i find them boring as hell anymore .i was at a friends house and he has a xbox 360 and like 20 games and we smoked a faty and i still couldnt get into it , it was kinda scary how much i didnt care (scared me anyway).

It feels pretty obvious that Sony wouln't be that evil to make PSP owners buy a 600$ console to have access to a 20$ console's games. I'm still getting a PS3 though.

they also said the ps1 games should all be below 15$(7-9£)AND syphon filter is on their list for "ready" WOO HOO!

I know I'm glad to hear this. I was worried that Sony would pull some stupid crap and make everybody buy the PS3 BEFORE getting the downloads, but luckily they have just a little more gray-matter than I was hoping for.

One thing that I find annoying, though: Why can't I just download the PS1 games to my PC and THEN transfer them to my PSP?

o_o The PSP only has 802.11b wireless, so it's going to be downloading slower than my PC would be. Then there's the fact that I have to leave my PSP plugged in and downloading for possibly hours (depending on the speed of Sony's servers) for ONE game. And what about people who don't have wireless in their home?

it would be better if we could transfer our old PS1 games from the PS3 to the PSP via wireless. Then we could at least play the games we already own for free.

firstly i fully agree with the poster above me - it should be that way.

actually if you have an 11 meg service or less that wont matter because 802.11b is 11 megabits a second. obviously if your not that close to your wireless device then the speed will drop a bit but if you were going to download a game to your psp you would place it close as possible to the device anyway. however your other points are perfectly valid. as for the no wireless problem im sure sonys answer is the ps3 :\. i think even a 4 gig stick wont hold any more than maybe 5 games so i think sonys idea is a bit flawed anyway especially for those that dont have a pc or dont have the wads of cash required for a ps3.
