ok
1.) dont jump to conclustions the "already" downloads ps1 games will work with ur damn update no need to re buy
2.)ps3 can play ps1 games i dont know were u get that

and the ps1 store is cheap like 10-15 $ right??? cuz ill just sell the games they already have and rebuy them so faster load times
my summer is gonna rock with a new ps3 and my own wii (bro wont let me play his)

So I can't play the original PSOne games I own on my PS3? Or via an official tool convert them to run on my PSP? But I can rebuy only the ones currently released (many of which I own original PSX discs of) and not unrepublishable due to copyright laws and play them for a price. Woohoo! Screw you Sony.

PS1 Cds should be replayable

Anyways, I didn't know the PS3 wasn't backwards compatible with PSOne games....That makes me want to buy it less now. I own 74 original Playstation first generation CD's...what am I supposed to do with them if I sell my PS2 to get a PS3?

Pops it is!

only UK PS3 doesnt play them because of the removed emotion engine PS2 CPU

[JKKDARK]

no compatibility for PSX discs? That really sucks

[Welshboy]

Why? what is the point of this?.........its not even news, I mean come on! playing PS1 games on a PSP? oh wow! tell you what sony, you keep updating the emu yeah? like a good company would do. Ha Ha!.....if only more people tapped into the unparalleled source of there PSP as opposed to having custom firmware.
