PlayStation 3s without PS2 backwards compatibility are missing the Emotion Engine, a chip Sony designed as the PS2's CPU. What if the PS3's cell processor could emulate the Emotion Engine? Theoretically, all PlayStation 3s would be able to play PS2 games even if a console didn't have the proper hardware. According to a recent patent filed by Sony Computer Entertainment in the US, Sony has the code and technology ready to do this.

This has got to be their next up for firmware 3.0 :)

If correct, the PS3 will indeed have the greatest game library EVER.

Hi,

I have the Beyer DT 770 headphones and a nice gaming rig + PS3.

I came across this neat little gadget which seems promising for just under 100$.

Has anyone experienced with such thing before?

thanks

[QUOTE="bleehum"][QUOTE="killab2oo5"]A better question is, "Blu-ray...was it worth it?". It's been the source of most PS3 and Sony problems.killab2oo5

no a pentium 4 would have done much better for much less cost. a single core pentium 4 3/2ghz or athlon 64 3200 are much better than any console cpu but ms took the cheap option and sony to the well don't buy other people's stuff option. [QUOTE="cainetao11"]What? Have you seen MGS4 or KZ2? No graphics compare! Seriously though, maybe the cost would have been cheaper if you didn't stroke your ego by making custom processors Sony. What is it doing that others aren't?imprezawrx500
