PS3 to use Blue-Ray Discs!

If that's the case, the PS3 does not have the actual hardware of the older systems, like the PS2 did.

...it didn't

Yes it did. The PS2 had the slightly stripped PS1 hardware in the lower portion of the machine.

ah well...must be from the latest update of ps2's

[L.S.D]

If they are going to release a PS1/PS2 emulator, aren't we the lucky one??

Oh, sorry. My mistake

I thought they are going to release a PC emulator for the system

[AntiWinner22]

From what I heard, Sony has gathered a lot of people to actually write a PS1 and a PS2 emulator as a part of PS3's kernel. If that's the case, the PS3 does not have the actual hardware of the older systems, like the PS2 did.

Then, if this is the case, you can only play DVD Games, not DVD movies. This spells trouble for Sony. Hopefully, they will somehow get some sense knocked into them to include SOME sort of DVD playback.

they'll add dvd movie options without a doubt. when ps2 came out in japan, the dvd player option is what sold them since at the time dvd players there were expensive so that made many japanese ppl happy (untill you find out the first models actually suck but oh well )

the japanese launch ps2's actually had more problems with DVD playback than american and european ps2's

The PS2 has had a version of the PSOne CPU in it's chipset since from the start.
