Default Awesome New Feature For Ps3/PSP

This is a damn sweet feature.

The ability to play Ps1 games from your PSP thats in your PS3 anywhere from the world as long as Ps3 is online.

I almost had this set up but then I couldn't remember my PSN password! What a shitty situation!

But it'll be nice to play Chrono Cross on the go. And maybe I could finish FF7 for once.

Wonder how the load times are, and what happens if the signal goes bad.

The idea is mighty sweet though. Hope it works well in execution.

Don't think I'd play my PSX games anymore than I do currently (never), but I'm sure a lot of failing DigiPen students will love this, and I will likely get to watch many Final Fantasy 7 games during class. They need to go this with GCN games. Could you imagine playing PSO on the go?

Is this official or still a rumor?

The confirmed list is missing a lot of the titles I'd want still. Though I sometimes wonder how those old full versaions of games would compare to the glitchy stuff on PSP.

Wait, why would you need to be in a WiFi spot? Doesn't the signal come from the PS3?

Yes, but not the way you're thinking. It sends information from the PS3, through the internet, to your PSP. So you can have your PS3 on in the Netherlands and be playing a game from your PS3 on your PSP while visiting New Orleans (not that you would want to be playing while visiting New Orleans). Theoretically, anyway, I'm sure it's affected by internets congestion.

And will it work without a WiFi hotspot when you're close to the PS3?

And I saw A Love Song For Bobby Long, with an old John Travolta in New Orleans. Good movie.

No. Your PS3 is not broadcasting any information. Your PS3 is not a wireless access point. All your bases do not belong to us.
