That's insane. The SimCity 2000 city I've been playing for four years no longer seems so impressive.

looks like sony europe is doing a one step forward, two steps back on PS2 emulation.

They have made a list of games available over there and they will be compatible ps2 software on ps3.

but you have to pay for them :twisted:

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digit ... ics-on-ps3

they have set up there^ information and screenshots of a few games running on their PS3 emu software. Some play better than others.

Its off to a MEH start of ps2 on ps3 emulation.

so dont hold your breath for this in the US.....yet
