The problem there is the lack of an L2, R2 and a right analog stick on the PSP. You won't be able to play PS2 or PS3 game on the current PSP; but perhaps on a PSP2 in the future?

@ Jason

So you can't have PS3 support then? What about games like Lair? You can work around the L2/R2 and second analog stick. The only thing you absolutely cannot do on the PSP is motion control.

@ linebeginstoblur

You'd have to do some modification to the code to make it work though, that can't be done with PS2 games or existing PS3 games that don't already support remote play. So future PS3 games may support remote play. I don't think PS2 games that use both analog sticks or L2 and R2 will ever work unless they are reworked and made available through the PS store.

omg people.... have you ever played a ps1 game on psp? they have different controll schemes that you can use for the l2 and r2 buttons... not all ps2/ps3 games require 2 anolog sticks! and if all else fails, i can use my ir keyboard!

you go to the ps3 and swap discs! ^_^

I for one am "throwing up a negative comment" because the PSP can do this *right now* with custom firmware, but the actual code to do it is 100% Sony original. Why haven't 95% of PSP owners been able to do it for the last year like I have? Because Sony doesn't want you to go out and buy a box full of PS1 games from somebody's garage sale for 10 bucks like I did, they want you to pay 5 bucks a game *again* (even if you already own it) to download it from their store.

I've played at least a dozen of my old PS1 games on my PSP and I couldn't be happier. And with CFW, I don't suddenly lose my game if I wander out of range of the WiFi signal I was using ;-)

GT Mobile is now officially dropped BUT there is an offshoot of GT 5 coming to the PSP 'right after' GT5 gets released. This according to Kaz of Polyphony.

You mean from a handheld and console released 8 years ago?

@Alien

I hear the PS3 has better graphics than the PS2 could ever do, as well! Comparing to an older generation is kinda fruitless, no?

The psp has the ability to turn the ps3 ON and OFF. No reason to leave your ps3 on. Well, I guess when you want to fold.
