Leaked picture of PSP PS One emulator?

Yeah, FFVII and MGS are about the only games I'd buy from that list. You'll need a FAT card to play FFVII though (Even my 2GB won't be enough) since it spanned 4 CDs. MGS also since it spanned about 1 1/2.

Did they ever give an indication when this will start? Would mind playing a decent RPG on this handheld marvel.

EDIT: Just saw the GT2 picture and, if this is at all true, they may update the games with WiFi compatability. How f***ing sweet would Quake II be going MP agains a few peeps. That would roxorz my boxorz!!
 
Definitely looks legit. Seeing as they are adding wireless multiplayer for GT2, would they do it for other games? If not multiplayer, perhaps add some bonus options to other titles?

Nope, just the leaked picture is all I found. I'll be surprised at how they are going to handle this... it wouldn't make sense to make people buy a $100 - $200 card just to play a $15 dollar PS One game. I would have to give it a thumbs down, then... but I don't see any other way it would work.

GT 2 can get wifi because it's made by Sony, but the other titles, I'm not sure they could do alot since they don't technically own them.
 
I wonder if you'll be able to unlock a downloadable version by having the original in your PC drive and have the site scan it or something... Or maybe they'll just put out a program that rips the games right to the memory card. :whistle2:k
 
Those pics actually do look legit, but $15 per game for something I already own? I dunno... if the graphics for FFVII were cleaned up a little bit or something like that, then I'd consider it, but if it's $15 for a straight up emulation of a game I already own, then fuck it.

I'll pay $15 just to have FF 7 portable to play it between classes when I go back to school. The other games... not so much.
 
I'd pay $15 for the Final Fantasies, maybe just that specific one was $15. Since the one shown was a first party game, maybe third party games will be less, or maybe more. I think it would be ok though, the only thing is, like you guys already mentioned, is how would it be stored on a memory card.
 
$15 is no big deal if you ask me. Ive seen sooo many times where people have said they would pay $40 if they released FF7 on UMD. This just saves money. :D
 
i hope sony will release those games on a UMD. If I have to chose between paying $15 for a non physical copy of a game or $30-40 for a UMD copy, I'll take the UMD.
 
[quote name='slidecage']anyone think any news will be told at E3 about this or are we looking at least next year before download Happen[/quote]

I would think E3 would be when all of this is unvealed. As for launch, I wouldn't put it later than the fall. If you look to the past, most hand held news isn't made public until no more than 6 months before release (the PSP system itself was revealed only something like 11 months before release (though I may be incorrect on this)). Anyway, I would suspect that release would be somewhere in the neighborhood of the July / August timeframe when sales are generally slower.

I'm hoping they don't make the price $15 and that what's in that picture is only a placeholder for price. I'd be willing to place $10 on a game, but $15 I would be a bit hesitant on. Either way, I'm going to be pretty happy if they make FFVII available at launch.

Eh, I'm going to have to go with fake on this one. Seems as real as all those firmware 3.0 screens, but cool and hopefully legit none the less.
 
I'd pay $10 or $15 for Tekken 3 and $15 for any great RPG game (probally Final Fantasy VII since I barely played that). I think I'd rather get GT Mobile, though, and hopefully that might come out before this emulation system. Tekken is the only game that I really remember loving for a long time from the Play Station, although I'd probally get Coolboarders 3 (I think it was called Coolboarders) as the only snow boarding game that I've ever really enjoyed.
 
If there's anything sticking out initially that leads me to believe this is fake, it's that Quake 2 comes after Twisted Metal 2 in what looks like an alphabetical listing of titles.
 
that looks most interesting... id be all over this if I had a psp. The PS1 has SOOOOO many games thatdmake great portables.
 
if someone pays 15 dollars for an easily available ps1 game ur mentaly retarded.

Those games should be like 3.95 a download and the rare ones/popular ones perhaps like 5 bucks.

Final Fantasy 7 is easily available?

Not really.

I think it's $25 - $30 at EB / GS and upwards of $50 on Ebay. Why should they charge less when people will shell out $15 a pop for FF 7?
 
I'm still torn on the whole concept. I don't really want to have to shell out a lot of money on a memory card and then more the game itself. If they had an option of ripping the CD you own then I might go for it. Then do I really want to replay my PS1 games? It might be good for some games I missed back in the day. I think I'll still wait and see.
 
Thing is that, unless these things are heavily encrypted to only work with your mac address/serial number, anyone can just take the files and upload them on the net for everyone to download for free.

Im sure even if sony came up with some "unbreakable encryption" hackers would just crack it within a month or two anyways.

GameStop and EB in my area charges $10 for a used copy of FFVII and $15 for a new Greatest Hits version. and the last time I was at Circuit City they had it there for $15 too.

I can't see why anyone would want to drop $15 on a downloaded game that could easly be deleted or corrupted. $15 would be fine if you were getting a copy of it on a UMD but for a downloaded game it shouldn't be any more then $5.

Also Bezerker is correct this has been officially debunked and is infact Fake.
 
Neat but $15 for a game you can buy used for $10 without having a gigantic memory stick? No thanks...:lol:

I honestly have a ton of questions about this feature and if it'll work. Carrying just one, single disc game will require at least 512MB memory stick but those multi-disc games will use over 1GB easily. So, unless the games were compressed in a new way, I just don't see this taking off...

so far hackers hasnt been able to crack any psp above 2.01 like they can with 1.5.
 
[quote name='62t']so far hackers hasnt been able to crack any psp above 2.01 like they can with 1.5.[/quote]

I thought 2.6 was hacked so you could play emulators and crap on it... I don't know how I feel about PS1 games... were there that many classic, must-have games for the system? I guess there are a handful but a few of the great ones have already been remake (MGS, RE)....

you are correct. I play emulation on 2.6 through GTA exploit :)

Everything between 2.00 and 2.60 has been cracked for a few months. But my point was that since its downloaded to the memory card, and runs through the "Game" tab like homebrew/iso launchers for 1.5, you should be able to just up the files on the net, download them, put em in your game folder, and be good to go.

Apparently you live in a different place then me... I suggest you pick those bad boys up and resell them, that's easy money, espically the sealed ones. This is what my EB / GS charge -

Kind of weird your stores are different.
 
So, it's been confirmed fake but still $15 for a PS1 game is too much when you can find a wide assortment of pre-played games anywhere for a couple bucks. Sure you look at the price of downloads and then add in the cost of memory sticks will add up in the end. FFVII for $15 + $150 for a memory stick = too much money for an over rated RPG.
 
You can only play free "games" on 1.5 so far. 2.01 and above are limited in what you can do compare to1.5

It would also be foolish for sony not to include a newer firmware (even harder to crack) and something similar to the protection use for mp3 and itune.
 
The fact that the moving waves in the background arent moving (Same position in every shot) pretty much proves its fakeness in one fell swoop.

Also, this many games wouldnt be enabled at launch.

Yes, because god forbid anyone use the wave stopper program that was released a while back*rolls eyes*.

And Sony would be just the one to do that on one of their 3.0 betas. You know Sony, they love 3rd party hackwares on their beta systems. F*cking retard. Go back to watching FMA with the other mouth breathers.
 
I'd pay IF AND ONLY IF I can actually back up the games on to my computer, so I can keep them forever and ever. Otherwise no sale.

I wouldn't mind, actually I would love portable versions of FF7, FF8, FF9, Metal Gear, Chrono Cross, and perhaps a few others. WIth the play time I could put in with these games they would be worth $15. Although, I will admit that seems a little expensive for a copy of an old game that I don't even get a physical copy of.

The VAST majority of the disc space used by FF7 was video (every scene where the background moved was video).

Compression has come a long way, both for video and redular data.

Actually, the moving action infront of video deal was created for FF8. The shimmering in FF7 was just simple animations akin to a .gif (versus .avi).

I'd also suspect the sheer size was due to ignorance on their part. 3D was still new and then didn't have compression down yet. Just look at FF8 and 9. They were the same if not few disks yet has higher quality visuals. If they cared to, they could problably squeeze it down a considerable amount. If not by simply compressing it then by the fact that you don't need 5000 poly models for a 4 inch screen. If they scale down model quality (which you wouldn't even notice) then that will also save some room.
 
The only game I'd get would be the only game I'd ever want a port of - Castlevania: SotN. The only reason I say that is because it's my favorite PS1 game and I'd love to be able to play it anywhere. I don't see myself paying more money for a portable version of a game that I've either already played or currently own.

If I wanted to play PS1 games I'd put it into either my PS1 or PS2 with my television and home theater system for a much more enjoyable experience than the PSP could offer. Outside of Castlevania this doesn't interest me at all.

I'll gladly add Tomba to my list. In fact, I would love to play Tomba 2 (the only time I had it I couldn't play on my PS because it detected a mod chip).
