PS2 Classics now using upscaling and smoothing features on PS3

The first PS2 Games from the game archives using now a upscaling and smoothing feature on PlayStation 3.

Okay......

and the first ps2 classic to get these features is Haunting Ground and....Dora the explora :L

Sadly, don't know who thought that PS3 owners were children though. I certainly don't want Dora.

me too bud, what was the sony folks thinking?

They must have forgotten that all PS3 owners were full grown adults with beards, lives, and a 401k.

It looks like I may be buying a second copy of HG if the change is truly noticeable....

the phat PS3 did this to the old games and in certain ways it made the games look worse. I remember playing Dragon Quest 8 with the up-scaling and it actually made the game look even more blurry but the smoothing was fine. It made the game look better by hiding jaggies a little bit but nothing close to the HD remasters.

if they were adding trophies to each classic they would sell double, or tripple

[LNDCalling]

Wasn't this option always available i.e. enabling or disabling smoothing and scaling ???

Dora is a very underrated game by the way!

[ChunkyLover53]

So they are doing what the original backwards compatible PS3's did for free?

i'd prefer if i could use the disc i already own rather than being forced to pay for downloaded copies.
