PlayStation 3 to PSP functionality demoed

At TGS, Sony demonstrated the PS3 connectivity with the PSP and how you will be able to download original PlayStation games to your PS3 and emulate on your PSP.

The game that was featured in this demo was the original Ridge Racer for the PS1. Gamers were amazed at the fact that now you can play old and favorite PlayStation games on your PSP. Sounds like Sony took a chapter from Nintendos book.

They just had a ps3 next to a psp that was playing ridge racer for ps1.

For those who missed the news yesterday, #1 is completely correct. Sony never actually showed a download happen, they just had the game on a PSP that was setting beside a PS3.

If you wanna take Sony's word that it happened, go ahead. Hope you also enjoyed the Spring '06 launch, the "final" boomerang controller...

In the words of Jimmy: "Come on."

Finally a real solid reason to buy a PS3 to sit next to my 360 and PSP. This is a system selling feature for sure. Nice one.

hopefully someone will figure out a way to download these games and play them for free.

heheh, i know im a scum for doing it the illegal way, but i love free.

free (read: illegal) will kill a format. So please buy a PS3 and not a 360

The score for the first Plants Vs Zombies is such great, iconic music that it has a timeless quality. Not quite the level of Minecraft, but wonderful in its own right.
