Poll: How much would you spend for a PS2 emulator for your PS3?

[Kenjitsuka]

It's very important to have, but I paid a billion dollars back in the day for the PS3 so I demand it for free!

 

[Guitarmasterx7]

Probably about 60 dollars, because I could sell my PS2 for close to that and save myself some shelf space.

I wouldn't payu anything 'cause I kept my PS2 and my PlayStation after I jumped generations. I'm glad I did to, PS1games dosen't look that good on PS2 and I've heard that PS2games looks terrible on PS3 60g.

 

[nmatters]

Got one on my pc (for free) and I don't own a ps3 so... =/

 

[TxMxRonin]

Zero, because like any gamer who's tight on cash I still own mine.

 

[Beartrucci]

I still have my PS2 set up right next to my PS3 so I don't really need an emulator. It would be nice though if an emulator came in a Firmware update.

I wouldn't pay money to buy something I don't need.

They have one for free already in the PS store but it only works on ps2 game that can be downloaded onto a hard drive, which is like 5 games, and none of them are good.

nothing. i have one of the original 60gb models so i already have full bc with ps2 games.

they dont, they look the same as they did on the ps2. if you use an hdtv they do but there are settings to correct that.

Really? D**** it, I fell for anti-PS3 propaganda!

 

[Terramax]

Can we change it to PS2 emulator for the PC? Pleasssssssssse?

The fact that you can't play PS2 games on the newer PS3s is something of a real downer. An extra 50pounds would be what I'd be willing to pay.

EDIT:

Where!? How?!

 

[Amnestic]

None. I still have a functional PS2 and when it finally gets posted, I'll have a PS1 memory card for it again so I can play all my PS1 games and save them too.

 

[sephiroth1991]

My ps3 can already play ps and ps2 games

 

[Megacherv]

I would not pay for an emulator. That's like paying for a torrent tracker.

Besides, I doubt a PS3 would have the power to emulate a PS2 to a playable standard. On PC, PS2 emulators require very high specs to run close to 100% speed during action.

The PS3 has an 8-core 3.2GHz processor, one core for its graphics. That's 3.2GHz for graphics. Power isn't the issue. The problem is architecture. It's hard to emulate the Graphics Synthesizer because of how strange it works, and Sony said that they basically can't be bothered to have to code for ages to get it working. I'd love a service where you could have a PS2's Graphics Synthesizer installed into your PS3, and that any PS1/PS2 accessories worked perfectly (I have the G-Con .45 and the G-Con 2), through USB adaptors if necessary.

 

[WodashGSJ]

If the PS3 was fully backwards compatible at no extra cost, that's about the only thing that would make me seriously consider replacing my PS2 with one. As it is, there's no way I'm throwing away my old games just to get a shinier console.

 

[Macgyvercas]

None...because I have a 60GB model with backwards compatability.

 

[Adzma]

Don't care, I have a launch 60g model. BC FTW!

This and proud of it. Sony really shouldn't have removed the PS2 backwards compatibility from later models.

 

[dekkarax]

Nothing, I'd buy a PS2.
