Did you know that the PS3’s backwards compatibility with PSOne and PS2 games won’t be achieved through an emulator? Japanese technology magazine, Ultra One, claims that the PS3 will include the PS2 chipset until an efficient emulator is developed.
The July issue of the magazine reassures gamers that, despite the removal of the PS2 chipsets for future models, the PS3 will still remain compatible with those early PS3 games – thanks to updates that can be downloaded via the PS3’s online service.
