OH YA forgot to add that this is one thing i am soooo glad sony is doing so frickin' right!
They talked about PSP-PS3 interconnectivity since a long time ago and I thought it'd be this gimmicky thing that would be superficial and not pursued that far. BUT what sony has done is just wonderful! Of course this may not appeal to the masses that much, and they probably deserve more credit for all of this

The only thing I can think of is that they might not be sure how well it really works and don't want to advertise it only to find out it has a ton of flaws in it.

What kind of witchery is this? :lol Amazing stuff, but one more question - I get having my PSP logged onto wi-fi, but do I need wi-fi in my house or can my PS3 be hooked into ethernet? (It will be plugged in.)badcrumble said:

Connecting your PS3 via ethernet is perfect.

They really should. Leverage the PS1 games as a kind of VC or DS level experience, and then show someone playing Twisted Metal on the subway or something. It's an absolutely brilliant feature.
I doubt it will happen. The region coding/copy protection is a software level feature of the PSX system. Unless they actually verified protection before ripping, people would just download PSX games and rip them to their HD.SRG01 said:
I am guessing this is probably the best you will ever see on this feature.. Not that that's bad.. this is already pretty damn cool.
Just because so many people are asking...
1. You have to have a PSP and a PS3 (the PS3 needs to be setup on a wireless router if you don't have the wireless version).
2. The PSP can connect to the PS3 via remote play anywhere in the world, as long as you have an internet connection available (because of a recent firmware update, the PS3 doesn't have to be on when you leave. The PSP has the ability to turn the PS3 ON AND OFF through remote play). This means you can do this at home, or you can go on vacation to another state, use your PSP to turn on your PS3 and subsequently use remote play.
3. Because of last night's FW update, the PSP can now play any PSone titles downloaded through the playstation store that are stored on the PS3. In addtion, if a PSone disc is in the PS3, it can be played on the PSP as well, all through remote play.

Alright, I'm impressed now. Wasn't seeing the point other than Dad wanting to watch football in HD and me wanting to play one of the many PSX games I'm sure to go back and buy now.
Why are so many people so confused about Remote Play?
This is remote play:
the PS3 handles all rendering and runs all the games. All calculations are made on the PS3.
The PS3 sends a video and audio feed to the PSP, and the PSP sends controller input (like a wireless controller)

This will lead to domestic violence. "Why the hell did you turn my PS3 off?!" "Nobody was using it!"

Doesn't the PSP's battery only last like an hour and a half with wifi enabled? This doesn't seem very practical.

Whoa. This is fantastic news. I didn't even know the PS3/PSP was capable of all this.

Damn my brother sold his PSP. Looks like I'm picking up a slim on Boxing day. So if I bought like for PS1 games off the network, I can play those 4 games without changing any discs at any wifi spot? Plus a 5th if I left one in the drive. OMFG this owns. Too many updates my ass, keep em coming Sony !!!

It's like opening a christmas gift. You rip off the packaging and see a Payless Shoes package, open it and finding money inside inside. Only in this case it's more like downloading an update that you think will give you divx support and finding out that you can now play all PSX games using remote play.nicholasphan said:

Whoa, I was thinking about this very same feature today. Awesome. *breaks out Lunar 2: EB*
Before I read it, I was like, well that sucks, because they will never be able to do that with PS2 games since the PSP isn't strong enough. But then I read about how it's all done on the PS3 and the PSP is just a remote with a screen. That's freakin' awesome! This will probably push me away from the 360 and towards the PS3/PSP. Now, if they could do this with PS2 games and then PS3 games and even Blu Ray movies, this would be the sweetest system known to man. And, when you play PS3 games on the PSP, they should allow you to connect a PS3 controller to it wirelessly or through USB. Damn it man, I don't care how fast the battery will run out! I'll carry a generator!
Seriously, this is something I've been wanting ever since the GBA/GC connection, the ability to take a game on the go with you.

remote play is the one innovation that nintendo will probably copy from sony.
sony needs to push remote play a lot harder than they are. although this gives some psp owner more reasons not to buy software :lol
