PS2 emulator for PS3 (confidential)
SCEA wants to sell all PS2 titles on PSN (GTA Vice City/Sonic/etc)
DC Digital Titles
If we provide a list of DC titles SCEA will let us know which ones theyre interested in having exclusively.
If we give them a long period of exclusivity theyll give us more marketing support.
Yakuza
Could put Japanese games directly on PSN for download in a special Japanese Import section (pricing $9.99 to $39.99 for full game).
Might need to localize menus at least with subtitles.
SCEA interested in helping on MKTG side if they can have period of exclusivity.

I have all 3, so I personally don't care. Will get an offset analog controller though, makes sense for DC games.Polari said:Downloadable DC games? Hell yeah. Exclusive to PS3 bit can fuck right off though.
I'm sure that's the reason :-/ Totally likely, disregarding the time lapse and the cost of the chip.SuperMattyFighter2T said:So they removed PS2 BC so they could charge us for it on a per title basis? Eh, fuck that. I won't give them a dime.
Doesn't seem like anything that MS doesn't do, cept that Sony seems to offer marketing rather than development money, judging from the notes.laserbeam said:Such strange negotiations. Seems like SCEA still views itself as the market leader with its demands for exclusivity,wanting more hyping of Sony skus if Sega wants to be treated better etc
they removed it so they can manufacture the console cheaper thus allowing reduction in price to consumers, junior.SuperMattyFighter2T said:So they removed PS2 BC so they could charge us for it on a per title basis? Eh, fuck that. I won't give them a dime.
sprsk said:Yeah, ouch.
You say that like it's a bad thing. Long live the unlocked FTP!Sciz said:It continues to blow my mind that after all these years of information and announcements leaking from that FTP, they still haven't implemented even a simple password to keep the general public out of it.

Puck said:and while it is potentially good news for consumers and always interesting, i don't think it is polite nor ethical for us to share trade secrets.

SuperMattyFighter2T said:Wow, take off the Sony blinders. Sony is definitely looking out for your wallet dude. They would never do anything like that, right?
Darkpen said:Yakuza 3 and Kenzan released in western PSN stores w/ localization? Fuck yes please!
Stop kidding yourself. No shit they're after your wallet, just like every other giant corporation, but they had to change the hardware to reduce prices early on in an attempt to stay competitive, and BC just happened to be something they felt could be sacrificed, on hopes of developing a reliable software-based emulator.SuperMattyFighter2T said:Wow, take off the Sony blinders.

Dude D:lupin23rd said:Wow, good stuff if true.
I can't imagine them actually porting Yakuza since they seem to not want to spend money even to localize it, but who knows.
And do we really trust Sony to ask for the right DC (or if possible, Saturn) games to put on PSN? :lol

lupinko said:So the Dreamcast 2 after all is just the PS3? :lol
Then again with how Takeuchi described the wand use, the PS3 is also Pachter's WiiHD. :lol
Andrew2 said:given the fact I still have my Dreamcast(and play it on a regular basis), DC on games PSN while sounding great is pointless to me. Now if it was Saturn titles I wouldn't mind since I don't have access to one anymore.

y u mad?SuperMattyFighter2T said:Fixed. Funny how that works out.
And that changes what, exactly?SuperMattyFighter2T said:Fixed. Funny how that works out.

rainking187 said:That's not what it says though. They could release japanese games on the PSN, and they might translate the menus. Doesn't say anything about actually localizing the rest of the game.
