It's completely retarded, but that's how it is.

There's also the fact such consoles are also more expensive to make: that's the main reason Sony axed the old PS3 models that could do that... although why they can't program the PS3 bits to emulate the PS2 is beyond me.

The PS3 supposedly has an entirely different Graphics engine that for some reason is incapable of emulating PS2 graphics let alone recognize any PS2 discs.

Sony: The PS3 has an entirely different graphics engine that is incapable of emulating PS2 graphics, and the blu-ray reader can't recognize PS2 discs.

Sony exec 1 in backroom: Haha they bought it! Idiots.

Sony exec 2: Oh man, next we'll charge them to "upgrade" their blu-ray player to "maximize quality."

Sony exec 1: Lolz have you seen the profits from the PSN store?!

kyanbu is correct. PS2 used a unique coding structure. PS3 uses OpenGL.

Blu-Ray reader can recogize the disc- it's merely icapable of playing the information on it, much like how it cannot play .flv files and probably will not ever since it's not a format they -want- to support.

or at least, that's my understanding of it.

Still looking for a 40Gig to this day. only 245.99 at some of the places I found them at too.

You have to press a button in order to yell Objection! and Take That! in Ace Attorney.

So, button controls > stylus controls.

You don't have to, there are things for it on the touch screen.

Correction: Voice controls > anything else

Does no one see the trouble of waggling the DS, other than the ridiculousness? Remember how some DSLs had a certain...Hinge problem? Imagine with waggling.

Sithdarth · 01-06-2010, 06:10 PM

Just putting this out there point motion controls do not immediately equate to waggle. It could be as simple as tilting and rotating. Maybe some relatively slow translations in various directions. I have faith that any decent developer will realize shaking and/or rapid movements don't really work when your holding onto the screen.

@Sithdarth: ...SuperMonkeyBall DS2?
