AntiWinner22 Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 To me, if the PS3 can't pull off PS2 emulation, since it is much different architecture than its lil' bro, it will be worthless. It is almost known that XBOX2 will be backwards compatible with the original XBOX. PS3 has yet to show me what it needs to conquer XBOX2. No PS & PS2 support on the PS3 = its death. Anon.

Anon.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> uh when did they say the xbox2 will be capatible with the old xbox? from what i read thats not true at all. Personly i think this whole backward crap is dumb as hell.... I could care less about playing xbox games when i get my xbox 2. If i did own a ps2 system( which i dont) i doubt id bother playing one ps1 game... The whole idea of buying a new system is for new games id rather them throw out the old game crap and make it cheaper. I mean do u buy a kick ass computer so u can play games that came out 5 years ago on the pc? no cause u got it for new crap. ( well and emulation... but thats a different story ) Anyways im still hoping for xbox2 to stomp sonys ass in the next round of consoles . I think xbox live is great and im sure they will just add to it on the next system... but im also sure ps3 will pull a xbox live clone out of its ass. lol is anyone even paying attention to nintendos next console?

Agozer Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Sony has out a lot of effort into emulation the PS2 on PS3 from what I've read. I think they know that if they can't pull it off good enough, teyll alienate a lot of PlayStation fans.

Anon.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's completely opposite of what I've been reading. As Agozer said, Sony is investing time in making sure it has legacy compatibility. However with Microsoft it would be tough to do it since they are now using ATI graphics and it could violate copyright laws if they tried to emulate Nvidia pathways. It also doesn't have a harddrive. But I like backwards compatibility, lots of people trade in their old systems when they buy new ones but keep the games.
iq_132 Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 lol is anyone even paying attention to nintendos next console?Yeah, I am, but it seems big N is being as tight-lipped as usual, so there aren't nearly as many details as there are for the ps3 and xbox2.
KyokugenKiss Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 FUUUUC TO X-BO X NIGGA!!!! I LOVE HOWARD STERN & KAWAKS 1.45!!!!

I have heard that the XBOX, though ATI, will have enough juice in it to emulate XBOX games, and the PS3, while capable, is going to have a tough time rendering its old games with the multiple processers...Oh, and the XBOX2 will have some sort of HD (it is one of their selling points on the original) Only time will tell, I guess.

Dooz Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 I have read numerous times that X-Box 2 will not be backwards-compatible and will not have a harddrive.
Bluestinger X Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 there will be a harddrive from what ive been reading... but u may have to buy it seprate.
