As far as I know the PS3 won't support PS1/PS2-controllers.
Yes, PS3 is fully backwards compatible with PSOne and PS2 games, but you cannot use PSOne or PS2 controllers for it, I believe.
Just wish We get back True Pitch Control @ some point woohoo I'm back Fast Eddie style.
I wish Sony would announce some news about the next wipeout - especially given the success of pure :(
PS3 isn't looking very exciting at the mo - this is the kind of game that would generate a lot of interest in the expensive machine.
I am going to cry for days on end if there is no Wipeout for PS3.
I originally bought psx for the very love of Wipeout and XL at the time.
If I had money for a PSP, I buy it for Pure. The same goes for PS3.
I like other games, but, the Wipeout series holds a special place in my heart forever.
there is going to be another Wipeout, don`t worry about that. :)
As Yawns says, some announcement would be appreciated, but I suppose Sony has a plan for the right time to release any official news. It just can`t come soon enough for us.
I really need a Pure 2 for my PSP. I spend two hours a day on the bus you know ;)
I believe that might be possible as Pure was such a success. We might also get more PSP wipeout if/when Sony release the PS1 emulator for it. Dream of Wipeout 3 on your psp..... 8)
or original wipeout:hyper
EDIT: I wonder if the emu will have adhoc ...
now THAT would be killer!
There's a good chance it will support Ad-Hoc for PSOne games. I certainly hope so. :)
And a sequel to Pure on PSP? Yes, please! :D
actually I don't think they will support ad-hoc. the original version didn't have an ad-hoc multiplayer interface (of course not), and I don't think they'll build one for each game...
well how would ppl be able to play the multiplayer games with other ppl???
(I.E. twisted metal, WO3, 2097, WipEout(was there 2 player??), jeopardy, football, etc.????)
of course there was multiplayer in those original games, but for several players on a single console, which of course isn't possible on a psp. however, if they were to convert that single console multiplayer, or even the link cable multiplayer, into a wireless multiplayer, they would have to implement that seperately into the code of each game emulation, which sounds like WAY too much work to be realized. My guess is those emulations will be 1:1 ports, without any enhancements, and the originally built in multiplayer simply won't work.
but you can always hope...
The idea of putting all the wipeout titles onto psp would be so nice!!
Can't we all just keep on writing to sony and make them crazy for it? I don't think it would be that hard to do it.
it's already semi-confirmed that the old wipEout titles will appear as emulations on PSP.
Sounds like Ad-Hoc is pretty much out of the picture then.
Ah well, simply being able to play PSOne games on PSP is still going to be amazing! :D
When wipEout comes out on PS3 I would love to see some sort of Special Edition type package incorporating the first three wipEout's as well as the new game, it was done with Doom 3, so why not our beloved wipEout, please SL/Sony surely it can be done, PS3 being backward compatible and all :D
I can already play NES, SNES, Sega Genesis and N64 games on my psp:dizzy :pQuote:

Once sony ventured into software market, they kinda got greedy, so even though no-one has to pay for homebrew, Sony don't particularly like the competition from a free market. Which i understand as many of the psp games out i have fond majorly dissapointign as they have only been console points, nothign bespoke or specially designed for, such as the ninty DS games...(everytime I babysit for some friends, i take my psp, so they play loco roco and i play ont he DS they have...its warped...very warped...)
What if Thom Yorke was a computer geek...? He'd proabably writitgn a song about it now...
