PS3-playable PSOne titles grace Japan PlayStation Store

You do know PSOne discs are playable with the PS3, right? - Image 1The Japanese PlayStation.com site has been updated to display the first batch of PS3-playable PSOne titles that can be purchased-downloaded to Sony's next-gen console. And since it is Japanese and Google Translate is of not help here, we've checked alternate sources to hit up some translations of those titles. So far, we've got Resident Evil (Biohazard) Director's Cut, R-Types, Tekken 2 and Bishi Bashi Special from MCV and CVG; care to translate the rest?

At the same time, there are a bunch of PSOne titles in the Store that are PSP-only, CVG and MCV report - not to mention the caveat's in the PS.com site as well (also says you need FW 3.40)... so if this is an indicator, it seems, so far, that there will be two categories of PSOne downloadables in the store: for PS3/PSP and for PSP-only.

This will be great if they come out in the US, but still, one thing dogs my mind...where's frickin' Super rub a dub? Is the game not to be released in the US or what?

Wait, so it's just been announced, or are these online right now in the JP Playstation Store? Does anyone know if they'll be upscaled to 720p or higher?

Hey QJ. If you want to report on news from Japan, why don't you get some staff who can actually read the damn language? Maybe you wouldn't have to rely on hilariously crappy machine translations then.

yes i very much agree with this, if your gonna report news in a different language other than english, you should definitely get some good human translators.

you can download super rub a dub on a us account for free. go to www.ps3news.com and check it out. There are details there on how to do. I've been playing it since day one.

Stop bashing Sony. If you have a PS3 and a PSP and could buy an old PS1 title for 10 bucks and be able to play it on the PS3, save your game to a memory stick, put that stick in your PSP, and then play on the go, it'd be a pretty sweet deal. Unless you already own the PS1 game. Then they should make it free to rip your disc into a PSP playable format, and therefore you could still play on your PS3 and on the go on your PSP all for no charge. If Sony plays their cards right, PS3/PSP could end up being a killer combination. They just need to drop the price of PS3 and release some PS3 only titles so people will buy their new system. I'm thinking a $400 PS3 60GB HDD with FFXIII, Kingdom Hearts 3, Guitar Hero 3 all PS3 exclusive games available would sell the system to quite a few people.
