With Sony going for wireless controllers, it's doubtful that the older PS2 controllers will work with the PS3.

YES, so hang onto 'em (or buy a new set off eBay for dirt cheap). And they're nice and small as you remember. It's just a standard PS3 Multi-AV plug.

It is motion sensing system found in PS3 controller. It does not require extra motion sensing device. Game developers are able to incorporate motion sensing function in their games for better gaming experience.

Yes! They will! Sony Computer Entertainment boss Ken Kutaragi has confirmed that the Playstation 3 will feature backwards compatibility with the PS2 ans PS one. Later it was confirmed agin at the Sonys E3 conference that the PS3 will be fully backwards compatible with PS1 and PS2 games.

Sony has promised backwards compatibility with PS2 games, but now there is talk that the emulation required to pull this off might not be ready for launch. It's also unknown if all PS2 games will be playable on the PS3 if the do pull off this backwards compatibility.

The controllers contain non-removable Li-ion battery has play time of 30 hours between charges. The wireless remote can be played from distance of up to 265 feet.

Sony will release an adaptor that will allow players to copy and use their old PS1 and PS2 memory cards.

Yes, though you won’t be able to use your old controllers, memory cards, or other peripherals. The PS3 will upscale the PSOne and PS2 games’ video to HD resolutions, should you choose.

I imagine that most devices use simple bilinear filtering to upscale an image. The downside of this is softer edges. I think I’ve seen descriptions of algorithms that attempt to find hard edges in the source material and to preserve them after upscaling.

A tech demo of Final Fantasy VII running on the PSP was shown at E3 in 2005. Although Square-Enix currently have not announced any plans for a sequel, they have said that if there is enough interest in it, then they may consider developing this title in the future. The only place that we know of where you can purchase these from are through Square-Enix's Japanese website. However, the bad news is that you must have a Japanese shipping address in order to buy from their online store.

PSP can be incorporated to work with PS3 in various ways. It can act as remote control or addition viewing angle for certain games. It is ultimately up to game developers and PS3 community to come up with new and interesting way to use PSP and PS3 together.

We've used several standard USB headsets and they worked just fine. I tried a Logitech model and it was perfect; the PS3 recognized it just fine. Any typical PC headset should work.

There are a few tips regarding this subject on the forums. PS/2 apparently is not recognized by OS X if there is a USB mouse attached. The easiest solution is to use USB keyboard and mouse, or some mice include an adapter to allow them to operate off the PS/2 mouse port. Basically, you need to be all one way or the other for the OS to function correctly. Alternatively, people have found that sometimes going into BIOS and disabling the USB (legacy) keyboard and mouse settings work.

No, the PS2 games utilise new technology and processor intensive tasks that the PS1 cannot perform. The PS2 is a whole new machine, however Sony have included the original PS1 chipset for backwards compatibility, meaning you can play [some] PS1 games on a PS2, but not the other way around.

Not at the moment. My original plan was to make something that worked for the Virtual Console, and they currently do that just fine. However, many homebrew applications (notably those that use the LIBOGB library) send a packet that the VC doesn't send and fail when my controllers don't respond to it. These applications also tend to fall over when the GameCube controller is pulled out of the machine, something that my controller simulates when the controllers are switched off.

A PS3, or Playstation 3 is a next generation gaming console that is being released by Sony. Before the PS3, there was the PS2 and the original Playstation. Both were very popular, and had more of a market share than Sega, Nintendo, and now Microsoft with their consoles.

HDLoader will currently work with all PS2's except for the first three Japanese models: SCPH 10000, SCPH 15000 and SCPH 18000.
