I thought you knew that Ps3 could indeed play PS1 games.

It's old news.

And more evidence: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ps3#Backward_compatibility

Ok, I asked for proof, and after several people attempted to refute my statement without it, it got very annoying. Good, now it's official.

Really. And you still asked that question? I don't think I'd want to take my computer to your place...

"Uh. My computer wouldn't turn on! Uh"
"Did you try plugging it in?"
"Oh... snap"
"$160, please!"
Conversation between LKR/Trent

Or he just returns them to the owner.

im not really sure. i gave it to ninty because the GBA compatability works flawlessly on the DS (except for multiplayer support which is fair enopugh). The PS2 has a black list of PS1 games that cant be played and the 360s Xbox support is pretty bad. however it will be interesting to see if the revo gets a Black list of GC games. if it does then sony and ninty are even. but so far im more impressed with nintys backward compatability.
