Mr. Drinky said it was only for the "new" PS3s with software emulation, how X360 does its BC.

Latest PLAYSTATION 3 Firmware Update Provides PlayStation, PlayStation 2 and DVD Upscaling, Remote Play on PSP (PlayStation Portable) via the Internet and DLNA transfer of media content also enabled.
Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) announced today availability of the latest version of the PLAYSTATION 3 (PS3) firmware. Version 1.80 features upscaling of PlayStation and PlayStation 2 games, and DVD movies up to full 1080p HD resolution when viewed on a compatible HD TV set.
The capability to upscale DVDs to HD quality is a feature normally only associated with top range DVD players, and its inclusion in the latest firmware upgrade now allows PS3 owners with an existing DVD collection to dramatically enhance the viewing pleasure of their DVD collection when viewed through a compatible HD TV set. Not only can DVD movies be enhanced to full 1080p HD quality but so too will PlayStation 2 and PlayStation games be upscaled to provide much improved gaming pleasure.
In a comprehensive update to PS3’s already impressive capabilities, Version 1.80 also allows users to enjoy Remote Play on their PSP across the internet, allowing them to access their PS3 anywhere in the world where a broadband internet connection is available2.
Version 1.80 also allows users on a home network to seamlessly view and play rich media content such as images, music and video on their PS3, that is stored on their DLNA3 enabled devices such as PCs and laptops elsewhere in the house, reinforcing PS3’s credentials as a home entertainment hub that truly deserves pride of place in the Living Room.
A host of other enhancements include the ability to print photo images stored on PS3’s hard disk or inserted storage media to a selection of Epson printers.
PS3 owners will be able to upgrade their PS3 with the latest Version 1.80 firmware from 24th May 2007.
1. DVD-ROM (including DVD Video content) can only be upscaled with HDMI compatible TV sets.
2. Use of Remote Play requires a powered up PS3 with Version 1.80 as well as PSP firmware version 3.50 which will be available at the end of May.
3. DLNA – Digital Living Network Alliance. For more info on DLNA
It's for all PS3's demi

Shit, consider me sold then. I've always wanted to play Bubsy 3D at 1080p.

zomg the trolling in this thread has forced me to soil my pantaloons

Why don't you guys like the PS3?
-
anyway mr sony marketers, will this upscaling be for those with hardware or software bc emulation?
will early adopters be screwed or will both be saved from the SD scourge?

Overpriced blu-ray player with an emphasis on "home entertainment" rather than "compelling videogame experiences"?
I am jealous that y'all get Rampart though.

Because it's library is horrible and has basically 0 exclusives, whats left, FFXIII? Thats over a year and half away. Oh and 600 US DOLLARS. PSP is pretty awesome though.
I will still buy one because I am a whore. But I also bought Saturn and NeoGeo Pocket Color.

yes to smoothing.
-
Upscaling + Smoothing should be a good combo! Jaggies won't hurt these eyes
-
yes. jaggies are my biggest concern for this upscaling deal. i'm about ready to place a fat order for some old PS2 classics if sony delivers on this.
-
Firmware 1.80 now available for download.
Blu Ray 720p output now supported. Yay, MAF?
DVD upconverting works like a charm, just as good as my standalone upconverting player.
PS1/PS2 upconverting is AWESOME.
-
Yay I guess, but did I really need to wait this long after paying 600 dollars. PS3 needs to learn how to give me stuff thats kinda standard right away.
-
I wanna see pics of SotC, Ico and Rez... NOW!
And make sure they're in focus - why the hell can't gaffers take photos in focus :(
:lol i don't think they know what a tripod is.

All is not lost, though, you still have the Bluetooth and games to complain about. ;)
-
I dunno, id like to think the lack of things to play is kinda the central issue.

Oh, I agree with you, it's unsettling. I just started to get into online Resistance play, so that and Calling All Cars are alright for now, but I'd like something new and exciting before Fall. I may end up importing Folks Soul in June if it ends up having English as the trailer would suggest.

bu bububuub but now you can re-play all your PS2 in OMGz upscaled HD! uh yea.
-
I have a ps2, and 90% of old games look worse in HD because of the increased detail :(
Smoothing is neat, but still.
-
The thing is I dont even WANT wizbang jaw dropping titles. I LOVE MLB 07 The Show and its the least visually impressive of the 07 offerings. I liked BULLET WITCH on 360 for cripes sake. It doesnt take much!

You may want to look into Folks Soul (Folklore) next month, then. It may have English support, and it will be cheaper than the American version ($50 at YesAsia).

maf, buy syphon filter 1 from the psn

I hope PS3 survives long enough to stop sucking. I bet it's going to be the machine to have in 2-3 years. :D
-
I haven't really been paying attention to the firmware updates (as I don't own a PS3), but did they make it so you can play PS1 games you d/l on the actual system and not just the PSP, yet?
-
599 :-\
a pricedrop of atleast 200 and i'll buy it
tiesto - yeah

They made that possible a few weeks back. You'll have to redownload the games (for free), though.

Well, the Warhawk beta is live for all the lucky bastards that were accepted.
Oh, no, I'm not bitter or anything... not all.
Sony hates me. :(
-
it didnt look that good
-
yeah, if you're interested in playing crap like Warhawk, you really *do* need a 360, since it has really GOOD versions of games like that

I like free stuff, that's all.
But, I'll probably snag a 360 this summer, whenever Blue Dragon comes out.

I wasn't bummed about being left out of the Home beta, it doesn't interest me in the slightest.

I wish they'd change the interface of the PSN store, looking at a web-page on a console feels so ghetto

They didn't send emails out this time. Check out one of the two to find out if you were accepted:
1. www.betatest.us.playstation.com
2. Log on to the Playstation Store, the download is up for those fuckers who got picked.
