PSP Remaster Series Announced for PlayStation 3

I think the fact it uses Ad-Hoc Party strongly suggests it should be cross compatible with genuine PSPs connected through Ad-Hoc Party. It's less clear if local Ad-hoc with a PSP would work, hmm.


That's actually the clear part. Is says "Ad-hoc mode gameplay will also be supported".
What isn't specified is that includes remote PSPs connected to Ad-Hoc Party.
 
Being able to play with PSP players would be awesome.. Is that what is implied by the Ad Hoc Party stuff?
 
It is confirmed that saves are cross compatible, so you can put your PSP saves into PS3 and continue the game on the big screen, then put it back into your PSP and continue on the go

So can anyone say if they added any extra graphics other than better resolution watching the video, to me it just seems like th eonly improvements is better resolution, the models and etc look the same, it isn't like how GoW Collection was with better models. If this is the case then shouldn't every PSP game played on NGP look like this (as NGP upsclales exactly 4X through software emulation).

I think it's most likely they are talking about Ad hoc party being used in the way it's always been used, rather than a way of connecting local systems together wirelessly. If they've made the effort to have compatible save files with PSP, I'm assuming they'll want to do the same thing with the networking.
 
looks like a very nice dreamcast game with some modern enhancements.


This is awesome!

If they have a PS2 game store ready for the NGP launch, this thing will be the best system ever.


edit: 3D support? lol. why are they still trying...unless its catching on or something
 
Omfg my waiting pays off. Dissidia, MGS5!

Sony mentioned that 20% of the KZ3 demo downloads were for the 3D version. Of course some may have made a mistake when downloading, but that percentage is still surprising.

now think hd,anti aliasing and zero dithering :O

For some reason there's a bunch of 1920x1088 Peace Walker shots out there, but they all have some god-awful scaling algorithm applied to them. Must be a PC emulator thing.

I really want to know if NGP can upscale every PSP game and make it look as good as this

Here is a video of Monster Hunter 3 on NGP, can anyone tell if it looks any better, it hard to tell as it's ofscreen capture

Now that you mention it, trophy support is confirmed for NGP games no? If so, NGP ver of MH3 will support trophies and I guess the PS3 ver will as well.

not that I care what's in or out as long as it doesn't affect me, but--

that's not a very meaningful statistic and of course, sony is pushing 3D, so they would word it that way.

People connected to PSN are already a subset of PS3 owners, people with 3DTVs are subset of people online and I'd think that a 3DTV owner would be likely to go online with their PS3. if that number is 200,000 out of a million demo downloads, that's still not too impressive to me.
At least, not indicative of a trend gaining momentum.

it's hard to parse out everything that's packed into that stat :lol

It's a disc release on PS3. I would assume that it has to support trophies, right?

Don't you get it, you don't need to re-release PSP games on NGP if the NGP can upscale on it's own, with the NGP being exactly 4X the res of PSP, upscaling will look great on NGP. Nirolak said on the other thread that it seems Monster Hunter HD hasn't even got AA, it's just upscaled, so I assume NGP would be able to do all this without even having to rebuy the game, just play your PSN version.

I just watched that video, I actually think that is the HD remaster, not the vanilla version. It looks too clean to be a simple 4x upscale.

I hope Sony confirm it at E3, and all HD remasters either come with an NGP version on the disc or a download code for the NGP version.

Valkyria Chronicles 2+3 please. Oh and maybe Ore no Imouto. Those three and that's it. I'll be happy.
VC3 at least, since it probably won't get a western release otherwise. Final Fantasy Type-0 would also be a perfect fit.

Wouldn't mind seeing the Falcom games either, but that seems pretty unlikely to me. It might be the only way to get Zero/Ao no Kiseki, but the question is whether or not Falcom would bother porting them. They already have the PC versions in higher resolution right?

You're getting mixed up between upscaling and upressing. These PSP remakes are being rendered at native 1080p instead of 272p, PSP games on NGP will still be rendered at 272p but will then be stretched to fit 544p, they won't look much better as they're still PSP resolution. However NGP may also add anti aliasing to PSP games which will reduce the jaggies.

The textures are definitely better on the PS3 version tho. I don't think it's just upscaling the geometry resolution.

Oh shit, I thought NGP will upscale through emulation like PC emulators do, if that is not the case then my bad, oh well
 
I dunno about you guys but this right here is the megaton I've been waiting for from E3. All they have to do now is tell me that the NGP won't cost me a stupid amount of money and my year is pretty much MADE.

I can't tell, PSP just looks more blurry and NGP just looks more sharp. What textures look improved to you.

All of them? :D

If the textures were the very same as the PSP version, they would look terrible when stretched to cover all the extra pixels of higher res geometry.
 
I'd snap up Valkyria Chronicles 2 & 3 in a heartbeat if they gave them this treatment.

Promising news though with regards to offering a USP for PSP & PS3 owners.

It's hard to tell if they're improved as the resolution of the PSP version is so low it masks any detail in the textures.

Looks to me like they are even changing some of the geometry. Look at the tree outside the window. There are no branches in PSP version, just a bunch of leaves.
