now my question is... if this alleged ps2 download works on a 40gb PS3 (ie no PS2 hardware at all, purely software emulation), why wouldn't that same emulator be usable for retail PS2 disks? unless theyre making a custom emulator executable per game which would cost a lot of resources...
for the xbox, it's just the same backwards compatibility emulator; what they're serving up is just an image of the retail disk.
