PS2 titles coming to PSN

MCV Staff 22nd September 2009 Business News

In what would be the most significant development in the history of the PlayStation Network, Sony is planning on bringing the entire PS2 back-catalogue to its digital content platform PSN, MCV can reveal.

The move adds credibility to the many cynics who questioned Sony’s insistence that its decision to remove PS2 backwards compatibility from PS3 was a cost-cutting move and not a strategic one.

Such a move would likely be unpopular at retail as it would likely have a negative effect on the sale of PS2 boxed titles.

The information comes from a leaked document obtained by MCV.
