Steve Foster, Sales & Marketing Manager (Distributor Markets) of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, was in Cape Town last week and we sat down for an informal chat about all things PlayStation. Lana-Jane Pike, Marketing Executive of Ster-Kinekor Games — local distributors for PlayStation — was also there.

GN: Are you going to continue backwards compatibility with software emulators?

SF: The only way in which software updates will continue to support backwards compatibility is on PlayStation One — for downloadable PlayStation One games. PlayStation 2 will not be supported.

GN: So you won't be able to play any PlayStation 2 games at any time (in the future) on the 40GB models?

SF: That is correct.
