<div style='font: 12pt Modern; text-align: left; '>The original plan they had was like each pack for $20 support what, 50 games? Sounds like a lot, but when you consider the # of PSX games out there, that's actually a very small portion of it. So they probably decided they might as well make it the few titles that everyone will have.

At either rate, it was a bad idea to begin with emulating on a game by game basis. There's just too many games out there to do that.</div>

[Crono]

<div style='font: 12pt Arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>Then only make the major mods for the games they want (like GT2) as those take lotsa tweaking... and they don't have time to fully tweak 500 games. But finding support for those games hould be no big problem.</div>

[Don]

<div style='font: 12pt Modern; text-align: left; '>Sony shipped over 100 million PSXs worldwide. Let's say 30 million of those are in America.

I'm not aware of any title that sold over 3 million in the US. Let's say a big title reaches 5% of the audience (1.5 million sold in US).

This means more likely than not, any title you might choose to emulate, even the big ones, people won't have it.

Assuming you emulate 10 titles that each sold 1.5 million, the chance of an average Playstation owner not having any of those 10 titles is (0.95)^10 = 59.9%.

This isn't exactly the N64 we're talking about where you can get like 2/3rd of all owners if you emulated Super Mario 64, Zelda 64, and Goldeneye.</div>

[Crono]

<div style='font: 12pt Arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>Very true, but that's part of my point. With so few PSX games that are truly "best sellers" or popular titles.... this means that they could finish emulating those in a very short time. They'd don't hafta do a large chunk of the PSX library.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", Modern; text-align: left; '>Maybe Eye = Leader? :)</div>

[G-man Joe]

<div style='font: 11pt "comic sans MS", Modern; text-align: left; '>Hmmm....similarities abound. Red Leader had a girlfriend that posted. So does Eye. Both women liked to draw, both like cute things....hmmmm. =8^)</div>

[S.Cody2]

<div style='font: 10pt "Copperplate Gothic", Modern; text-align: left; '>...For the N64.</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", Modern; text-align: left; '>But, he said "Ultimate FPS". Everybody knows that the "Ultimate FPS" is either Unreal Tourney, Quake 3, or at the very least Half-Life.</div>
