Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) just announced the availability of the latest version of the PS3 firmware, Version 1.80.

This is a significant upgrade as the system will now have the ability to upscale PlayStation and PlayStation 2 games, as well as DVD movies up to full 1080p HD resolution.

So bust out those PS1 and PS2 games, dust off the ol’ DVD collection and get ready for a dramatic enhancement in picture quality PS3 owners. A feature like this is normally reserved for Read more…
