8 PS2 Favorites Coming To PS4 Tomorrow, More On The Way!

We knew that PS2 emulation was headed to PS4 in one form or another, but we certainly didn’t expect something so soon!

Are you as huge a fan of PS2 classics like as Grand Theft Auto III, Twisted Metal: Black, and Dark Cloud as we are… AND happen to own a PS4?

In a tremendous announcement made by Sony, starting tomorrow, PS2 Classics are headed to the PlayStation Store!  This isn’t like their traditional emulation tactics in the past, either, as they will be adding trophy support, the games will be up-rendered to 1080p, they’ll offer Remote Play, Live Broadcast, Share Play, Activity Feeds, and Second Screen support as well!  In other words, all of the games will be taking FULL advantage of the many benefits the PS4 has to offer (aside from much of that extra power, of course).

For those unfamiliar with these benefits, Remote Play allows you to continue your PS4 gameplay on specific devices, such as the PlayStation Vita, as long as it’s connected to your home Wi-Fi network, Live Broadcast allows you to use a streaming service, such as Twitch, to share your gameplay with others over the internet, Share Play allows you to share your screen with one of your PSN friends so they may help you throughout the game, Activity Feeds are a social media-like tool that shows what games your friends have been playing, and Second Screen allows for other functions, such as a game manual, to appear on the PlayStation Vita or PlayStation app.

The full list of games available, starting tomorrow, are:

-Dark Cloud — $14.99
-Grand Theft Auto III — $14.99
-Grand Theft Auto: Vice City — $14.99
-Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas — $14.99
-Rogue Galaxy — $14.99
-The Mark of Kri — $14.99
-Twisted Metal: Black — $9.99
-War of the Monsters — $9.99

The following are all the games that will be available to play at the PlayStation Experience at San Francisco this weekend.  Notice there are others on this list?  This means there are more on the horizon!
