    Sony's been telling us over and over that the PS3 and PSP would connect to each other, saying grandiose things like "the PSP will be a virtual PS3." But, they haven't physically demonstrated the ability to. At Tokyo Game Show, users were able to play downloaded PS1 and PSP games on PSPs, theoretically delivered via PS3. Mysteriously, Sony didn't actually show the interface on how the games would be delivered. IGN interviewed a TGS booth babe and didn't get very far:IGN: "...Are you telling me you can't actually show me the PSP downloading a demo from the PS3." Booth Babe: "You can play it here!" IGN: "Yeah, but the whole point of the demo is that this game came from that big machine to run on this little machine." Booth Babe: "Um ... Technical Demo for PlayStation 3 and PSP!" IGN: "But do you understand that it's not really a demo if you don't demonstrate anything." Booth Babe: "I'm sorry."Check out the rest of the interview at IGN. Hai!
