What is this guide about?

To play PS2 and PS3 games on your SGS3 and other mobile devices. It will show you what is required to do this and how to set it all up. Its very simple to do but I do expect you to know how to install programs on a computer, plug cables in and change settings in your PS3. This method does not use any illegal software or emulators.

Notes:

I found out how to do this by accident. I was looking around for ways to record my gameplay using a video capture device. The options were expensive but thankfully there is a cheap and easy option. Its called EzCAP 116 USB 2.0 Video Capture. It only costs £19.99 and comes from the UK. For USA its $31.95. HD video capture devices are alot more expensive but it is not needed for what we are using it for.

So here are the requirements that you need to play PS2/PS3 games on a SGS3.

1. PS2 or PS3 with wireless controller

2. Windows laptop or computer

3. Wifi N Router (computer must be connected with LAN cable)

4. Ezcap 116 USB 2.0 Video Capture

5. Playstation analogue cable (S-Video or RCA)

6. Video capture software (comes with the EzCAP)

7. Splashtop remote desktop (Currently half price)

This should be relatively inexpensive if you have most of the items above already. I only needed to buy the Ezcap and Splashtop app. Total spend is £23.

Ok lets start.

The first thing to do is download and install the Splashtop remote desktop app on your mobile and the Splashtop streamer on your computer.

The next thing to do is install the Ezcap drivers and video capture software supplied on the disc and plug the Ezcap in to your computer. Then plug in the playstation cable into your PS2/PS3 and Ezcap.

Now turn your PS2/PS3 on. Turn your TV on also if you've got a PS3. Now on your computer run the video capture software which is Arcsoft Showbiz and press Capture on the top left. The capture module will open in a new window.

Set the Video Input to S-Video or Composite for the cable you used. The Audio device to Line (USB EMP Audio Device). Then Press Device Settings and set your video standard to PAL_I for UK, NTSC_433 for USA and press OK. If you can see a blank square grey screen in the capture module then your Ezcap is working correctly. If not then unplug and plug the Ezcap back in and press refresh.

(Skip the next part if your using a PS2)

PS3 Setup:

If your doing this with a PS3 and your using a HDTV then you need to change the display settings to output video and sound through the AV MULTI/SCART before you will see the picture show on your computer. The PS3 display settings to set are RGB, Standard and 4:3. For audio set it to AV MULTI.

As soon as you set the video output setting to AV MULTI/SCART then RGB, you should now see your PS3 display on your computer through the capture module. Press X to accept setting. Continue the display settings as above.

PS2 Setup:

It already outputs analogue video so nothing to set. Just turn it on and the PS2 will display in the capture module on your computer.

Now that you have your PS2/PS3 displaying on your computer. The fun now begins.

Start Splashtop on your mobile and your computer should be shown. Make sure the resolution is set to 1280x720 in the settings. Now select your computer to start the stream. Your computer's display should be mirrored on your mobile. Double tap on the capture module's video window to go to full screen. Put a game disc in and start the fun.

The Splashtop app allows you pinch zoom, so you can zoom in to fill out the S3's screen if you want.

The Sixaxis Dualshock 3 has a good range so you don't have to be near the PS3 or in the same room. Thats the beauty of this method. Freedom to play anywhere in your house. You will need to be within good range of your wifi router though. As for the PS2, you can get RF wireless controllers. I've used one, one floor below where my PS2 is and it works fine with no lag.

So thats it. You basically have a portable PS2 or PS3 with this method. What this really needs though is a Gameklip to mount your mobile onto the controller to make it even more portable and convenient. It should give you the portable console experience.
