Many PS3 owners were hoping that the PS3 1.7 firmware update would open many doors to old and classic PlayStation games but the new list shows that it still veers largely towards the PSP with many titles still only for the handheld.

There is other news however, namely the inter-savability of games which are playable on both PS3 and PSP. You can save a game and continue to play on the other format, and then go back again as you wish.

The downloads will become available tomorrow, April 26, and fans will find just 11 games available for the PS3, listed below:

•A.IV. Evolution Global (Artdink)
•Arc the Land (Sony)
•Bishibashi Special (Konami)
•Ganbare Morikawa-kun Ni-go (Sony)

•Ore no Shi wo Koete Yuke (Sony)
