"PlayStation Portal Hacked to Emulate PSP Games by Google Engineers"
TL;DR
Two Google engineers have hacked the PlayStation Portal to run emulated PSP games locally using the PPSSPP emulator, allowing games like Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories to be played on the handheld device. The project, which took over a month of work, also successfully tested Minecraft and Tekken 6, with the emulator running smoothly at 2x resolution and 100 percent speed. While there are no immediate plans for a release, this development could make the PS Portal more appealing to potential buyers by expanding its gaming capabilities beyond just streaming PlayStation 5 games.
