I'm hoping that my wild assumption that this will be a BC model is true, because I will officially refuse to buy a PS3 if it is not.

Why the ******** is Sony being so dense about this? Seriously, it's not like they didn't make model that had full backwards compatibility. There's nothing wrong with the 60gb model.

I'm half expecting now for Sony to stop supporting the 60gb model with the updates and such at the rate they're going.

*Disclaimer: Jawes is in an anti-Sony mood.

What really pisses me off is that they would only lose $12 a system by putting in the EE from the 60GB model and taking out the WiFi. Ethernet is much better for gaming and transfers, anyway.

That's why we got our 60gb off of Ebay. We did not want to get a PS3 if it did not have the BC with PS2. It's silly, since they have the emulators for PSone games on the 80gb. Why not throw in the PS2 emulator as well?

the reason they are not putting in BC is because they want people to buy more ps3 games than ps2, makes sense, but...i'm just gonna get me a 60gb then get a 250gb HDD, though i imagine people are gonna be raising hell about this

ps3 games=more money
more money=profit
profit=happy sony
happy sony=happy gamers
happy gamers= ...well, you get the idea

The missing link, however...

ps2 games on ps3 = more people buying PS3s = more chances to sell PS3 software = more money

Sony needs as many consoles on the market as they can get. There are a lot of people after CoD 4 and GTAIV for PS2, but they will not buy a PS3 that will not play their PS2 games. And given that a lot of big name games are on 360, Sony is losing ground by people expanding into Microsoft's grasp.

All I'm saying is that Sony will sell MORE PS3s if they get their BC s**t together, and even though people will play PS2 games on their console, they would be able to lock people in when they release games ONLY for the PS3 rather than make everything in the PS3 library available elsewhere.

*shrug* I have a ps2. It works-beautifully. Ergo if I get a ps3 with no BC I won't seriously care.

UGH!!!

You guys realize that they're doing this crap just to milk the Ps2 for all it's worth.

Depends on how what kind of modding skills and duct tape are available.
Otherwise, I believe that's still only for certain games.

Microsoft wrote patches FOR INDIVIDUAL GAMES to get the BC up. I thought I heard that it was around 98% right now...

You know there's a problem when you can list the games compatible... I can't play MGS2...
