Whoa! Don't get that PS3 yet! - Click!
Someone at Sony must think that everyone take the short bus to work as they once again tried to fool consumers into buying the REALLY expensive model! Where backwards compatibility was available for all PS2 models, the PS3 has NO backwards compatibity for there 20 and 40 GB models and limited backwards compatibility for the 60 and 80 GB models.This was SO much easier back when there was ONE model per each competing company. They may as well be selling computers instead of videogame systems, cause now you have to buy fans, memory, AN EXTRA CONTROLLER (Remember when gaming systems came with TWO controllers? I wouldn't be surprised if NO controller came with the next generation of gaming systems.)
It is no longer a gaming system, it is a COMPUTER. All of them are like that. PS3, XBOX 360, and the Wii.
Perhaps there should be something to change the way we develop electronics, especially with all the e-waste that shouldn't or can't be tossed out with the rest of the trash.
Even after the PS3 was released on the market over a year ago, many game publishers are still putting out PS2 games.
Games are suppost to be fun. And they are relatively inexpensive since outdoor activities are becoming financially impossible for many people due to outragous gas prices. But if the brown goods market is clueless and whines about why they didn't sell X number of videogame systems, they should talk to the guy who let a barrel of Light Sweet Crude bubble over $100 like it was some joke.
They'll figure it out when the holdays are over.
