www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=8078754&postcount=1683 No chrome strip No memory card reader Smaller 40 GB hard drive 2 USB ports instead of 4 No ethernet cable included in the box No PS2 backwards compatibilty --- If the other ones were bad (they were bad), the last one must have screwed us all. Dude, no PS2 BC? Do you know how many sales that'll turn away? The one thing Sony (might've) done right they hammer us to where we were before. Is Sony TRYING to be 3rd? Come on...

The backwards compatibility thing is BS. It will use software emulation that is included in the firmware updates....

So I'm the troll, but what about you guys, who have contributed with nothing to the thread except insults?

 I've just been quietly sitting back reading your posts trying to degrade the PS3 and Sony at every turn and it's getting retarded.  If I were to do the same in another part of these forums, I'd be banned by now.  Plain and simple.  You (and I'd probably place sieanr) at the top of the list of "naysayers" on the Sony Forum.  Have you ever thought about taking a break from even looking at this forum?  Maybe go away for a week (at least) and you might become a happier person rather than some croggy old bat yelling at the kids next door for being too loud and stepping on your grass.  It's why I said you better be gettin' paid.  Otherwise, you lead a sad existance if bashing electronics and a company is "fun" for you.



It seems the mods need help with this forum.  I have zero tolerance for trolling, platform criticism (Rule 4), and poster bad-mouthing (Rule 3.4) and you will be reported.

My point was that a website can say what it wants, but that doesn't mean it should believed as truth.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

 Honestly, I've only put my PS2 discs in the PS3 once... just to see if they work.  Other than that, I've done zero BC on the PS3.

If there is no BC, this certainly won't help getting PS2 owners to switch over.



Never argue with an idiot.  They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

 I care. I have now played 5 PS2 games on my PS3 and there are still some coming out that I want to play.

People dont care whats in it. The thing could have a 56k modem in it and it will still sell well. People want PS3 but a lot arent into the $500 price point. I really dont think the cut will have real big effect until any big name games (FF/MGS) come out.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.
