but PS3 now(compared to 60 GB) run much quieter,cooler,better wifi and imporved blue tooth connections with a better blu ray lens.So in a sense PS3 hardware has improved in the main features but the dropped some of the parts due to different reasons.

 

Which reason was it that they dropped Backwards Compatibility?

Was it the one where everyone was playing PS2 games and having a good old time?

I'll never understand why...Sony, Jesus.

 

no i think they didn't want PS3 to hinder the sales of PS2 since PS2 returns a good profit while PS3 doesn't.

 

As a consumer, that pisses me off. Sony actually went to extra trouble to keep me from having something that they gave away for free early on, just so I'd have to buy an inferior version of the previously free thing for 100 dollars. It's basically a price increase on what was at the time a 599 dollar console. You got less for your money.

Then again, "less for your money" is a reoccouring theme with Sony this generation, and thus, they are and shall forever be third with their Playstation 3.

Give me the reigns of that company 2.5 years ago, and the Wii would be sweating right now.
