Well cool. If it turns out the lack of backward compatibility rumor is fake, then this makes the PS3 much more appealing to me, at least until I'm sure the 360 is failure free. If it's not backward compatible at all I of course wouldn't even consider it. I'm in a pretty small apartment without much free space, and I need to be able to play my PS2 games. For one thing I still play many of my PS2 games on a regular basis. I love replaying DQVIII. For another, I'm still buying a new PS2 game every couple months.

BC was also one of the main attractions of the ps3 for me. There were a lot of ps2 titles that I missed that I've been catching up on in the ps3 droughts. For example, I actually never played GoW 1&2 or MGS1/2/3 until this year. Boy, did I not know what I was missing!

Well, that's not entirely true. I had a demo of MGS1 back in the 90s (still do actually) that I loved, but I never got mgs1 at the time because I was broke. I then never got MGS2 having missed MGS1, then MGS3 because I missed MGS2. I finally caved when I found MGS3 for $9.99 at K-Mart back in December. Bought it, loved it, then bought MGS1/2 on ebay. Three of the best purchases I have ever made. :D
