you cant use the fact that a PS2 emulator *could* one day happen as a point against anyone complaining BC has been removed. It may happen, but even if they are planning it, it could take years to be anywhere near 100%, by this time the appeal of playing PS2 games will be greatly reduced, just as playing PS1 games is now.

Wii/360 fans aren't really creating the negative hype, im sure sony fans themselves are pretty disappointed, myself included mainly because i want to see the PS3 succeed and a cheaper model is a great step towards that, sadly i do feel that losing PS2 BC will detract from the appeal of the new SKU.

NJ5, i thought that PS1 emulation was also partially handled by hardware in the PS2? Only the PS3 fully does it by software. I could be wrong though.
