Nah ... Sony wants us to think paying $399 for a BR player that plays games - but not PS1 or PS2 games - is great, but if they added BC, I would consider it. However, based on the current offering of games, no, it's not worth it.

Look at the Wii's lineup and look at the 360's lineup - stellar. The PS3 lineup? Not so much. So, kids will fool their parents into buying one because most kids on their block have them - or they see Playstation and are totally uninformed ... or they want a cheap BR player.

Sony can't offer a PS3 with BC for that cheap - and it's killing them. It's their own fault to bet the bank on BR - and use their console and brand to push it. SMH at this decision ...
