Is it 2007? Seems like I stepped into a time warp. I though delusional fanboys had finally accepted the reality of the situation. Their isn't going to be PS3 sales explosion with the release of a slim model. Between the Wii and 360, a good deal of the PS2's casual market is already gone. The PS3 isn't getting out 3rd place. Just deal with already.

Secondly, I still can't believe people are buying the BC story. I read the IGN story. It talks about how Sony has Emotion Engine emulator. Unfortunately, they seemed to have forgotten that the Emotion Engine was never present in the PAL 60GB PS3's or the North American 80GB PS3's. Sony has been emulating the Emotion Engine since early 2007, they can't emulate the GS. The GS has more than double the memory bandwidth (48GB per second) of the RSX (20.8 GB per second). The GS is what Sony needs to address not the EE. Until they figure out how the emulate the GS, BC on the current PS3 models isn't happening.
