I have both, well all 3, but if I didn't I still probably wouldn't.
Mainly because of reliability. Yea PSN is having this major Identity theft issue, but I think it's a freak accident, and probably won't happen again. I know the next gen MS console will fall apart on my like my 360 did multiple times. All repairs were under warrenty, but that was as big of a hassle as this PSN down thing.
I just know now to never put credit card information, or personal information on XBL or PSN.
However if I hear Sony sue more people over jailbreaking, or modifying their PS3 devices, I will. Devices shouldn't be locked like the PS3 was, and removing features like backward compatibility to save $$ and encourage PS3 gaming is just plain unfair.

Removing BC to save $$$ was totally fair since they passed all the savings and then some down to the consumer, the consumers voted for that one with their wallets, as for the suing over jailbreak the guy distributed the hack thats the problem, which basically means he gives it to pirates, and if you think all info should be shared you consider how bad it would be if every terrist and angry person knew how to make bombs, dirty bombs, nukes ect.
|
you can easily go online and see how to make bombs, but comparing bombs to hacking your ps3? seriously.
but i wish sony would have had liek always two models. ONE has BC, while the other doesn't. Screw this 60 gb to 180 gb or whatever stuipd hard drive shit. hard drives anyone can purchase. removing bc is somethign else entirely
|
Not dirty bombs not nukes, and that had nothing to do with the hack I was talking about distributing information to people who you know WILL misuse it, as for the BC two skus I agree with you on that but Sony didn't feel that enough people cared about it so it is what it is, as long as ps2 is still selling (for the price that a bc model would cost extra) I don't really care
|
When Sony removed BC, price did not drop. So the extra $10 it costs to include BC (probably less) goes right to Sony's Pocket. A new PS2 does not cost <$10.
You are right in the fact that most people didn't care about it, but many people do. My PS2 is broken, so Iwould have really appreciated a BC PS3.
|
What are you talking about the price dropped by 100 between the BC sku and the non-BC one and if you wanted a BC ps3 why didn't you buy one?
