| smallville said: Sony should write front of the box in bold letters "THIS MODEL DOES NOT PLAY PS2 GAMES". Instead of that small print they add on the back of the box. |
From a PR standpoint yes, but from a business standpoint, it won't happen. You can be damn sure that PS3 sales numbers have been inflated at least 3-4% because of people who bought a 40-gig, tried to play a PS2 game on it, then immediately traded it back in for a 60-80gig model.
Come to think of it, I wouldn't be at all surprised if this was Sony's mysterious reason for removing BC from this model, since we know removed the Emotion Engine only saved a few dollars.
