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.

 


Dang ... I wonder if that counts as two sales ... ioi, TheSource?  

 

It does.  None of the big 3 'subtract' one from their numbers when it's sold back.

 



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?
