They should put 'Warning: 33% failure rate' on the box also... Its common knowledge that the PS3 doesn't play PS2 games so no offence but its your fault... |
The 80gb, the 60gb and the 20gb PS3s play PS2 games - the 40gb doesn't play them. You don't *think* that would be confusing? I could see if the units didn't come with hard drives, but they all do - and just one of them can't play PS2 games.
The PS brand was always about BC. To drop it matters to tons of consumers.
The only one I'd buy is the 60gb one for the FULL BC. I am fed up with these half-efforts by MS and Sony at BC. Give me something that plays my old skool games without taking up much real estate.
And to the folks that say just keep your PS2 - that makes NO SENSE. Maybe, if you have games on a hard drive in your PS2, and truthfully, if someone is not impressed with the current lineup, but have tons of PS2 games, giving them BC is a given these days. The Wii has it - the 360 - with a HD - has it.
This isn't the first time Sony took something away from gamers and said it wasn't necessary. Rumble - so last gen - comes to mind. Now, folks are flocking to get Sixasis with rumble ...
