Should it be necessary to have a PS2, PS3 AND PS4 hooked up all at once to play?

The Cell processor is the main reason for the high cost of PS3. If PS3 launched at $499 without Cell and with BC, I would bet that it would've sold so much better. Sony didn't ditch PS2 BC because it proved to be worthless. They did it to lower costs in order to alleviate their other poor decisions with the PS3. Now PS4 has to suffer because Sony is smart enough to ditch the Cell processor. I'm not saying having no BC is a deal breaker, but having it is a GOOD selling point, if not major for others.

I have no clue why you're insisting. Having a PS2 cpu & gpu on the PS3 board did add to the price tag.

The PS3 was pricy because of the Cell, XDR RAM, wifi, bluray, HD, PS2 BC.... And the last one was the weakest link.

Again, if they didn't use the Cell, PS2 BC could've been achieved much more easily without much of a price tag. Basically, what I'm saying is it's Sony's own fault that PS2 BC was removed, and so early on too. I'm only insisting because you were implying in your original quote that BC is worthless, and I'm saying it's not.
