In the short run this is going to piss off a lot of people who truly want BC or provide fodder for people who feign interest in buying a PS3 and now won't because of the loss of BC. In reality, (and as much as I hate to admit it) since Sony has already started down the road of losing BC, they should do what they are doing and finish it off. One SKU would get things moving back toward where they should be. If Sony moves to one SKU and one SKU ONLY on a world-wide basis (other than bundles or colors and such), they will join Nintendo. That will leave only MS with a 3-SKU lineup going forward. That would certainly put pressure on MS to consolidate with one SKU as well and would be beneficial to all gamers and developers going forward.
