People trade in their ps2 games? I thought they were all playing them still seeing how people kicked up a fuss about the ps3 not being backwards compatible.

people must still be buying those games traded in. at least up until now. so yes since the launch of the ps3 until now there has still been a market for ps2 games in the United States.

So, it's impossible that people were/are still buying PS2 consoles to play their bought PS2 games right?

I never said if they played on ps2 or ps3. I am merely sating that a market for ps2 games has exsited in the US since the launch of the ps3. Nothing more nothing less. You seemed to imply that people had stopped playing them.
