Forums - Sony - Waiting for BC on ps3

It's no more trolling than creating a thread on a feature the system doesn't have (currently.)  Would you rather I have said: "I won't buy a 360 until I can get one with 120GB hard drive and no HDMI?"  This is likely something that is never going to happen just like the OP.

There would be nothing wrong with saying that.  It's just stating you're preference.  A preference many people would have, just not as common a preference as people wanting PS3 BC.

why not just buy a ps2 and forget about the ps3 until they actually have a few games you will enjoy? seems simple enough, you said yourself you want to play those ps2 games and not ps3 games. lol

 

Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner. I know for a fact that Neos is one of the hugest Wii fanboys on this site and I doubt that he gives a damn about BC on PS3 at all. I can post some of his qoutes slamming PS3 if you'd like.

 

Yeah I agree with splatman1981. He always can catch a PS3 later.

Then what's he going to do later when Sony decides to not add in BC because the BC isn't in there?  Make another thread about it?  What if they do add it and say that they heard the outcry?  Will the next post be about how it should have been in the system the whole time?  I'm guessing the latter.  From the posts in this thread, he doesn't want a PS3 at all (no interest in the games) and just posted this to "rile up" the forum.

 

What if sony decides to put it in the PS3 and he gets a PS3?   Then make a thread about how much he loves his PS3 and thinks Wii is crap?  You will fall in love with him?  You are going to see him as a good guy?  I can do the same bro.

I know why you don't like him (no hard feeling Neos) Neos trolled before about PS3 so this thread must be totally a troll thread of him!!  Come on chill out a bit. Add me on your PSN (konnichiwa) and let we together have a match of Motorstorm and push all our contendors from the hills thinking they are Neos...Ok?

To sum up this thread. Some people don't want a PS3 because it can't do what they want it to.

(anything i missed?)

And don't want a workaround.

 

Please find me a workaround for this situation:

I have tons of PAL PS2 games but no PS2.

I want a PS3 to be able to play these games.

That's all, kkthx.

You know not all people have money to give away for something that should be there in the first place. Because when you buy a PS2 you'll also have to buy component cables (assuming you have an HDTV) and memory cards.

Also, many people don't like having a lot of consoles hooked up, for example to play with my PS2 i have to unplug my Wii.

 

 get a system selecter.... you people are crazy there is a solution to every problem......

 

you people are like girls and bitch so much about stupid things..

What would that system selector be?

That wasn't directed at you, it was directed to Neos.  But you could buy a PS2 and a PS3.  But you already own a PS3, so your post is irrelevant, and I don't see why you replied.

@DMeisterJ

Because if you find a workaround for this i'm buying another PS3.
And i'm totally honest.

Just get a 60GB on ebay, its what I did. I traded in my 20GB, got a 60GB and now have full backwards compatibility on everything, easy.
i don't want 2nd handed things.
Then why the thread? Sounds like Oppositional defiant disorder. You're not looking for a solution to the problem except blaming someone else, you apparently know the situation is not remediable but you decided to post anyway...

The only thing that doesn't match is the perceived self-hatred (though this could be a method of masking such behavior by lashing out at others to hide it)

• Arguing with adults
• Having frequent temper tantrums
• Seeking revenge
• Actively defying requests
• Refusing to follow rules
• Blaming others for their own mistakes
• Deliberately annoying other people
• Easily angered, resentful, vindictive, or spiteful

"Teens with ODD show their defiant and negative behaviors by being persistently stubborn. They are frequently unwilling to compromise or give in to adults. Patients may deliberately ignore orders, argue, and push limits far beyond acceptable standards"

That could be used to describe a vast majority of teens though...

So what was the point of this thread again? Oh right, trolling. You know the solution is not within your self restricted reach, you are fishing for responses trying to help re-enforce said restrictions, and you are actively trying to discredit someone else (or something else: Sony and those who already bought the system?) by starting the thread.

There are multiple solutions to this problem:
1. Buy a PS2.
2. Buy a BC PS3.
3. Move on, quit worrying about it, and quit trolling.

It's obvious though that you really want a PS3, otherwise you would not be posting so much about your dislikes about it. You most likely dislike the fact that you must actually pay forward some cash to enjoy this experience and you're seeking an excuse to justify not purchasing said product.
I take this as a personal insult. Your mazda is ugly

I was calling out for people that are waiting as well.

Why is anyone taking this thread seriously?
A. The OP is a blatant troll
B. The TC has shown that he will respond to serious counterargumentation with personal attacks.
C. The TC has announced that the purpose of the thread was not to look for a solution but to attract people to agree with him about the problem.
D. The TC appears to have deliberately adopted self-defeating criteria.
--D2. If Neos truly only wants a PS3 that has BC and is not second-hand, I am sure that there are plenty of 60GB PAL PS3s lying around places that have not been used by others. I personally would be able to get a 60GB US PS3 like that, so I'm sure if he tries hard he will succeed.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

Exactly.

If any of you wants a PS3 with BC, just bribe someone in Sony.
