^In other words, they profit by "flogging a dead horse"? It's been two years since the PS3 is out!

Why wouldn't a consumer buy a PS3 with BC if they want the PS2 games so badly?

I would not refer to the PS2 as a "dead horse" when it is outselling the PS3 and 360 over the past two years.  If there is still demand for a non-HD system with a huge library, why would they ever stop selling it?

sony is not going to drop the price on the PS2, forget about it. the fact that it still selling thousands a week still 8 years since launch, and also that its been the same price since the slim came out, forget about a price cut for it

well then, saying the ps3 had ?zero chance? to sell more than the ps2 is still a prety bold prediction.

Speaking about the ps2, how are software sales? I wonder how many of those ps2 sold are replacements... What's the active ps2 userbase these days? 60M?
