If you've ever seen an emulator mature before you'll see that there are two types of games that take the longest time to become perfectly emulated, obscure games and games which use the system to its fullest. For the most part I don't think people are worried about obscure games ... Now, many of the best (or at least best looking) games on a system use all of the features of the hardware to get the best performance out of it; at the same time these developers will look for little tricks in order to get optimal performance out of the system. Some developers have found insane things (like an ability to run a process on a sound processor/input controller) that are nearly impossible to predict ... As long as they don't have perfect emulation there will be several of the best games left off of the compatibility list; on top of that I would expect that if they have 50% of the games emulated then less than 50% of good games will work.

I like backward compatability but if a console does not have it then oh well. I just think its messed up that the US/Japan have backwards compatability buy not really Europe.

Does anyone know if Microsoft has updated their supported games recently? I'm still ticked off I can't play Karoake Revolution on my 360.

Does anyone know when Sony will have the whole Home thing ready?

Using Verizon FIOS I get 20 Mbps download 5 Mbps upload for $50/month. They have a lower option of 5 Mbps download and 2 Mbps upload for $40/month. Sadly, not available in all areas yet.
