So i heard..

you cant play ps2 games on the 40gig ps3?is this true?I havent had the chance to test it, thanks in advance forany answersbigUBERpilot

It's true.

why the hell would they make it like that.damn thats lame.bigUBERpilot

Because it costs money. You can always use your PS2 or buy one, but yeah, I agree with you.

yeh the geniuses at sony decided to pull out the Emotion Engine out of the PS3 to save 20 bux building a console

EE is the processor needed to play PS2 gamessnake_9909

i highly doubt they would discontinue BC to save 20 bucks. where did you hear that it only costs 20 bucks for the EE.

Lol, it would cost them more than 20 dollars..... thus the massive price difference between the consoles. (also obviously due to the HDD size difference)

You know how much $20 will accumulates to? Imagine if Sony sold 1 million PS3 with b/c that will equates to 20 million dollars loss not including the loss they're already taking with including the blu-ray drive. Besides, I doubt the Emotion Engine cost Sony $20 to build. It would cost more.

Based on your post I'm going to guess that you do in fact have a Playstation 2. If this is correct, please explain why b/c (or in your case, the lack thereof) is an issue to you.
