What he said. You should've done your research before purchasing the 40 GB.

I hate bashing sony but leaving out Backwards Compatability was the worst thing they've done with the PS3.

It was only on the 40GB. There is Backwards compatibility on every other model. The 80GB will be coming back out soon, and will have BC.

Agreed, especially after they promised it. I think a no BC option is a good idea as long as it is clearing marked since some people don't care at all about BC and they shouldn't have to pay for it. But, they must have a BC option out there for all those that want it and expect it after what they claimed at E3 and was able to produce.

Rumors are that the upcoming 80gb PS3 from sony will not be BC.

That rumor is wrong- the 80 GB coming with the MGS 4 bundle will be the exact same as the one that was out before, BC and all.

the 40 gig does not have backwards compatability. Only the 80 and 60 gig can play ps2 games. But the 60 gig can play the most ps2 games

Yeah, just check sony's online store. I'm sure this 80gb will be discontinued in no time and once again we'll be left without BC.

What are you talking about there has always been an option to buy a console with BC...ALWAYS...

Now if your country does not provide that particular model that has BC then you should not really blame Sony, but your countries demand for the product... just like if I was to go to another country and try to get some Mcdonalds... I am sure there would be some things that are not on the other countries menu but are on the American menu...
