Do Not Want : PS2 games

Right now I have a handful of games to finish before I even think about playing Crysis, Ratchet and Clank, Uncharted, or CoD 4.

I have no interest in PS2 games whatsever, that generation has passed me by.

Stop trying to use the backwards compatability thing against Sony. If people want it that bad they can spend 100 dollars more and get 40 gigs more hd space.

If BC is not important then why are all the most hyped PS3 games sequels to PS2 games. MGS 4, FF13, GT5, RnC, and all the others. Cows seemed to love those games so much on PS2 that they consider the sequels to be the best upcomming games on PS3. So why would the general fans not want to be able to play them anymore?

face it the BC is not needed is just damage control. I still enjoy last gen games on the 360. Just because the gen changed did not make those last gen games any less great.

Or maybe he doesn't want to pay another $100 for something that should have been included with PS3.

since when do you have to have both consoles hooked up at once or on the same tv. last time I checked you could unplug a console from the tv and hook another one up. not hard to do.

Uh, I have a 60 Gb ps3 and I have a ps2 hooked into one of my TVs. As it is I'm gonna take both with me soon so I can play GH2 as well as HS. And, I like to be able to save my ps2 finish games without having to buy a ps2 HD.

Fanboys are truly a spectacle:

Nintendo announces no H
Sheeps: HD SUCKS!

MS announces no next gen format:
Lems:You see, you see..we dont NEED a next gen format! DO YOU SEE?!

MS announces no HDMI and no 1080p:
Lems: HDMI is DVI with audio, and no better than VGA. And the human eye cant even tell teh difference between 1080p! We're paying a premium, but please, MS, ONLY GIVES US WHAT WE NEED, nothing more!

Sony announces rumble in 1990s:
Cows: Wow, truly revolutionary! When the heart beats in the rumble Im ottally immersed!

Sony Announces no rumble for PS3:
Cows: Rumble? Never cared for it. Never told the difference.

Sony announces FULL BC in PS3:
Cows: HAHA Lems, and your last gen software BC! LOL!

Sony announces Software BC:
Cows: Ignore posts insulting them.

Sony announces NO BC at ALL in 40GB:
Cows: Do not want PS2 games anyway, SOOOO many PS3 games. clas.sics and genre defiuning games of last gen dont matter this gen, this is NEXT GEN!!!

I hate you all.-JayWong-

Excellent, I love the way you point outthe generalhipocracy. No one group is better than anyone else, ain't that the truth.

wow it takes a whole minute to unhook a system and hook up another. If BC was so important to you you should've bought a 60GB/20GB. People wanted a cheaper version they got one. Buy a system with BC, or play the PS2 games on the PS2.

Dude, I have a Dreamcast, GC, Stereo, ps2, and a ps3 in my TV at the same time. The other one has a Direct TV reciever, a DVD player, a GC, and a ps2 hooked into it. The other one, (the 15 incher) has a Direct TV reciever and a DVD player in it. They're called multiple video inputs, welcome to the 21st cenury.

PS2 games have been constantly outselling PS3 games every month.

While some people will not buy the 40 gig model because of no bc, a substantail percentage of potentail PS3 buyers are not interested in PS2 software.MetalContra

I said that in the first part of my statement

I think the primary issue is that each new version of the PS3 is getting worse than the ones before it. Yes, we all expect and hope for hardware to come down in price as the generation goes on, but the hardware we buy later is usually identical of slightly better than what was available at launch.

It's silly that the best versions are going to be the refurbished GameStop or ebay ones.

But since it either costs Sony money to put PS2 hardware inside it or wastes resources to make full emulation then why are you hypocrits complaining about the low end model losing an extra feature. The only reason it exists at all is because they stripped out as much as possible. Either get the high end one or shut up. 360 Core doesn't have BC either, you need the HDD - both sides are equal now.Lazy_Boy88
