Hell, if Sony has all the PS2's stuff shoved into the PS3 as well, they all should work. I dunno.

they originally had 15, their shipment got cut back to 10. 8 premiums and 2 cores. i'm #5 on the list so i'm still guaranteed a premium unit

when i got my playstation 2 I never played a playstation one game again...


i dont care if it cant play "some" titles.. Ibitstilloutsellseverysystemouthtere

 

[~*~Horse Lover!~*~]

jesus, that's pitiful

 

[Catie (:]

maybe they spent all their time debugging the bluray and not enough time working on the backwards compatibility issue

 

[texasaggie21]

Does it freeze up completely, or just get semi-frozen and jerky like it's accessing outside information?

 

[tennisplayer101]

You didnt' hear?

Basically it works sorta like the X360 dashboard does, and you can pull up a 'marketplace' in games. This is how you'll buy things like cars and tracks, and teams, stadiums and jerseys. But in addition to the obvious, they're going to make things like t-shirts and game merchandise available from the same market place. It's *kinda* cool but just feels so... scammish. Sorta like the whole, if we put this shit in here, kids will see it and want it, and you'll buy it.

It's in one of the EGM's in the past couple months.

I'd rather have them doing that.

MS should have fucken debugged their dashboard. A year after release and shit still freezes up.

 

[min_cat_mjj]

I haven't either, but others have. Then again I've only had my 360 for a few months.

 

[Kunmui]

Completely. I also had jerky video playback but the secret HDD cleanup command helped that. If that's gonna be a problem, why fucken keep it a secret?

 

[ricky414]

Or how about about the people buying the PS3's without a game plan on selling them in the near future? And once those systems are sold, their secondhand buyers will be purchasing a game or two.

I certainly believe that more then people buying PS3's to play PS1 games

 

[dilla1988]

Are you serious? That's pretty fucking and a little at the same time

 

[aslenderhelen]

i would really feel short changed if i had to resort to playing ps2/ps1 games on my ps3... id def buy ps3 games

and if someone has ps2 games they should just play em on their ps3 till they can phase them out.. who wants to go back in time? i dont I dont think i ever played a ps1 game on my ps2

 

[joec]

Hhaha.. man.. it's Microsoft. I'm not always a fanboy about everything they do, cause they do some stupid shit sometimes. But if they put all the obvious shit that's a 'secret' in any given one of their Window's products as an easily accessable option.. my job would be much easier. Haha.

You get all the dashboard updates right?

 

[badinfluencegirl1995]

Yep, but the HDD cleanup removes game updates, so i have to redownload them all. Not a big deal, but I hope I dont have to do this shit every few weeks

 

[O8SERVER IV]

That would be.. totally.. awesome.

Just put yer address in the dashboard info, and blamo.

*click*click*click* DING! DONG!



Get the door, it's Domino's.

it's running off of a different main processor, kinda creates a fubar if there are special calls that aren't interpretable for the cell processor code.

hmmm i'm actually wondering if the development is as difficult as they say it is if the hardware inside has a simular arcitecture. Hell a developer could technically code for the ps2 and utilize the ps3 when necessary ... if that's even a possibility
