| well there will be a lot of people seeling their ps2's when the ps3 comes out. |
|
Coolness: 686305
| Not really, seeing as how the PS3 will not be backwards compatible at all.. On top of the 699 US$ price tag, as well as the game price being 70-85 US$... |

I'm feeling tasty right now.. |

| It will be backwards compatible. There are apparently 38 ps1 games and 9 ps2 games that don't play properly on the ps3.. but out of thousands. If any of those games are games I possess I won't sell my ps2 but if I don't have them, which is pretty likely considering the large volume of games, I will sell it. |

Sakamoto's comments came after Sony published a list of games which are not compatible with the new silver slimline PS2 console, due to go on sale in Japan next month. A total of 38 PSone and nine PS2 games were listed, including Tekken 5, Hitman: Contracts and Resident Evil.
And that's just the PS2 with a diffrent firmware. The PS3 uses entierly new/diffrent CPU architecture. It's like trying to run old PowerPC Mac apps on an Intel computer; the WHOLE CODE needs to be completely re-written. |

| It uses the same language... they just change certain things like when any language moves up a version, they defintiely don't need to re-program it, if they did no old games would work at all. Did anyone actually expect it to be 100% backward compatible? |
|
Coolness: 686305
| Uhmm, no, it doesn't, they've been having problems programing it since the dev kits came out because the whole CPU architecture is 100% diffrent from anything else. It doesn't even have "graphic card" or "sound card" components, just 3 identical cell processors that handle everything.
Though, with some reading, turns out that I was wrong about the backwards compatibility, as they're just putting a PS2 cpu inside the thing because there is NO WAY they could ever get the new cell procesors to work any PSO/2 game without completely re-writing the code from the ground up. |

| Exactly! they been saying it would be for years. And It does! You just proved my own point. It's impossible to rewrite the code of a game after it's released, it's as simple is that. That's what backwards compatible means.

| PS2 was sub-par from the start but that's just my opinion. I'd honestly be more enthusiastic to buy a 2nd hand original Nintendo if someone still had one in good / fuctioning condition. |

I'm feeling you up right now.. |

| At the pawn shop the (well) used console might cost you 100$, which is waay overpriced, so I suggest you get the clean and tested refurbished ps2 (with a game ;-). Used ps2s are risky, cause it might not read certain dvds or games or even both, and it might have a rusty disk tray and a damaged or well used lense. Although most parts are easily replaceable (ebay), buying one from a store will save you a lot of trouble. Maybe it's just me, but I find that consoles are personal - like underwears; you prefer to be the first one to wear them, LOL |

I'm feeling tired - zombie style right now.. |
