800 games out of 8000 are not working. *GASP* What, are the majority of games Barbie - Princess Tale, Be a janitor SIM. Out of the 800, there are really only 2 heavy hitters that are missing. No HUGE loss. EVERYBODY has a PS2. Plug it in, and play.

Sony didn't lie. Remember with the PS2 launch, memory cards were supposed to work? They didn't save games, and some even fried PS2s. It's a launch system.

enjoy 97.x% of PS/PS2 games on your PS3. Oh no, not 100% backwards compatible. I doubt anybody on Joystiq has the 800 games anyway.

No offense, but who cares? This is far more than the Xbox 360 had and has to offer. And Nintendo never offered BC until the Wii. So, this is still huge in my eyes. Especially seeing as how it just launched, and 1st gen consoles always have issues. Xbox 360 anybody?

Funny how an opinion can change the second you try something out for the first time. Months have passed since people were bashing this game. And now that its' finally here, the game is a God send.
Weird... You have to try something first before you can judge it? Dare i say the same for the PS3? Oh no, you all would still bash the system even though hardly anybody played the system.

You guys are idiots. How much did the Xbox 360 cost at launch time with a HDD? UHhhh ya, shut up. Same price as this. Microsoft did quite well with this option.

Ya, Nintendo invented the idea of touching. Al Gore told me so.

They are doing this for one sole reason. Garner more support for the PS3. You tell 15 year olds and their parents that they only buy a PS3 system and a game and they can play online. Parents save $$ in the long run -albeit the initial PS3 cost. In a way it's a HUGE gamble. If they step up to bat and it's a miss, you can kiss something good bye for either current or even next-next gen.

I personally think this is a beautiful idea. I hate paying 100$ (CDN) for Xbox Live). 75 percent of the reason i'm buying a PS3 is because of free online play -and other obvious reasons

WOW! This is unreal. Thank you Sony...

I cannot wait. COME ON NOVEMBER!

I love Berry!

That thing is HIDEOUS. If i saw somebody carrying that anywhere, i'd automatically assume it was a damn Neo-Geo Pocket.

Back to the drawing board, Microsoft (If this is a legit picture that is)

*whinning voice* SOUNDS LIKE SOMEONES COPYING NINTENDO'S VIRTUAL CONSOLE *end voice*

Or, Nintendo took an idea that the internet is doing already with PC games. Hmm... Nah, Nintendo is the trend setter, you're right.
