Actually, the right to free speech only protects government-related speech and speech in public areas, iirc, not on private mediums, such as an internet forum.

Just a bit of trivia.


Also, please keep in mind that just because someone is purchasing a PS3 does not mean they ever had a PS2. I'd like to see backwards compatiblility put back in and worked on, because if nothing else it's more of a reason to get a PS3.

I was referring to GameStop bitchings, smartass.

A GameStop is still private property and, as such, you do not have free speech there (in fact, if you attempt to say certain things, they will more than happily throw you out)

This.

I mean it's not real big for me to push a button on my remote labeled 'Component' to get to my PS2 and 'HDMI' to get to my PS3.


Well, I don't have the most space, so the more consoles (and controllers, etc) you try to add, the worse it gets.

You know, you're gonna have to dispose those empty beer bottles at some point.

Wait a sec. According to Wikipedia... PS1 compatibility is still in ALL PS3 systems?

That's just hilarious.

Hey, better than none at all, right?

Besides, I'm pretty sure it's software emulation...

Well, how else are they going to market games that are compatible for both the PSP AND PS3? All those PSN remakes of old PS1 games are exactly that.

Course PS2 on a PSP? Nope.

If it's anything like on the PSP, it's pretty good software emulation.
