PS3 backwards compatible? not on everything

[blueswitch]

I'm sure most of the good games work but just a little FYI

I would have though putting in the PS2 hardware componants they'd get almost 100% compatibilty...if not It would have been better to go emulation like 360 and shave off some off that $600 sticker.

They said they can patch it with a software update, but MS originally said EVERY original Xbox game would work as well. We know how that went.....

The PS2 wasn't 100% backwards compatible with the PS1 either. It works out better this way because now it should be PS1, 2, and 3 compatible. No other disc-based system has been around long enough to pull that off. I still like to play a couple of old PS1 games from time to time. The two spiderman games and Ace Combat. Not to mention the first three tekken games.
