stability, its the reason why I stay on 3.55.
I hope its run perfectly with new release game...
...
it will be nice to those who never owned one and will get underpriced games, but i don't think there's many people who will.
and curse them for not putting ps2 compatibility on ps3, i totally was looking forward to play cy girls, i haven't been able to since my ps2 laser died 2 times
Total rubbish, PS3's should be the only option.
Imagine if Sony started out with ALL PS3's having backwards compatiblity and focused more on the PS3 & PSP? In my opinion this PS2 thing has been dragged along too far by Sony. They need to let it go.
