Meh, minor flaw. It's a next gen console, meant for next gen games. I got rid of all my Xbox games save for Halo 2 for my 360. Granted, the PS3 is more expensive, and console owners may have to play older games on it for a while. Still, not too big of a deal... yet.

And why is this a problem? i could have told you it wouldnt be 100% backwards compatible. anyone who thought it would is just dumb.

One would figure it would be 100% (or at least as close as possible to it like the PS2 was with PS1 games) since the PS3 has PS2 hardware in it so there is no need for emulation. Not to mention that Sony was saying that it would be (another lie from them).

Sony never said it would be 100% backwards compatible. and just because they have PS2 hardware built in doesnt mean all games will work. because when sony released the slimmer PS2, some PS2 games didnt work for the smaller system.

It's certainly not good news, but its better that happening than consoles not working at all, 'a la 360 launch.

Yeah but it wasn't no 200 titles that don't work (that's for the japanese version of the PS3, not sure what's the # for the US version.
