Now its software, like the 360, so only some games will work from the PS2.And it looks like that's the standard for any PS3s from this point on, as according to Sony is cheaper that way. So there's another big problem for the PS3 that Sony's bringing upon itself.And that seems to be the real problem. Most all of Sony's problems they're bringing themselves. They're making decisions that are just constantly shooting themselves in the foot, and while Microsoft is definitely losing money on the warranty thing, its no where near the amount that Sony's lost thanks to these constant screw ups.It also seems to me that the whole not-competiting-with-the-Wii that both MS and Sony isn't really that true in how the companies are reacting. Or, at least, its not working, as the Wii is still destroying both of them...MS is adapting to this, attempting to bring in a casual market of their own, but Sony just isn't grasping that one, either, despite it being proven to be a major way to push consoles this generation.</blockquote>
