PS3 Backwards Compatibility Problems

[SimplyTech]

I dont really see why anyone would get a PS3 and play ps2 games. Most good ps2 games will be released on ps3 I think as well. I have never played ps1 games on my PS2 as thats just going back a stage :p.

Dont try and cover up for the ps3 if the wii had a fault i wouldnt go nah thats rubbish

The idea is that you can play your old games on it.

But then you'd make your ps2 useless...
I mean if you wanted to buy ps2 games, your obviously gonna get a ps2 cuz theyre cheaper...

Sorry, no offense, but I think that's a pretty stupid post. Of course people will want to play ps2 games. PS2 was actually a very good console dispite it's Disk Read Errors. I know that if I was getting a PS3, I would want to play PS2 games. Just my opinion.... PS2 has great games. Sequels aren't always as great as the originals.

No offence or anything but ANYONE who playes games for a living like teengager not adults must be sad. Get out more

No, Wii is a social console to play with everyone round your house, not really a serious console. I'm a pro gamer, I need a PS3!

The Wii isnt serious? Lol, what you been smoking. :rolleyes: If it wasn't serious it wouldn't be here.

The Playstation 2 had continuous problems, 3/4 (three quarters, not 3 people out of 4) of the people I know that have a PS2 have had to get a new one because it kept crashing, failed to play games, would not save games, etc. If it were a good console it wouldn't do any of that.

people just don't make games for Nintendo.

Since when?
I guess thats why the Wii has 45 odd launch titles while to PSP had like 5. :rolleyes_

If you wanted to buy PS2 games you can, and you will play them on your PS3. The whole point is to make the PS2 useless. Would you rather play PS3 and PS2 games on your PS3 or play PS3 games on PS3 and PS2 games on PS2? Your'd have to keep switchign between consoles if you did that, theres no point.

Wii- For we are playing together. We meaning everyone can play.
The point is...everyone can. There are agmes for hardcore gamers and ones like wario ware smooth moves that are just fun!.
If you call yourself a pro gamer? get off runescape and buy zelda fgs!
