PS3 in Europe does have backward compatibility with the PS2.
Under the new 1.6 firmware to be released on March 22nd, 1,782 of the 2,451 PS2 games released in Europe will work on the PlayStation 3.

Gamasutra is a great site for news regarding all game consoles and the PC as well.

people will replace their dvd collection but it wont happen soon. its gonna happen after either blu-ray or hd-dvd loses the war and dies away. it’ll happen when a clear winner is found and at the moment no-one knows who that is gonna be.

“Because who really want,s to replace their DVD Collection with more expensive Disks.”

I remember the same thing said about vinyl/tape, tape/cd and of course the same was said about VHS/DVD

Just 1 more thing this Blu-Ray thing is about to die.

Because who really want,s to replace their DVD Collection with more expensive Disks.

But the question is will more game companies put their games on Blu-Ray Disks. One thing i do know is that we will not.

Here in belgium it wasn’t a great sell-out either.

In my city, there’s a big mega-store who has at this moment about 30 PS3’s in his shop, and the most people don’t even look at it.

I think it’s very overrated, and in 1 week, sony will tell us that it wasn’t as succesfull as they hoped.

(btw, I heard that the blu-ray player isn’t the best there is, they say you can’t play the movies on the highest quality blu-ray supports. In other words: a cheap player)

I’ll stick to my pc, for the few games I play.

ps: sorry for my english if it isn’t that good.

The PS3 is really great, even better, now that we can so easily help fighting diseases by running Folding@Home, just a few clicks to install it!
