YEA THATS WHAT I HEARD TOO, GOOD THING I DONT HAVE A LOTTA PS2 GAMES LEFT, BUT GAH DAMN THATS GONNA SUCK
WONDER IF THEY GONNA FIX IT?
I think they are in the future productions, but they aren't going to in these because they don't want to delay the release of the PS3. However, I don't see how they can sell the system considering it says it is compatible with PS2 and PS1 games and it really isnt. They are going to set themselves up with lawsuits for false advertising I would think.
I would never spend that kind of money on a game system anyway. considering in less than 2 years you will be able to get it for half that price.

To all those people who plan on getting one but are only going a day in advance.....good luck with that.
I'm leaving in about an hour to get in line. The Best Buy I'm going ot didn't have anyone there yesterday, hopefully there isn't many people there yet.
^if you're going to the one on moreland ave., good luck. i work there. there's already 35+ people in line and we're only getting 25 of the 60GB HD ones and 5 of the 20GB HD ones.
I just got a call from EB Games. They said I can pick mine up at 8am Friday morning. I was first in line. My wife and I are still going to camp out at Wal-Mart though...

Sony Playstation 3 Faces Some Problems
Posted: 11/15/2006 by: HHNLive.com
Red-faced Sony bosses announced yesterday that their prized PlayStation 3 is a plagued-station.
Just days from the U.S. debut of its mega-hyped video game, legions of fans were peeved that the updated console won't play some old games.
The announcement comes after Sony spent months boasting that first- and second-generation PlayStation titles would be compatible with the latest version set to be released in the United States on Friday.
"We are sorry for the game fans that they cannot play all games. But unfortunately some of these problems could not be avoided," said Sony spokesman Satoshi Fukuoka.
PS3 was released in Japan on Saturday and complaints soon followed.
The popular war game "Final Fantasy XI" is among those that don't work on the new 60gigabyte machine. The glitches are also muffling the background music to the "Tekken 5" combat game. And the virtual gun on "Biohazard" won't fire.
The problems are causing Sony to eat crow after it blasted rival Microsoft's XBox 360 last year for having similar compatibility problems.
"The big deal is they [Sony] claimed it would be fully backwards compatible and now they're running into problems," said Tim Surette, news editor of the San Francisco-based gaming magazine Gamespot. "I'm sure Microsoft is smiling."
About 200 of the 8,000 old games are affected by the glitches in the new $600 system.
Gaming fans already lining up outside the Circuit City in Union Square for PS3's release at 12:01 a.m. Friday said they'll just hold on to their old consoles to play the old games.
Rutgers University student Tamba Peters, 21, was more worried about getting his hands on one of the new PlayStations than coping with its bugs.
"The PS3's going to be my second girlfriend," said Peters, as his girlfriend, Katherine Poff, 20, rolled her eyes.Peters

DONT FUCKING PS3 TEST THE MACHINE???! FOR MISTAKES AND GLITCHES?
maybe i'm just more laid back but 200 out of 8000 games that won't play doesn't seem like it's that big of a deal.....Originally Posted by Eurostunna07
^^ I dont care if ps3 doesnt play ps1/ps2 games its all about new games and new shit with the ps3..btw I have a ps1 and 2 ps2s.
btw check ur numbers i think its way more then only 200 dude.
^^^lol, 200 came from the article further up in the thread man so if that's wrong then oh well![]()
I don't think I could wait in line for hours just for anything like that. It almost reminds me of people and star wars.lol If you have the patience to wait in line, why not wait longer and let all the glitches happen and get one later. 600 is really steep though......I'd rather paint my car or buy a turbo.
I got one of the 20gigs last night at the BestBuy Gwinnett Midnight Launch
i got mine.

do you see all the problems sony is having with this release ? At least Microsoft had enough for alot more ppl, but i do know alot of the 360's where backordered but im not going to have a huge argument about xbox and playstation. Im just saying to me the 360 looks better and i lke the games for that console.
dont get me wrong i love my 360 but playstation 3 is bad ass! they both good systems i got the 60gig one last night kicks ass
