    I was watching the news last night and the PS3 made headlines. The PS3 got released in Japan this week and they are having problems with it already. It wont play over 8,000-10,000 game titles from the PS2 and PS1. Here is the link: http://www.wsbtv.com/technology/10318678/detail.html

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
