I guess I'm a moron for not doing more research before buying God Of War II

i got frustrated in GOW2 when you had to climb those chains on the platforms while enemies kept hitting you down off it.

1. Borrow a PS2 to play it
2. Play GOW3 on PS3
3. ???
4. Profit!!!

I think the 60GB PS3 is the only version that is PS2 compatible

2/3/2009 9:07:17 AM

i will sell you my old PS2
it should still work

I was thinking about getting a PS3 since I was gonna get a blu ray player anyway

and I figured for 150 more bucks it might be worth it to have another system

Is it a good blu ray player or just a shitty one

2/3/2009 9:08:57 AM

i havent even used mine yet but everyone in the PS3 thread in entertainment says its a good player

2/3/2009 9:09:55 AM

its a good blu-ray player

2/3/2009 9:10:09 AM

yeah its good

2/3/2009 9:10:40 AM

for a long time it was the benchmark bluray player, i mean just look at the hardware in the thing

the old 80gb ps3 is backwards compatible.

i think you gotta have the best ps3 out now to be backwards compatible (read - most expensive)

2/3/2009 9:10:58 AM

cool I'll probably pick one up at some point

I heard about a supposed price drop within the next few months

2/3/2009 9:11:16 AM

i know that when i was looking at ps3s i checked out 360fanboy.com and ps3fanboy.com

you get the addicts there who work at best buy and will post about a price drop weeks ahead of when it will happen and exactly when the price drops comes into play. so if you're looking at trading something in you can do it before the price drop, or can wait til after the price drop to buy it.

newb, its not reverse compatible because they want you to download the game

The newest PS3s are NOT backwards compatible. If you want to see a good chart that explains all the PS3 models (new and old) check out sony's website or Wikipedia.

this is why sony sucks.

PSX and PS2 were awesome. everything else they've made since is fail.

I'm Big Business and i approved this message.

I was once considering a ps3 because I never owned a ps2 and I could get ps2 games I've never played as well as next-gen ps3 games. BUT No...Sony has to be a giant asshole and take out the one feature that would have led me to likely buy one.
