I can’t believe what I’m reading. More and more news reports of robbings, shootings, theft, and violence… We all know that playing games does not increase violent behavior, but greed sure does! And the people who are buyng these crappy systems are going to sell on eBay for $5k. I just want Sony to know… YOU CREATED THIS MAYHEM!!!
Updated 3pm – Reports pour in of more violance surrounding the console. Sony is NOT working with gamers on the ol’ violence and video games issue here!!!! }:-(
And surrounded by bad news… no count yet of how many consoles Sony actually released. Some of them were empty though. My favorite news is Sony explaining the new adz. And not without incident either! I hope everyone else made it home ok to play their new consoles…….. or sell them!?! Hope that console is worth the $5,000 people are paying for them…
When Sony was announcing the backwards compatibility of their console they mentioned they put the PS2 processor in “to insure 100% backwards compatibility.” When asked why there were problems with some games and their BC they said “from the start, expected backwards compatibility to be less than 100%.” What’s even better is their comment on the issue regarding no sound on old games for the systems and said ” some people can put up with playing games that lack sound.”
I for one can do without sound (or video for that matter)… as long as I’m not paying $600 for playing games without sound or video.
Again, Xbox 360 does NOT support all Xbox 1.0 games, but they never claimed 100% BC. They are working on adding more games all the time, based on which games people actually play. Besides, I still have my original Xbox so I can play whatever I want, when I want. I can do the same with your PS2.. as long as you didn’t trade it in on a pre-order! }:)
