[QUOTE="Jroc, post: 13747189, member: 51847"] I'm just curious as to why. I have both a PS3 and a 360, and enjoy both, and have no real bias to either. Still one of the coolest things about the PS2, and early PS3 was that they would still play the older consoles they replaced games. I still might even get on some old FFVII from time to time and it's a PS1 game. Just because a game is old doesn't mean it isn't good or undesirable to play. It just seems like there's no good reason not to have it with all the other features and capabilities these new system have. In actuality it would make for a huge plus to want to buy a new system IMO, so that you don't have to have several systems connected to play all your games especially when they are having to build up a new collection of games for the new systems. Would it real cost them much to add a chip to read the order systems games? Is there and other good reason not to add that capability to the new consoles? Maybe they feel like it would cause them to sell less games. :shrug: [/QUOTE]
