    Does everything... 'cept Linux, PS2 games... But hey, that's like saying "sure she's hot, but she can't play guitar better than Carlos Santana or beat Valentino Rossi in a race."
    TThe point is that there's already something that does those things exceptionally well. So why replace the best with something good enough?
  3. lmao...these are by far the funniest ads ive seen from sony

    Only trouble is, "everything" includes a lot of failures, and you cannot get parts or drivers without great difficulty.

    yeah .. funny ads ;) for sure ...
    there's no need to argue ... the PS3 has reached it's paroxysm in terms of Quality & soon for Quantity ...
    for those still wanting BC or Linux ... get the old system while stock lasts - same price!
    now, it really does everything .. for do much more than any other games console @ the same price & the newer softs coming makes it the better & with a 10% failure rate compared to 54% of another one that just came to a price cut too .. well the WII wins ;)
    buy what you need & what you want, be it Xbox360, PS3 or WII ... I got my PC & a PS3 ... will upgrade my PC when Diablo III comes out.
    If God of War I & II are released as PS3 portage, i'll never miss BC again ...
    I tried Linux once on my PS3, was too much burden & didn't find a practical use of it, hey i've got a PC - the best gaming machine around + linux compatible + windows compatible, everyone's happy ... ;)
    I have my PS3 for: (DONE PLAY: Heavenly Sword, Uncharted Drake's fortune / En cours: LittleBigPlanet, Mortorstorm pacific rift, Burnout Paradise, MK vs DC, Assassin's Creed, Virtua Fighter 5, My God of War I & II PS2, Ordered: Batman AA (with JOKER & batcave, no way i'll miss that!) Pre-Ordered: Uncharted 2 - among thieves, Heavy rain, Last Guardian, God of War 3, Gran Turismo 5, DC Universe online) ... Will get some mega Multis too: Dante's Inferno, Darksiders, maybe NFS Shift & Castlevania) If money left i'll also go for now not exclusive: Meta Gear Solid, Final Fantasy XIII) .. OMG must become Rich in 2009 ... ;)
    cheers!

    sony are repositioning the ps3 as a multi media home entertainment gizmo , installing other OS doesn't fall into the direction they want to go , that still leaves backward compat ? , I guess theres not a big demand for it .

    hello ...
    if they continue into re-releasing great PS2 hits into re-mastered PS3 version, i think BC would become obsolete .. still would mean spending more money but ensures compatibility!
    just check-out the God of War Collection ;) ... sure hope they do so for some other great titles ... would really like to see team ICO's games ...
    cheers!
  8. PS3 It Only Does Everything.....But beat the Wii in sales!

    PS3 It Only Does Everything ....But play PS2 games you already own!

    (Yes,Yes we made one that did but we discontinued it so we could resell you games you already own we love our customers .....MONEY!
  9. NO. It does not do Everything. What a bad case of false advertisement. I like the ps3 but i'm hating them for this. There "It only does everything" Console can not even play its little brothers games. How much more fail can it get? This is such a stupid campaign.
    "Oh, a few models of the ps3 do play ps2 games"
    But the "It only does everything" term applies to all of the ps3s. I wish they'd stop worrying about making it smaller yet ugly and actaully put some time into making the damned thing backwards compatible.
  10. I find it very annoying that they claim that the PS3 does EVERYTHING. I have a 360 and I'll be honest, 75% of the time I'm using it as a Windows Media Center Extender to watch and record live TV. The PS3 doesn't even come close to that functionality. Sure, you could try surfing over to mycast.orb.com.... but really? PS3 devs! If you want to claim it does everything, think of ALL consumers! Add on a dedicated way to connect to a computer for tv streaming or heck, just give me an icon that goes straight to orb! Do all that AND make it work in 1080p and I'll buy one because then, to me, it will be doing everything.
