Backwards Thinking: You've been GIMPED. (k3nshi)

Ho hum. I cancelled my PS3 preorder, due to the Backwards Comaptibility farce being played out by Sony with the European models of the PS3.

Do I really care that much about backwards compatibility? No.

Do I care about paying a lot more money for less capable hardware? Yes.

And many other gamers, feel the same way judging by the reaction to on the "semi-official blog" of the PS3: Three Speech. Making things so, so much worse is the insane PR policy Sony is adopting to deal with the fans. Because lets face it, if you are considering paying £425 to get a PS3 at launch, you are a BELIEVER in what the PS3 is meant to represent (state of the art gaming hardware).

This whole thing could have been handled so, so much better.
