399 PS3 on the way

"According Game Informer magazine, a $399 40gig PS3 system is on the way, but it will have no backwards compatibility. They actually expected to hear the announcement at E3 on it. So they may have just heard different rumblings altogether."

WTF !?!?!?!?!

I dont understand why they would remove software emulation if it is somehow "free" for them.

Don\'t the current PS3s actually have some PS2 hardware?

And don\'t the European PS3s already have the backwards compatibility stripped from them?  

If Sony can cut the price by getting rid of it, I don\'t see why they shouldn\'t.

Yeah but for their die hards who have games all the way to the beginning suffer. I have PSX games and PS2 games I like to still play.

Well backwards compatibility is still there and works very nice in EU. If you dont update your firmware from 1.5 to something higher you will certaintly have issues. Only some titles seem to have a few issues with the latest FW but these are getting fewer and fewer with each firmware released which improves and fixes problems

The last thing they need is another model out there. Focus on a price drop, sell the current units.
