And maybe to encourage buying the PS3 games to help get some of that money back. Basically, if a person mostly wants a PS3 to play the PS2 games they have, they have to buy the model that Sony loses less money on, but if they just care about the new games, Sony can lose more money on them as far as selling them the system (at least as a group). Of course, this doesn't stop people from just renting, but does seem like it would encourage a higher attach rate for PS3 games.
