Exclamation Price Cut = Less PS2 Backwards Compatibilty

Keep in mind, for the European launch, Sony replaced the PS2 chip, the Emotion Engine with a software emulator to minimize the retail price. As a result, The European PS3s cannot play the amount of PS2 games American PS3s can (500 compatible PS2 games vs. 1000 for Americans). (Here's the article: http://www.psxextreme.com/ps3-news/871.html) If Sony decides to have a price cut in October, EXPECT to see less backwards compatibility on the new shipments of revised PS3s. I bought mine for $600, but I can play all the PS2 games I have on top of all the other PS3 features...
