Wow, I can't believe how many of those games actually don't work on a PS3. I was under the impression it was supposed to be backwards compatible with all of them.

Beats sales records? I thought everyone was saying that it wasn't selling at all.




Posted by Bebop

I find it hard to beleive that PS3 breaks console home record sales. I shall be investigating this spin and lies.

All Ive heard is how bad it's tanked. Now they say its selling like hot cakes?

Some thing seems fishy.

Those who didn't buy it say it tanked. Those who didn't buy heavily outweigh the numbers of those that did. It's easy to see why someone would hear it did bad.

Its not really a fan vs. enemy different view thing that is odd.


Its just that the fact that Ps3 is 6 months late and has crap backwards compatibility but breaks a sales record and happens to have both its exclusives on top selling list .


But meh, in the long run the Launch isn't the big thing. The Ps2 had a ****ty first year and look how it turned out.

Internet kids just want it to fail, hence "lol not selling." Though, is anyone honestly surprised that it did sell well? It's still a new system in that region and would've sold basically no matter what.
