Is this the one with backward compatibility? If so, I might have to pick it up. I don't like MGS, so i can just sell it back for an extra $30. I mean, I'm going to have to play FF XIII, GoW III, and MLB 09: The Show. And my PS2 broke. It won't be bought back for $30, try more around between $40 and $50. SWEET! So, is the 80 gig one backward compatible? I used to know which was which but can't remember now. But $350 for a PS3 and Duel Shock is a sweet deal.

Again, what is "select"? I don't have the money to waste on a system if i can't play 3/4 of my PS2 games.

im going by the assumption that it works like the Xbox 360 backwards compatibility where they slowly get the library out to full compatibility in their updates. So eventually, there will be full compatability in a few months.

Playstation had said earlier that the PS3 will have full backwards compatibility, then said last January that 1000 games will be backwards compatible with the system (http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=23148) and now on the Sony website says "We are working with game publishers and peripheral manufacturers to develop the appropriate hardware to play peripheral-dedicated PS1 and PS2 games on the PS3. Ultimately, however, it will be up to those companies to decide if they want to produce these peripherals to support this gameplay option." Here's a helpful link to search for games that are backwards compatible -- www.us.playstation.com/Support/CompatibleStatus

Hopefully by then I'll have my gov't allotted $600.
