PAL COMPATIBLE ONLY
That makes it rather useless here.

Or how about... PS2 + PS1 = PS3?

The silver PS2 is available in NTSC also.

A real consolation prize is a XBox360.

PS3 is a overpriced POS. You're paying an extra $200 for the blu-ray alone, and the format war has barely started. I tihnk I'll stick to my PC for games and won't shell out $600

I was considering getting the 360, but I don't have an Xbox1 and MS has apparently stopped caring about backwards compatibility with less than 30% of xbox1 titles working.

So buying it means -only- being able to play $60 360 titles and Halo, not many of the xbox1 titles that look interesting and are now cheap.

I wouldn't want a PS3 at any price. I don't like this attempt by Sony to force "Blu-Ray" as a new DVD format.

Blu-Ray is simply Sony's Beta in a digital form. I think the whole Sony root-kit fiasco should have been all the foreshadowing we need on this.
