It's probably been covered and I've missed it but does the new PS3 have proper BC?

I doubt there will be in the high street being as they still cost top dollar to buy from suppliers prior to the 80G launch. Most likely it will be bundled with a couple of free games or something. We're probably going to be doing them for £299.99 with a free game of your choice and one other from a selection of 'other titles'. The 80G PS3 will be £349.99 with any two games of your choice. For many, who won't be fussed about the size of the HDD and there is a lot of those, will no doubt opt for the 40g model as it's £50 cheaper. It's how we shifted the last of our 20G 360's.

Again. :(

I need to clear space under my TV and BC would sell a PS3 to me personally, with Yakuza 2 and if I'm lucky Persona 4 coming out then I still want something that plays PS2 games, and some select PS3 games of coarse. I guess it will be a while since I get one then. Anyway, wrong thread for that kind of whinging.

Oh look, bugger all is coming out, what a surprise.
