$ony only needed one different iteration to kill real PS2 support. We in Europe never had it

This wouldnt be to bad of an idea. Im SOL because my internet is so crappy it cant even watch youtube videos without loading a 1min video for 20min.

When im playing a PS2 game am i going to get Buffering every 2sec?

You really think Sony is MONEY OVER EVERTHING, if that was the case why would they take loses on HARDWARE. Surely they would SHAFT everybody from DAY ONE.

You say SONY don't care about it's USERS, yet they must care ENUFF to offer ONLINE GAMING FOR FREE.

Don't be silly, man... Media conglomerates can afford to do that!

Have you ever been on PSN?? lol It's something awful.

Losing money on hardware (PS3) was a long time ago. They make profit on every PS3 sold for a long time now...

Reason why PSN/SEN is free? Correct, to make more money with selling all kind of stuff that should be free like DLC's
Look at the price of memory cards for the Vita.... It really is only about money and nothing else

Not to mention that Sony's promise before the PS3 launch was that EVERY PS3 would have PS2 emulation, resulting in true HD display running your old PS2 games on it. The fact this never happened has haunted them since the beginning if you ask me. I've seen PS2 games in hi res many times and with post processing added, you get a picture you wouldn't believe was previous gen.

You really have no idea about marketing and customer relations do you?

No insult intended btw, just stating the fact that you miss the whole point on both.

Ps..... You give me all your wonderful consoles and I will be more than happy to play them all, if you don't then stop being a pillock and understand that most 'normal' people don't get a stiffy over having lots and lots of consoles just so they can get off on making ridiculous posts that have no bearing on the topic to let everyone know they have them (those insults were intended )

More like your winging is about you not been able to pirate PS VITA. Why must you have everything for free, it all take time/money to make/promote. Sony is afterall a business.

You'd rather get a STIFFY playing MAME ripping off all the classic consoles by emulating them and stealing ROMS. Priacy is what is killing the gaming industry.
