Not by choice of Sony. The HD Council is making any future device do this. It won't effect pre-existing devices only future made ones.

Hey, Rocket Science, I own a PS3 right now. It's a device in my home right now, not one which I'll buy in the future, it's a device from which Sony are again planning on removing an existing feature.

This isn't Backward-Compatibility being removed from v.2 of the hardware, they're talking about requiring an upgrade to maintain parity with PSN, the Store, multiplayer gaming, but it will intentionally and needlessly remove a  feature which I've been enjoying.

It wont affect existing machines though (unless they can remove via firmware like distinguished mentally-challenged fellows)

This bitching is good if your gonna get a new PS3

Why do you think they can't rewrite firmware? Why do you think they won't?

Quote from: Sony Computer Entertainment America PR Manager Al De Leon
The new CECH-3000 series PS3 requires HDMI only for BD movie output in HD, in compliance with AACS standards. PS3 continues to support component output for HD gaming and streaming content.

As I've said, games are fine you won't need to upgrade anything. AACS standards in this case are unavoidable, it's funny Sony are getting so much flak for this when in reality it's not solely their decision.

I'm not giving them flack for the CECH-3000 -- I'm suspecting that this will be in a firmware revision for existing PS3s as well, such as the one I already bought.

PS3 is like a device that has been designed by magus and borys...not here or there

I guess that funds at Sony are tight,they could easily trim their overbloated OS

Cross game chat is stupid and not necessary just like rumble and achievements were until Sony finally implemented them and sony fanboys rejoiced.

I honestly thought the PS3 already got it and I didn't care about it.

But seriously, buy a Vita. :(

Yeah, I'm not sure where everyone magically thought the RAM would come from.

Also, this just in from REALITY: There won't ever be consistent use of System BGM (Custom Soundtrack), either.  :P

Ugh... I had hoped they would can this ad campaign.

Wow, that was really bad. The Butler ads are much better when they don't take things seriously.

But are you really surprised that Sony doesn't understand what made it great to begin with?

As cheap as Borys is, I bet he's gonna sell his black PS3 at a loss for the "superior" white version.  Fuckin' racialist!  Himu should slap you with his bbc.

Although I don't approve of Sony retroactively removing BC, I think it's overrated.  Almost every gamer has a PS2 anyways.  The only PS3 BC feature that I are care about, is being able to save on the hard drive.  Saving to memory cards on the PS2 was a real pain in the ass.

if you already have the camera and care about lightgun games and don't own a wii, the move itself for $25 is ok.

when it worked it worked fine, and it did add some novelty replay value in fps games, but mine would constantly lose calibration and drift all over the place no matter how many times i reset it, and lots of other folks around the internet seemed to be having the same problem, but whenever i brought the problem up at the usual places i was told "must be something you're doing wrong pinpoint precision blahblablah" so basically fuck the move and the move defense force

I've got a Move setup. Bocce and disc golf in Sports Champions is fun and so is Time Crisis, but I haven't played it months.

I'd probably pick up The Fight for $10. My buddy has it and it's kinda fun when drinking.

other move game are $10 too, like Start the Party and The Shoot.

the only upcoming games I want are HotD Overkill for cheap, because I own it on the wii and it would be double dipping but it's a good game and ugless now, and Time Crisis.  I own a Guncon 3 and the original TC4, so I can't justify picking it up at its current price.

Child of Eden will probably be good on it too, but I got the 360 version and it plays exactly like rez with a controller.

The Time Crisis Collection is fantastic. I got it for $35 a while back.

I've got:
Sports Champions
Time Crisis Collection
Dance on Broadway -- wife's game, she loves it, go figure
Dead Space Extraction
Tumble -- awesome game

The only upcoming Move game I want is Child of Eden.
