Bloody hell. Was that a typo, or are yen really that worthless?
Still, bloody expensive though. I'll stick to my PS2, thank you very much.
Just a little bit of info: Yen only deals with whole numbers, no decimal points. Not really "worthless" as it's about $300 right there.

Latest exchange rate: $1 (U.S.) = 93 Japanese Yen (app.). And what is the deal with "no backwards compatibility"? Stupid Sony, always messing things up! > Yutrzenika, may I assume that you do not live anywhere near a "GameStop" outlet? 'Cause that place has everything.

Sony thinks PS3 has enough games that it doesn't need PS2 to support it anymore.

they should at least add a store where you can buy PS2 games.
They are gonna do that. That's the MAIN reason why Sony ain't supporting PS2 gaming on PS3. Because they are gonna release them to that PS3webstore...

or maybe they should sell you a disc converter, if the PS2 discs are that different from PS3 disks.

Friggin' rip off! I can get prey for $8! They ask for $30?! I can also get Bioshock and Oblivion in one package for $40! They ask $40 for each! Ninja'd: It was Sarcasm...

Maybe I'll just get one of the "older" PS3 models, with full backwards compatibility. You can upgrade the hard drives on those things, right? I only want it for gaming & playing Blu-Ray discs.

No, you can't upgrade the Hard-drives. But if you get a 60 Gig Model, that's plenty.

You are an informed consumer. But you know that there are people who either don't know better or are too lazy to go to the store and check prices before they download something. I'm sure Micro$oft is making a fortune with these.

I'm checking the going rates on Amazon and eBay; I think I can get a better deal on eBay, but tracking down a fully-BC model with 60 GB is going to be tough. Also, I have to pay my rent this week, so it'll be at least 2 more weeks before I can seriously contemplate plunking down $300 (or more) for this technological marvel.
