PSX Extreme: As far as I was concerned, one of the biggest selling points of the PlayStation 3 was it's backwards compatibility that would allow me to play almost any game I have in my PS1 and PS2 collection. This meant that early on, when the PS3 had little in the way of software, I could still choose from over 100 titles in my current collection, and still continue to play new PS2 games on my PS3. In other words, I'd have no reason to hold on to the PS2 once I upgraded.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
if you concider spoiled...

I never cared too much about BC because my first PS3was the Slim.
I have an extensive PS2 library but truthfully, I don't play those games anymore.
When it comes to good exclusive games, this isn't even a serious question.
When it comes to featues, it's why the console cost $600 way back when. When you pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for a top-of-the-line luxury vehicle, you expect to get everything out of it. When you pay tons for a maid or butler, you would hope you get spoiled.
that it was worth buying it at launch.if you worked on it early,traded in some games you were no longer going to play,and road out the droughts that happen to every system's post launch period,it paid to get ps3 with it all included.
sony gave gamers everything,and people thumbed their nose at them.asking for them to return something they gave at a discount(sony lost an estimate of $200 dollars per console sold.and bluray players were going for a $1,000),is just sour grapes.
besides not being cooler than the slim version,the first ps3 was/is the best ps3.
should have got it when you could to play ps2 when you wanted without both being hooked up.or better yet,pull out the ps2 because it's obvious you were playing ps2 games on it before ps3 release.
Thats why Im a PS fan
