Neowin has updated their article on the new PS3 model having backwards compatibility:
"This looks to be a mistake with the translation, after all.
Member anemone states that the correct translation is as follows:
'This product is not compabile with "PlayStation 2" proprietary software.'
Furthermore, different translation tools give similar results to the above.
Bing gives 'This product compatible with PlayStation 2-only software has not.' and Yahoo's BabelFish gives 'This product “play station 2” has not had the compatibility of the private software.'.
There you have it, nothing to see here. Move along."
It has been ten years of the franchise and a celebration is planned.
Circana data shows Resident Evil 5 as the best selling Resident Evil game in the US, ahead of Resident Evil 4 remake and Village.
So the most successful RE is the one where a white man is killing Africans.
This can't be real.
With the ninth mainline installment looming, it feels like the right moment to rank every mainline Resident Evil game from worst to best.
At first I was like, No Code Veronica on the list!? But then I seen Mainline. The list checks out, but I would personally put 2 over 4.
I'll take 2 over 4 also. And even without a number, I don't see how Code Veronica, my other favorite in the franchise, isn't mainline when it's the actual sequel to RE2.
The original RE was the best. Its not on the list which makes no sense.
The remake of it was alright but should be higher on this list.
me looking at that picture, i honestly forgot PS2 had a disc tray
Of course it doesn't have backwards compatibility. Sony isn't stupid, if people are forking over cash for games from last generation then it helps their bottom line out.
It's just smart business.
hope....
Of course not, how will sony keep cashing in on HD re-releases otherwise?
I still have my old PS2, probably the most reliable console I've ever played games on judging from all the things it has gone through. Therefore, I have no need for BC, I have a PS3 for PS3 games after all..
