I don't know how reliable this article is but if it's true, I will certainly not be shelling out my hard earned cash for an inferior console at a premium price.

Nor will I be buying any Sony products in future if this is the way they think they can treat their European customers.

Sony press release

Note how the list of compatible games will not be available until the console is actually released.

It's not the fact that the console will have limited backwards compatibility with titles from previous consoles - it's the fact that it's only the European version which will be limited.

**** off Sony
