the removal of PS2 backward compatibility and other components isn't "dramatically reducing Sony's cost of manufacturing" on Sony's behemoth console

the handicapping of the PS3 was part of an effort to "encourage buyers of the entry-level PlayStation 3 to purchase more games designed specifically for the new system."

SCEA的副總裁Jack Tretton說：移除掉對PS2的相下相容性並未大幅減低索尼製造主機的成本，這是一種鼓勵PS3買家購買更多專為新系統設計的遊戲的努力

上面提供的兩個網站對這個說詞的反應都一樣：

having better PS3 software won't work. Nor would working more closely with third parties to help them ship their PS3 ports of Xbox 360 titles day and date, feature for feature.

You couldn't accomplish exactly the same by actually making some more exclusive games which will have release dates closer to the present day?

（想鼓勵消費者買更多PS3的遊戲，為什麼不先試著『拿出更好的PS3軟體』？）
