Wow, what an M$ fanboy

[FAMY2]

But what he said is all true.   

[bluaki]

so is the 60gb ps3 a redesign from the 80gb ps3? 

What's your definition of a redesign? Having a body/case/chassis that, ignoring external connectors and removable covers, has a different shape and size?

Any other definition, like nontrivial differences in hardware features intended to replace the previous console version, would include both cases of backwards compatibility loss.

but I guess even the Gamecube has similar differences between its versions, considering the digital AV port was removed.

region locked

As was expected, considering they've never had a region-unlocked console and even the handhelds have become region locked ever since DSi

The Super Nintendo had could play Japanese games.

Are any of the crossover games going to actually be different graphically than PS3/360 games?

[Classic]

It depends on the company, Aubrey. Some are upgrading, but for some reason EA's game are downgrading.

[Hiro]

multiplatform games rarely look substantially better on more powerful consoles anyways

"supposedly" means it won't but they want you to hope it will
