Is there anything forcing you to buy those games again? Only your peculiar need to play them on a PS3 specifically, instead of a PS2.

I don't remember saying anything about being forced. What I did say is that I would like to play my PS2 games on my PS3, just like I can play my GC games on my Wii, my Xbox games on my Xbox 360 and even my PS1 games on the PS3, something you find 'peculiar' for some reason. Why should I own every video game system in existence to play the games I own? Did you hang onto your old DVD player when you bought a Blu-ray only player? No, of course you didn't because Blu-ray players can play DVDs. Fanboy or no, you have to admit that it's a common courtesy that the PS3 lacks, and that's ignoring the fact that the PS3 had PS2 BC at some point. I'm going to fall back on my "I understand they're a company so profit is paramount, but this is a dick move" comment though. You're welcome to re-buy every game you've ever purchased if you choose, that's your prerogative, but I do not have to like everything Sony, Nintendo or Microsoft does.
