article published on 13 June, 2007
After reports surfaced that hackers had cracked the PlayStation 3's anti-piracy software, Sony America has declared that it will "aggressively pursue" anyone who is caught doing so. They have said the activity will merit legal action if caught.
"Unfortunately, hackers will try to exploit any hardware system software," SCEA spokesperson Dave Karraker said.

noob alert....or just idiot alert. If someone is going to hack a $600 system, then the primary reason would be to play backup games that were made for that $600 system. Emulating an ancient system would probably be a Hard Drive homebrew afterthought. Heck, I didn't want to burn Sega CD discs to play on my modded XBOX, even if it could be done.
I have to say that duckNrun's comment about boosting sales could very well be a possibility. Once an official working firmware hack is released, consoles will start moving off the shelves IMO. I know I'll be getting one.

because some 6$ Sega CD games are better than the 60$ PS3 games,same can be said abotu Neo geo roms on the Xbox,but befor we can go there theres a year or 2 of coding and beta testing to do so I can wait :P
I cant wait till they start making the games support the newest firmware that will be fun LOL
I hope they make a PSX/PS2 emu hack that adds more standard emulation features to PSX/PS2 games,save states and speed hacks would be so fun :X

The very nature of this letter from Sony gives the impression that this is a VERY BIG issue right now (which it is not) which gives the (false) impression that the ps3 is entrenched enough (it is not) for it to even be a big issue...
just more Sony propaganda!
lol
Totally agree.
The PS3 is still not selling.
Ironically most people will buy one once they can figure out if it can be hacked.
At this moment in time, i may cross over to the Xbox

Odd...from what I have been reading its selling well enough,perhaps not as good as the WII or the easy break oven,but with prices coming down theres no reason why it wont do better.
The PS3s momentum is gaining but not snowballing yet, the WII has already snowballed into a freaking moon, I think the 360 is starting to lose ground.
All in all get a PS3 and 360 theres going to be enough lulls between them to need both or a WI.

well the ps3 problem was the price, but now ppl are buying the cheap version. As for xbox the 3 red light off death issue is wat slowed it down idk didnt they say it was a 60-66% rate of them doing that. And as for the wii smash bros and m-kart may being the only reason to buy one but for me the rest of the games dont have that much depth.

From what I have been reading into a solid 30% and maybe add it a extra 10 via refrub the "bukkake'd" units out.
If you are a traditional game you can't go wrong with the PC,360,PS3 being your main system and then backing up with one of the other, PC/PS3 seems to have the best spread and options 360/PS3 the 2nd PC/360 redundant.
I like the wii and all but its needs 10 more games I want and 100$ off the asking price to be worth my money :P

Do you have any evidence to support that claim? Here is some information that is in total stark contrast to what you said.
