"A surprising reportar has emerged from Japan's Ultra One monthly technology magazine. The magazine's July issue reports that Sony will be achieving backwards compatibility on the PlayStation 3 not through software emulation, as previously announced, but through physical hardware."
IGN received its PS3, unwrapped it (slowly) and snapped fotos of the goodies. What did the site's freebie box contain? A USB cord, an AV cable, a LAN cable and what looks like a complimentary HDMI cable.
