Sony replaces Emotion Engine for European PS3s

Back in February, we reported that the European version of the PlayStation 3 (PS3) will not be sporting the Emotion Engine + Graphics Synthesizer, the same chip that powers the PlayStation 2 (PS2). Needless to say, this will greatly impact the system's backwards compatibility.
One Sony Computer Entertainment representative clarified that the move was to lessen the company's expenses. "The European version will not carry a Sony-made microchip that offers graphic- and data-processing functions for PS2 games, cutting production costs," explained the spokesperson.
However, the Sony spokesperson assured fans that aside from the promised firmware updates, the European version of the console will sport a different chip that will somehow cushion the blow of the removal of the above mentioned one.
He remarked, "The console will still be equipped with a different chip that processes graphics for PS2 games, but the backward compatibility of the machine will be lessened."
