Sony's new PlayStation 3 can't play some of the games designed for previous generations of the popular console, the latest misstep for the stumbling electronics company as it faces off in a crucial, three-way war with Nintendo and Microsoft.

Sony Corp., which has fallen behind in key products like flat-panel TVs and digital music players, badly needs a best-seller in the PS3. The console went on sale here to hoards of eager fans over the weekend, ahead of its U.S. release on Friday.

On Tuesday, the company acknowledged the console won't run some of the 8,000 titles designed for previous PlayStations -- even though the PlayStation 3 was billed as being fully compatible with older-generation games.
