The expectations on Sony at the moment is through the roof. Now people are expecting PS3 components to be bundled into the PS4 at no extra cost? (not sure how else he could possibly be expecting backwards compatability)


Doesn't mean they can't software emulate PS2 and PS1 games

I really dont think emulating old ass games for people who dont want to move on is a priority over all the other things the PS4 is missing.

I'm also not sure why anyone with a PS1 or PS2 game would be disappointed they cant play it on the PS4.

If you buy a PS4 game today, you are not going to consider whether you think PS6 and PS7 will have BC or not. You will buy it and be happy as long as it works on the console it says on the box. Sure its a nice bonus if it works on anything else as well, but if it doesnt its not really "malicious" in any way.

I agree with you, but I do wish sometimes, that it was backward compatible, so I can play TLOU on it, without buying an upgraded version, or having to pull out the old ps3 and hook it up.

Sometimes talented people are also crappy human beings. I think he definitely falls into that category. Still, who really cares about his childishness on social media? What does it matter? He's just begging up to Nintendo because he knows the fate of Platinum likely depends on them. Platinum can't really stand on their own. He's almost certainly trolling, as well--at least, I hope he is, or that's kind of sad for someone in his position.

Sounds to me like he's not concerned with that bridge, with it's weak foundation, and extremely high potential of collapsing.

He's not interested in ANY bridges after countless times on telling people to "f#ck off". XD

That's true, the guy is way too bold.

Is it really such a good idea to start throwing hate at Sony? Seems like he's burning his bridges to me. What is he going to do if Bayo 2 flops on Wii U? If he pisses off Sony enough he'll be stuck on Wii U, Xbox One, or making multiplat games for both.


Firstly, if the game flops, which it probobly will, he'll care about it as much as how all his other games have flopped. 

Secondly, he's been throwing insults at anything that pisses him off. Nintendo fans seem to love him even though he essentailly told Smash fans to F*** off for asking him for bayonetta/wonderful 101 in smash. It's just kamaya being himself :)


I think you underestimate the exclusive buying power of Nintendo owners. It's already garuanteed 200k units, it just has to break 2million, which wont be hard. 

AlsoI do expect them to port Bayonetta 1 to the Wii U (Would end up being the best version)

Because that worked so well for the wonderful 101, right?

Actually I'm not buying a PS4 until it has at least PS1 games on it. I never owned a PS1 2 or 3 so I wanted to finally get on the boat with backwards compatitablility. Oh well guess I'll stick to buying a vita.



Consoles: 3DS, Wii U, and Vita soon. Super Paper Mario fan.

What an idiot! I can't wait till Bayonetta 2 comes out and flops commercially. Then i'll watch his twitter response..


Last I checked, he is not involved in Bayo2's production, so come on, don't wish that :`(



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

TW101 was barely promoted by Nintendo and it was a new IP. Bayonetta 2 has its chances to sell more.

LMAO, you guys are killing me.

 

OT: The last time someone ridicularizated the fact that kamya don't know much about anothers gaming plattaforms was much worse.



"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."

this dude is not fair! sony is doing this for the gamers. why do u want ur old ps3 game if u can buy it new for full price with little better graphics on the ps4?
sony is just fo the gamer, they dont rip u off like nintendo, play wii games on the wii u? those games are old and look bad, why isnt nintendo porting em in HD? and i bet u can play GC games on it with little modding. they are realy ripping of gamers at nintendo...
