As much as I would love it. I doubt they will.

i know

they have PS Now,they could strenghthen that much more and add games and streaming is future of gaming

but it probably won't even be a big deal as people are so caught up plsying todays game that they might not want old game

as for me,i love backward compatibility and i think it is a necessity and think companies are stupid and greedy to remove

BC is a great feature. I respect MS for doing it.

But I doubt this will have the effect people are thinking.

To be fair when I got my 360 I never once played Xbox games on it. Nor did I play ps2 on ps3 and guess what I don't play wii on wii u. I think people are slight over reacting. Unless the whole off Xbox live market place is available off course.

That is fantastic news, honestly. Nintendo and Sony are gonna have a rough time outdoing MS now.

I hope it forces Sony to work on PS4 backwards compatibility eventually. I would buy a PS4 much sooner then.

Very much agreed. There is no reason for them not to get on it now cause it will definitely tilt the scale in MS's favor.

Oh? Is backwards compatibility a good thing now? I was informed it's a relic of a bygone era, completely unnecessary in this day and age.

Well anyway, hello Microsoft welcome to 2012.

Backwards compatability won them E3? That's... pathetic...

I'm watching their cool trailers and the things on stage and I'm really liking what I'm seeing. But backwards compatability, winning e3...? Really?
