| DMeisterJ said: Good write-up. But PS3 still has B/C. It's not PS2 b/c, but I don't think anyone would argue the point that PS1 games aren't full of win. So your old games still do matter. |
I love it. Your old games matter, but only if they are REALLY old. But the Sony "core value" was that ALL of your games mattered. "Backwards compatibility, as you know from PlayStation One and PlayStation 2, is a core value of what we believe we should offer. And access to the library of content people have created, bought for themselves, and accumulated over the years is necessary to create a format. PlayStation is a format meaning that it transcends many devices -- PSOne, PS2, and now PS3."
I believe B/C will be back. On Sony's timeframe. When they no longer make money on the PS2. They can't afford for the PS2 to die now, so the PS3 buyer is out of luck. Until Sony decides it is time. Which will be when they decide, just like "this generation starts when WE decide". I don't have that exact quote handy, but it's one of my favorite regarding the decline of sony.
