Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that, Blu-ray also equals easy backwards compatibility :D

Well, the PS3 plays DVDs like the PS2 did, and look how that turned out.
Backwards compatibility is a lot more than just a matter of disc format. You have to emulate or replicate the entire system architecture.
|
Yes you do have to replicate the systems architecture but this can be done purely by software. Therefor making a PS3 emulator within the PS4 should only be a small task and with few expenses really.
|
Um software only emulation although possible is not easy. There is a reason the ps3 doesn't have ps2 BC right now and that's it. The Cell is an advance architecture with alot of power, if they use a different architecture ps3 BC will be all but impossible. |
I think it's more of the fact the PS2 still sells somewhat and they can port the games to the PSN, or remaster the games in HD and resell them. When they saw how the God of War Collection took off, they probably said to hell with PS2 emulation and hello to more money.
