| Dr.Grass said: Backwards Compatibility IS NOT huge and HAS NEVER been. HOW MANY PS1 games did anyone play on PS2!? Even with the improved textures, this feature was hardly ever used after the console was on the market for 2-3 years. Sure it's fun to replay FFIX, but those that want to do that already have a PSOne don't they? EVERY gen so many people are clamoring for this shit without thinking that in 2 years they're not going to give a flying rat's-ass if it's there or not because a 2nd hand PS3 will be $75. Really, I wish we could just put this one to bed. |
You are already a Sony gamer, but if Sony wants to get new gamers backwards compatibility would be really necessary. There are many 360 users out there who wants to play Uncharted or The Last of us, but they will surely not buy a PS3 at the end of its lifecycle. If the PS4 is backwards compatibel it would make the decision to buy a PS4 much more easy for many gamers.
Gamers that are willing to buy more than one console buy a Wii U and a PS4, or a Wii U and a Xbox One, perhaps some people even a Xbox One and a PS4, but dead certain not consoles that will have so much in common like PS3 and a PS4. The place under the TV restricted.
