The key differences with this analogy is that the blu-ray port of old movies aren't sold at full price. They're sold for $10. Also blu-ray players can play and upscale DVDs while PS4 can't play ps3 discs at all.

Ignore the haters prof. I thought your thread was clever. You rock old sport.

well, true...for old movies they come out and they're cheap. But it's pretty rare that an old game sells for more than 30. The ps3 remake bundle of gow1+2 was 20$, ico and sotc was 20$ as well. I'm sure there are more but I can't recall them.

But for movies that were just coming out on DVD at the advent of BluRay, they were sold at extremely high prices even when they had just been released six months prior on dvd. But yeah, it would have been nice if ps4 could play ps3 games.....

Now that I think about it...how many consoles actually had backwards compatibility? There can't have been that many. 3 or 4?
