Seriously, beeing able to play old games wins E3 ? Its nice and all but PS3 was backwards compatible (initialy) and it did squat for the console.

Yeah, but why? Console was way too expensive and look at how well remasters of games sell. Look how PS classics sell to other systems like the PSP, VITA and so on. So don't tell us there is no demand in playing old games. I've read enough on this forum to see people thinking how big PSNow is and how many people wanted titles as classics on their systems. Not to mention that many buy games twice this way.

Its definetly a great feature, but saying that MS wins E3 cause of it is way too extreme.
