Please forgive my ignorance here but, why PS2? Why are they skipping PS3? Or does PS4 already support PS3 emulation?

It's been said 200x.

 

PS3 uses to complex of an architecture too brute force emulate. The cell processor is almost as powerful as the ps4 cpu, and actually has like double the clock speed. Even PS Now is actually made of server racks with actual ps3 chipsets on it.

Hmmm. So basically the PS3 is too advanced for the PS4 to emulate, yet too technically inferior for the PS4 to be PS3 backwards compatible. How odd
