No way. One of the biggest benefits to consoles is that developers can make games to a specific set of hardware specs. First Party devs will never be able to push the new hardware if they always have to scale it back to work on the old console.

I do, however, think that starting with the PS4 all PS games will be backwards compatible. Since they've moved to an X86 setup.

 

Edit: Not to mention that all they'd be doing by extending the life of the PS4 is giving people less reason to buy the PS5.

Huh interesting.  So there would be no excuse for my digital PS4 games to not work on my PS5 (assuming they stick to this route?)

No excuse at all. I imagine that any game you buy on the PS Store will be able to be downloaded to your PS5 the day you buy it.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
