There is a thin line between Confidence and Arrogance. Is Sony really arrogant when they have the history in performance and sales to back up that their method works?

Understandable if Sony were being innovative with there systems, than thats confidants. Anti-consumer practices like these is confidents fuelled by arrogants.

You expect locking gamers out of accounts and not playing fair with the industry is when a company is struggling and desperate. Not something you expect when you own majority of the market share and doing extremly well. They want to own the monopoly. Thats buisness, and they all do it, but we dont have to stand by and accept it.

There confident that they can get away with it, which is arrogance at its finest. Which suprises me how many will agree with Sony because there buisness is more important than the convenience of there customers. 

Fortnite is a goldmine and having the marketshare does not green light these pratices.

Bottom line: There is no successful method here, this is pure $$$. Anyone with the right mind set can see it.

What are you talking? In actuality, it is the most fair thing Sony can do. It gives the competition the opportunity to one up them and brag about another sideline attraction, something it can hold high up above the head, and does, although its nothing you have to put your back into.

Its more likely to be true than not. Not only is the PS4 easier architecture going forward (compared to PS3) , but Sony arent going to risk losing customers with a 'reset' (easy way for customers to move onto a different platform) when their MAU users are not only high, but network services are what is bringing them a chunk of their profits.

Its far too important for them financially not to do.

It isn't

Sony is selling a 20$ a month subscription called PS Nowfor old gen games on PC. With the PS5 coming they can expend it to the PS4 - and make lots more money that way then through BC. Even moreso because PS Now is pure crap

Besides didn't they say early this gen that backwards compatibility was a very often requested feature, but would not be implemented because despite the many demands, barely anybody would actually use it? And even doubled down on this last year, wondering why anybody would want to do this?

Relation. As mentioned, BC Ps4 to Ps5 would be a lot easier to realize, less cost intensive than it was with previous generations.

Regarding your "sources". Ryan was referring specifically to Ps1 and Ps2.

“That, and I was at a Gran Turismo event recently where they had PS1, PS2, PS3 and PS4 games, and the PS1 and the PS2 games, they looked ancient, like why would anybody play this?”

Now, what have those games have to do with Ps4->Ps5, considering the technology used in Ps4pro is capable of enhancing courent gen titles with minimum effort?
