aaahahahaha! sure bro, that's not setting yourself up for 'failure' at all. What a silly thing to make the decision for you. |
Why is it silly? Series X will be fully backwards compatible with all the previous Xbox consoles. I just expect the same from Playstation 5. And it's a feature I'm really looking forward because I'm tired of having to set up 15, 20 or 25 year old systems every time I want to replay a classic (and I tend to that a lot: I love replaying old games). Needing only one console connected in the room in order to play any game I want is something that really appeals to me. Especially in the case of Sony, because unlike Xbox, there are tons of PS1 and PS2 games I love with all my heart and I replay every now and then.
So, that feature alone would make me buy a PS5 instantly. If it doesn't have that, I see no reason to get a PS5. Simply because since the PS3 days, pretty much all the series I care about that were on Playstation became multiplatform. And Sony changed drammatically the kind of games they make themselves. Nowadays they are mostly western, adult, mature-story driven titles that I personally just don't enjoy at all. Sure, there is the occasional Gravity Rush, Astro Bot and Ratchet and Clank... but that is not enough for me. And since I feel mostly the same way about Microsoft... backwards compatibility is a decisive factor for me.
