why wasn't the PS4 backward compatible with the PS3 it is because the PS3 was too hard to put in a PS4 but now time has passed you could put a PS5 that could have the whole libraries of the PS4, PS3, PS2, and PS1 especially the last two because they are quite easy to do but why sell you library short just physical games alone the first 3 Sony consoles have over 4,000 games and while they haven't said why they didn't do for the PS5 it is probably a similar reason why Nintendo never put GameCube games in any of the virtual consoles as they always said it was "too hard to do". Rumors come up in a time like this when a console hasn't been shown off the only image we have is a drawing of what looks like a dev kit. When you competition shows off their new product you try and show yours off very close to that time why so you can upstage or blunt the blow from them showing theirs off first and with the game the Sony and Microsoft play every generation every first is key especially at the start. why because people talk about it and they build up hype for the product while some trash on the other because of the waits and delays so in a time like this people start to wonder is something wrong? When ever I get one of the consoles the one I would pick up right now is the Series X as a i know what it looks like and know people's opinions on and it also allows me to play my Xbox one and 360 games which means right out the gate i already have more games for than the ps5 as I have yet to pick up a PS4 and it will be some time before I do as i wait for it to get cheap like 50 or 60 bucks.

These companies will primarily do things as they've planned months in advance, at the time and place they've decided is best.
It's not as feasible to throw those plans out the window as some people may seem to think.
When Scorpio/X1X was revealed and MS claimed the 'most powerful console' title, there was similar talk of how "Sony now have to announce PS5 to counter X1X". I remember seeing several podcasts about it. But reality was that Sony wasn't nearly as 'concerned' as as some people claimed to be. Whether it was genuine, or just trying to throw shade.
The Playstation brand is quite strong. People know what to expect from a Playstation in terms of games because they've always been consistent in that regard. A reveal is not going to change my mind. It's only a bonus. What can change my mind is games.

games are what sell consoles but if i was looking at the two and say i am a collector or i own and xbox one or 360 and i have ton of games for it i get the series x because even if you have a ps4 and games the ps5 only plays ps4 games and at the beginning when things are slow you might end up playing those older games to pass the time meaning that the series x instantly has an advantage.
