You're absolutely right. It would suggest people care more about 7th/8th gen BC vs 5th/6th gen. I've argued many times that the 7th gen had a massive number of notable games, far more than previous gens. I essentially feel the same about the 8th, now a lot of ground breaking content but many notable titles and online experiences.

It doesn't really matter if BC brings sales per se, everybody wants it. You only focus on it sales because you're seemingly bitter PS4 lacked it. "But... but... sales!"

"since both consoles will have it that won't really be much of a differentiator." This implies mentioning BC is moot since both 9th gen consoles have it. Their goal is not simply focusing on differentiators, they are getting people hyped about what their BC will do.

There may be significant differentiators on how BC is handled and what improvements are available. Both simply offering BC doesn't exactly make them equal. So again, I'm curious to see what Sony is going to offer for BC given I have a large collection of PS4 games as well.

Yes I'm so bitter about it that I praised the XSX BC implementation... sure keeps looking at the hatred you have for me to distort your thoughts.

The reason I brought sales is because this is a sales forum. If I were to behave like you I would say the only reason you are so defensive over the comment is because you are bitter about Xbox sales, right?

I stopped reading after you admitted you were bitter. Har har har...

This is technically the Microsoft Discussion section. You confused it with Sales Discussion.

Anyway, I think we agree BC has been getting more attention in recent years... because there is significant interest in more modern content being available on BC. So comparing it to PS3's BC is pointless. There are PS1 and PS2 games I adore, but more people would be excited about PS3 emulation on PS5.
