who uses ps4 anyway it's old news, I am all about the ps5

Well, it's just that you would have to buy the games again if you still own the original games. And I though that was just for PS3 games, PS4 is a beast that could easuily emulate PSX and PS2.

Not that I care personaly (I have no PSX CDs).

And we're still having fun with it.

Oh well, I use my dvd player for that anyway. All it's good for nowadays since the ps3 is much better at upscaling dvd's then my dvd player. The sound quality is much better directly from CD instead of ripping it first. I don't care for the game sounds while playing with music.

i'd be disapointed if yall didn't lol.

This vexes me.

This would actually be rather counter intuitive. Given that Sony is part of the BluRay Disc Association, and while it is not compulsory that those that manufacture the hardware must support backward compatibility for Compact Discs. The Association does encourage them to do just that. Supporting legacy formats encourages adoption of newer formats, and actually discourages piracy.

Not supporting this format would send a bad message indeed, because it gives rise to a logical observation. That actively discourages consumer patronage of physical formats moving forward. After all if Sony of all companies is willing to drop support for Compact Discs. Then what is to stop them from dropping support for DVDs in five or six years, or even BluRay discs in ten years.

That is a really bad message to be sending, because it makes the whole enterprise seem like a rip off to consumers, and if they start to assume that they are going to get robbed by the intellectual property holder anyway. Then there isn't much incentive for them to support honest commerce, and instead will create the impression that piracy can be justified. Since all consumers are doing is robbing from someone who intended to rob from them.

This just doesn't make much sense. Supporting backward compatibility is actually the best argument to be made to consumers to discourage piracy. The most common reason that people refuse to steal is, because they prefer to see themselves as honest and fair. If people begin to feel that the other half is being dishonest, and being unfair. Then the moral contract is breached.

I think either the translation is in error, or the commentator is confusing, or conjoining the standard format with the game format. It is understandable why the games wouldn't be supportable, but the standard audio format should be more then easily supportable.

I just want to play Megaman 8, X4,X5, X6, Legends and Legends 2 on PS4. I don't care how it gets done. Other than that.. I don't care about the no CD thing. I can keep my PS3 around and use it to rip music CDs since that's all it'll be good for when PS4 takes it spot. Everything else I'd want to play on PS1 is already in the store if i don't already own it.

What I really want to know is if the PS4 will support Betamax.

I refuse to buy
