I agree, but that's only because I don't own a PS3. All those JRPGs I'm missing out...

Yeah, most is Vita, but not every gem finds it's way into the JRPG-heaven known as Vita.

not a very good analogy, simply because cars and video game systems are completely different things. a car can drive, and that's all you need a car for. a video game system can't handle a certain video game when the detail, resolution, and fps standards raise. development time is increased, businesses will lose money, and performance and playability will be nerfed just so a couple hundred thousand at best can play your game versus millions of people who play on the new gen.

lol, no matter if you like it or not PS3 and 360 (especially the PS3 since it is bigger in countries outside the U.S.) are going to get support for quite a while longer as they should be.

Why should developers give a fuck though? Sure it would encourage some people to upgrade to current gen, but not everyone. They'd still be losing out on sales and those extra PS4/Xbox One sales they get mean jack shit to them. It's Sony/Microsofts job to get people to upgrade, not 3rd parties.

Pretty much this.

they don't have to spend money on last gen development and the 8th gen prices stay higher longer.

From the developer's standpoint, they can make more money when making it cross gen. Sure it will boost sales for the PS4/XOne, but not everyone will upgrade and therefore potentially lower sales

^This

Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.

Cross gen was never really possible this late in the gen for a lot of games. A main series MGS cross gen would never have happened before this, the capabilities of the consoles were so far apart. Can you imagine MGS4 on PS2?

As far as COD goes they would have to be idiots to not do cross gen with the mass market appeal of that game.

Also your prediction that 360 version of phantom pain will sell less than 100k won't last very long.
