Despite news of backward compatibility on Xbox One, Sony still doesn't plan on implementing similar technology on PlayStation 4.

"The announcement didn't change," Sony Computer Entertainment head Shuhei Yoshida told Polygon. "I don't think we will change our approach. The PlayStation 4 doesn't have backward compatibility."

"Backward compatibility is hard," he said. "I won't say we'll never do it, but it's not an easy thing to do. If it was easy we would have done that."

Edit: Thread title change.

Where does that say they wont consider it?

Well the 360 is easier to emulate than the ps3.

Anyone who wants to play ps3 games can pick up a console for $250 black friday

Ive seen a lot of comments on engadget and the verge about how this is a game changer, but honestly both those communities raved about the xbox one when it first launched.. soo... not exactly representative of the market.. lol

Shuhei Yoshida never said that they "wont consider backwards compatible for PS4" He said it's not easy to do.

fix the title.

Well, what would they remaster if they did?

Why does the article states the litteral opposite of your title ?

"Sony wont consider backwards compatible for PS4."

"I won't say we'll never do it, but it's not an easy thing to do. If it was easy we would have done that."

No shit. That would directly clash with PS Now.

Nah. PS Now is like its own platform because it works on other devices.
