Forums - Sony - Speculation: Will Sony announce PS3 BC tomorrow

I was thinking ever since xbone got 360 backwards compatiblity people have asked when will PS4 get it. I believe the reason why it hasn't happened was because PS4 was unable to emulate the PS3, but with the more powerful NEO coming they have finally figured it out and it will be a NEO-exclusive feature much like SNES-games are exclusive to the New 3DS

Would defeat the purpose of PS Now.

Not really. Those who don't own a PS4 could still make use of PS Now. 

That being said I don't this happening. Maybe PS1/PS2 games.



No, but I wish they would.
Would buy a Neo day 1 if it could play PS3 games.



I wish they did, I think it made xbox gold better value for xbox one owners over ps4 owners, because the 360 games are just so damn good sometimes, and playing them on your main console is just amazing.

Anyway, it won't happen, makes me sad. Because it does seem moving from ps4 forward everything in the future will be BC

I'd love for the PS4 Neo to have PS2 native backwards compatibility or even PS3 native BC. That would be megaton for sure.



Actually, that be a good selling point, for the NEO. Support all PS hardware. Include a USB to memory card reader. It get people to buy it.

PSNow is a rental service available across multiple platforms. Sure, it'd defeat the purpose of PSNow on Neo, but not on PC, PS3, PS4, PS4slim, PSVita, PSTV, Samsung Smart Devices, or Sony 4K TVs.

Not gonna happen. You just heard me saying it for the first time. ;)



I am hoping for this. My PS3 games would be finally playable as I sold my second PS3 quite a while ago. Don't want to buy PS3 again.
