Why can't Sony do Backwards Compatibility anymore? Were they just full blown greedy to implement it?
>>332333821
I hope you get the shitty console war thread you always dreamed of, OP. They are in very short supply since everyone respects each others preferences.
>buying a new console to play old games on it
this logic

Name one good game on the ps4
Name it faggit.
>>332335142
Bloodborne :^)

>>You can't play your PS3 games on the PS4
Are you stupid? It's all you can play in this piece of shit!
So they can get people to purchase a playstation now subscription.
Which, I might add, is fucking surprisingly excellence service. Couldn't tell any delay when I used my free trial. But the tickets want $20 a month for it. I would pay $5 tops, and that's only because I never owned a PS3 so there's a ton of games on it I never got to play that are on ps now.
>Sony still supports CDs, vhs, DVD, amd vinyl

why is this allowed?

Can't sell remasters if there's backwards compatibility.

there's your problem son
>>332336520
only two of those games are ps4 exclusive

Xbone may be the weaker console, but fuck I get to play Red Dead and my old games again. Funny how the PS4 is "50% more better" but they want you to pay $15 for goddamn PS2 titles.And yes, I own both
ps3 has the retarded cell processor
that's the problem
>>332339926
Sony put it in there in the first place, it's still their fault
Remember the PS3 costing $599 US dollars and overheating like fuck on launch?
Both of those problems were caused by the internal PS2 hardware.
>>332335142
What is that logic even?
If there're no games you want then you wouldn't buy it to begin with
>>332340047
No they weren't. Even when the PS2 hardware was removed it suffered from those problems. Ur a faget.
>>332340038
yes, but remember that the reason the ps2 played ps1 is because they (first) had part of the ps1 hardware there
and the ps3 played ps2 games because they (at first) had the emotion engine in there (another retarded cpu)
they then changed to emulation, but the cell is another story, that's a stupid design that should never be repeated
>>332340047
Absolute fucking lie. Most of the euro models had no PS2 support at all and would still overheat.
>>332333821
Sony figured that people upgrading from a PS3 could just keep their old console around and those who didn't own a PS3 would buy all the remasters so it's a win-win for Sony.
Judging by the Wii U commercial performance nobody cares about BC anymore. Do you really think there's millions of people out there refusing the PS4 because they can't play PS3 games on it?
>>332333821
I can't play jetpack or wordmuncher without emulating. My floppy discs are obsolete. Fuck you.
>>332340889
>Judging by the Wii U commercial performance nobody cares about BC anymore.
Stop.
People care about BC, they just don't care about the Wii U since its marketing was abysmal. Remember all the Xbox fans cheering for joy on /v/ when 360 BC was annoumced?
>>332341150
>Remember all the Xbox fans cheering for joy on /v/ when 360 BC was annoumced?
A lot of good it did in terms of sales, which is all that matters for the companies involved.
Stop blaming the Wii U failure on marketing, it can only do so much to convince people to buy crappy products.
>>332341504
How do you know how much influence Xbone's BC did for games? Though it would help if they marketed it in commercials.
>Stop blaming the Wii U failure on marketing, it can only do so much to convince people to buy crappy products.
Normies don't know how crappy it is since most don't even know it exists to begin with, that's how bad Nintendo are at marketing.
>>332335142
Batman: Arkham Knight. PC port is shit and Xbox port lacks some content.
>>332342370
>How do you know how much influence Xbone's BC did for games?
The point is to increase sales of the console, not the games, and for that BC had no impact on the Xbone. PS4 still dominates Yurop, wins by a small difference in the US and let's not even bring up Japan.
>>332342812
PC port works fine. I played the entire thing recently.
>>332343886
Which is why I find it odd they didn't do much marketing for BC. Although the PS4's hardware sales dominate the market so much they're practically a monopoly (a little contradicted by software sales, however).
>>332342370
>Normies don't know how crappy it is since most don't even know it exists to begin with, that's how bad Nintendo are at marketing.
What was Nintendo supposed to market to normies? Mario Kart? Smash 4? Zelda remasters? Wii Fit U? You know dudebros don't care about these games. The Wii U has nothing to offer to people that aren't already invested in Nintendo IPs, marketing can't fix that.
>>332344072
>a little contradicted by software sales, however
If I remember correctly the revenue PS4 brings to the big publishers is never less than 60% of the total on all current gen platforms. It's not a monopoly on software sales but still damn close.
>>332344454
Well they'd never attract a new market with that attitute
