Backwards compatibility sounds nice on paper but the fact of the matter is that no one wants to play old ass games. They're old for a reason.

I can play DOS games from 1987 on my normal computer, so why should I not be able to play a PS1 game from 1996 on the PS4 or 5?

False.
Just played Fatal Frame trilogy and RE1:DC on my PS3 fat. It was glorious.

some sony dev recently posted on twitter that the reason they didn't do it was probably due to licencing issues and other complications that would stop them from selling old games again.

tl,dr they can't make money from it

>the fact of the matter is that no one wants to play old ass games
that's simply not true

Speak yourself. I’m having a blast discovering old games that I missed out on.

I'd say try harder, but seeing how people are still falling for this, keep at it I guess.

You can on a PS3 so who fuckin cares at this point

Speak for yourself. Older games have more going for them than the newer ones.

I play 360 games all the time on my xbone

nice try tho

seething sony pedo resetera tranny

sony is kill

I play 360 games from time to time like Deadly Premonition, and sometimes there's nice little tweaks to them like V-sync enabled on Xbone. It's just a shame that after the PS3 Sony just stopped caring about backwards compatibility.

breaking news, user single-handedly destroys the concept of vidya classics. from other news, /vr/ on decline, deus ex reinstall rate drops to zero

imagine the fun times if gaben suddenly uninstalled all TF2 copies remotely

Not a just a zooner but a Mac using zoomer

>no one wants to play these old games
>omg a remake I can finally play x
I'm convinced zoomers could get shot in the head and go about their day as normal

backwards compatibility is the feature I am looking forward the most next gen

I cannot wait to be able to pick up any and all legacy games and be able to play them on the latest console

Buying shitty ports is not BC. Fat PS3 was the last console with BC

Why play new games that are marketed towards zoomers when I could play older games that are actually worth spending my time on?

>Nobody wants old games
/vr/ says hello

>Buying
you can literally use the xbox disc on either the xbox 360 or the xbox one

good bait, congrats on the yous

see

Nobody cares about xbox retard

old games are good memory trip and nostalgia and sometimes you wanna have that, however most times if you can play an old game you won’t, it’s more like a trophy thing that you want to have but don’t actually care to play it, at least for me that’s the case.

uhhh
>in this thread

but uh, you keep buying digital only ports..

I think having the previous generation able to play on the new consoles is a good idea as it helps with people deciding to upgrade though don't really think its all that necessary for anything beyond that
don't really know what all goes in to making a system backwards compatible beyond that
if you're keeping around your old ps1 or xbox games you probably have the system for them anyways

Keep buying playstation remasters you ugly stinky nigger

>They're old for a reason.
High IQ.

At least half of all games recently have been ports, remasters, remakes, or collections of old games.
