omg what
Its actually a copypaste from wisselkoers.nl lol
Not transferring PS3 psn purchases is a big hit. That’s pretty devastating.
Not possible to use Dual Shock 3 controllers
You couldn’t use the previous Dual Shocks on PS3 either. Same for the Xbox 360.
So what’s the big deal?
you could with a thing mostly
say again?
but regarding OP.
Yay.
How you are so sure that they are not revealing the play station 4 this meeting. There are lot of people who are looking for the new version of play station and they are expecting some more great features in it like they give in play station 3.
Worst. Bot. Ever.
Google, I am disappoint. Switching to DDG.
That’s bullshit about the psn. If they really cared, they’d make it work.
When PS3 came out it could emulate both Ps1 and ps2 titles.
The wii could emulate titles from gamecube, snes, nes, even fucking atari systems. Even the WiiU can transfer all the shit from your old wii via wifi.
Microsoft started the whole account thing with the original Xbox so my gamertag works universally on all their live-enabled shit. If I play Halo 2 or Fallout 3 on my computer, the achievements will display to my friends playing Xbox.
When they remodeled the 360 you could spend 15 bucks on a cable to copy all your crap from your old one.
Emulation/Backward Compatibility isn’t some impossible godlike task, and if you can’t afford to get some assholes working on that, at least take 6 hours to set it up so saves can be transferred.
^thank you. I really don’t like where the next closed generation is headed.
Fuck, what? No emulation? Or backwards compatibility or whatever?
This isn’t looking good. Maybe I’ll just go with a PS3.
The main reason I decided to buy my PS3 originally was because it was backwards compatible with PSX games.
God damn sony…
I don’t even really care about backwards compatibility, I’m pissed about how they’re buttfucking their customers up shit creek by making them have to buy WHAT THEY’VE ALREADY BOUGHT for the PS4. We’ve already paid for your shit, transfer it over. Goddamn.
Overall though, the fact that you don’t have to be online all the time is a sign that they’re better than Microsoft, at least. I’d take buying all my shit three times over that crap.
Why are you all crying about no backwards compatibility? Just keep your old console and your problem is fixed without having to purchase a downloadable copy.
Choose between backwards compatibility and x86 platform, I know what I choose.
x86 all the way. It’s not like my PS3 is going to disappear in a cloud of smoke the day the PS4 launches. Sony had to pay the piper eventually for going with Cell, at least they’re owning up to that mistake and moving on.
