And yet Microsoft is able to add it to the Xbone with a single update, for free. Unless there's some sort of catch that I'm not seeing.
If they could easiliy do it we would have backward compatibility from day one, since this was always a major selling point.I have a PS4 and would absolutely LOVE if they introduced backwards compatibility and I'm sure they could easily do it.
Kaju; That'd be a dream and I hope they do that for those of us who don't have a good reason other than those collections to have a PS3. (I do but yeah, it's the games in the house again.)
I think it's really just been a matter of leverage at this point. For one reason or another (Xbox One's initial, yet eventually reversed DRM policy of no sharing games, must be connected to the Internet, being $100 more, etc.) Sony has sold many more PS4s than the Microsoft has sold Xbox Ones.
I have a PS4 and would absolutely LOVE if they introduced backwards compatibility and I'm sure they could easily do it. The thing is, Microsoft needed to do it to gain ground, so I guess the basic idea then is that if Sony doesn't have to introduce backwards compatibility since they're doing pretty well without it, why would they?

Backwards compatibility is either done by using an emulator or the original chip set while emulation is usually much cheaper. In the past the PS2 and PS3 used both methods to play older games (the older models used almost always the hardware solution, while the newer/slimer models used emulation as is the XboxOne) but since the cell chip can't be emulated that easily it would have to built it in the PS4 to ensure backward compatibiliy and that was simply too expensive. That's why Sony pushed those streaming services to circumvent the problem.
Microsoft's reasons for doing it are irrelevant. The fact is Sony CAN do it, but would rather make people buy their old games back. And you're right, why would they when they can just sell remastered versions to all those who the thing at launch.
You know KH3 is not going to be on the PS3, right? You'll have to upgrade for that so what difference does it make having this on the PS4 as well?Somebody,anybody, give me a reason why I shouldn't crash a plane into Square Enix's building right now.
Why shouldn't I personally strangle Tetsuya to death?
Why shouldn't I massacre every goddamn employee at Square Enix?
What makes Tetsuya think he can release this for just a Ps4.
I was looking forward to playing on my sweet PS3, and then he ruins it for me and all other people who can't afford
a next-gen.
(currently sobbing in corner,no joke)

I completely agree with this, I only own a wii and a PS2 and I'm so fucking pissed that they don't release the games to those consoles, what because I refuse to by a console from this generation I don't deserve my KH III? Bullshit!Somebody,anybody, give me a reason why I shouldn't crash a plane into Square Enix's building right now.

So mad about all of this..... I wish I wasn't so foolish all those years ago and got the xbox one! I still don't see why they can't have it on xbox one, considering kh3 will be on it bbs volume 2 should have no problem. the touchpad isn't necessary imo
