Why doesn't ps4 have backwards compatibility?

>>379941167
Because old games are ugly. Like, why would anybody play those?

PS Now exists. Yes they expect you to pay them every month to play old games streamed.

>>379941167

Because half of PS4 owners were 360 owners and don't have any old PS3 or PS2 games to play.

>>379941167
Judaism.

Because unlike with Microsoft, Sony doesn't have to pad their pathetic lineup with generation old games.

>>379941167
Who cares? If you want to play an old game just use the old system or emulate. Backwards compat is nice, but it's 100% unnecessary.

>>379941167
Because the PS3's architecture is radically different from the PS4 and would be a bitch to emulate.

>>379942615
But PS3 emulation is relatively lackluster and getting one on top of a PS4 is inconvenient and expensive.

Difference is the backwards compatable games on Xbox are actually good, but dont worry, you can still play your games if you pay to stream them like the cuck you are.

sony are lazy

because they're too busy making exclusives

yup.

BECAUSE IT'S ANTI-CONSUMER TO HAVE CHOICE

PS3 had an exotic architecture. But I'm expecting the PS5 to have PS4 BC if it sticks to x86.
