I still have my PS3 not that it gets much play. I guess it would be nice if my PS4 ever dies but until then.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Br1anstrike3K Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 An event to show of the NEW GAMES for ps5 and everybody wanting them to talk about backwards compatibility and UI or the console itself... I just want to be shown a damn game that I would want to buy the system for currently it’s a bunch of rumors for possible sequels (God of war, Spider-Man, Horizon) that are obviously gonna happen but when is hopefully the question that’ll be answered Thursday!! Bloodborne 2 would be my pipe dream even though it’s extremely unlikely (elden ring!) but hopefully some 3rd party games get a reveal I really want to see a new Batman, Bioshock, Silent Hill, etc. just feels like a lot of announcements are ready!!! Same as everybody else I have enough of a backlog (especially after starting this account) that I currently have no reason I see to own a ps5 until they show a day 1 must own game... or the aforementioned full backwards compatibility with ALL ps4 games 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) Looking forward to this! I'm hoping they show the console (I'm sure they will) EDIT: Nevermind, it looks like they will show off how the games will look Edited May 29, 2020 by Ghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DividedByMankind Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Ofc they will show the console on this! But we will have to wait till the end of the stream after all the sports games they are going to show first? Allready pre ordered 2 PS5's ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you 100%. I couldn't care less for it. If you want to play old games just use the old console. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree with this, I own the older consoles myself but I just don't use them enough for it to be a priority. It would still be a very cool feature, but it's not a deal breaker for me either way. I'm more interested in the new games. I will be getting it day one, but I still don't know where to buy it. But hopefully we will know after the reveal. Edited May 31, 2020 by CabDK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starcade_Legend Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 I’m reading the comments of others about how they don’t care about backwards compatibility. Fair enough. But I think you’re not addressing this topic with an open mind. I have been one of the biggest ‘fortune-tellers’ of full backwards-compatibility for PS5 on this site. And I have another prediction: I’m not sure *HOW* full backwards compatibility will be rolled out to us, but regardless...there is no way at all that SONY is letting me play Tobal No. 1, Tekken 2, Street Fighter EX2 Plus, Capcom vs SNK PRO, Fighting Force, Dino Crisis 2, Ace Combat, The Perfect Weapon, The Bouncer, The King of Fighters: NEST Saga, and Urban Reign (maybe even...Genji: Days of the Blade, Heavenly Swird, & The Club?) on my PS5 with updated graphics but with *NO TROPHIES*. Talk about half-@$$ing it...? If you want to extinguish your own fire of hype SONY, that would definitely do it...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a PS2,3,4,5 all hooked up because of no backwards comparability is lame. And if you instead had a Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One under your TV how would their backward plans change your configuration? You would need to only play the backward games the XSX supports(since it isn't real, full BC) or you'd still need all your old consoles to keep access to games MS hasn't added to their backwards list. But the topic is new games for this new generation. Something MS will not make for the XSX for 2 years. That's worse than not letting you play old games on new hardware.

I have an open mind, I also have a very through understanding about how the cell processor and programming on a PS3 works as well as the x86 PS5 processor and how that works. People who are just hoping for PS3 backward compatibility on the hardware announced for the PS5 haven’t spent any time understanding the technology. It’s almost like they think full backward compatibility could be powered by hype and magic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atom1cMoose Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 super excited to see what/how games will play on the future system. just thinking of the ps5 makes me giddy as a schoolgirl. is it just games being showcased during the event? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s almost like they think full backward compatibility could be powered by hype and magic. Seems legit. This was posted on a popular/large Turkish electronics website, last night: https://mobile.twitter.com/rythianplays/status/1266810773420101636 This is all days before the PS5 reveal. I’m gonna repeat what I’ve been saying since last year: I don’t have any technical knowledge on the inner workings of the PS3 or how difficult it is to bring backwards compatibility to their next gen system. But if a small group of self funded/crowd funded individuals not affiliated with SONY can make a PS3 emulator (with 4K capabilities and 60fps hacks) with well over 50% compatibility in around 3 years of development, if their biggest/only competitor has been touting backwards compatibility as a major selling point to help keep them relevant the second half of this generation, they’ve made a point to up-end SONY with the revelation of backwards compatibility will be even more massive with their legacy systems, with SONY having a lot more of a legacy of franchise systems and games being sold, the potential to bolster your online marketplace with hundreds/thousands more legacy titles for gamers to experience than Microsoft, and all of this just a few months removed from SONY having their 25th gaming console celebration...there’s NO WAY that the PS5 doesn’t support PS3 games, in one way, shape, or form. But you seem pretty adamant about your stance. As do I. Might I propose a friendly wager? ?

DaivRules Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 @Starcade_Legend I saw the post and I’m skeptical it’s true. Mind you, I’d be amazed at what would be accomplished if Sony manages and I’m not at all against the idea, in fact I’d love for it to be true. But I’m a realist when it comes to this. I’m open to a wager. PM me the details and I’ll be happy to arrange how I can receive the winnings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s my opinion but I am sure other people share similar thoughts. Do you really think that Xbox Backwards compatibility is the most used feature on the Xbox?

I unfortunately don’t remember where I read this, but I think that’s the reason why Sony won’t have PS3 Emulators in the PS5. Link please, or people will judge you critically. I mean, that.’s probably already happening for such an outlandish claim, but...yeah. Link, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x7251 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 (edited) I'd be happy if they just have PS1, PS2, and PS4 games backwards compatible. It's 2020 now and the technology is there for them to do it. Xbox Series X has already announced it will be backwards compatible, so it would be embarrassing for Sony if they couldn't do it with PS5. I understand it might not be possible with PS3, because of the cell processor it used. I am a very clean and tidy person in general. I do not like having so many consoles around my tv, and in my closet. With the price Sony will probably charge for the PS5, it's not an unreasonable demand for Sony to have backwards compatibility at least with PS4 games.

Parker Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 I understand we're living in some very tense times right now, and while I'm not saying that can't be discussed on PSNP, this thread is not the place for it. I received multiple reports on this thread, so I removed off topic posts, and I'm locking the thread for now. I'll re-open when we get closer to the actual event.

Is it on the Sony Blog or any of their official channels? Did you see the ad on Twitch or are you saying other people claim to have seen it? So there is some ad on Twitch that only plays for 2 people an hour or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
