Taint Please - Playstation 4 Announced.

It might be of interest to people who are new to Sony (like me - have a 360) consoles if the back catalog for the PS3 was also available for this platform.

I agree, if you have the old console already it'll probably have less bearing on your buying decision.

I've never really understood the obsession with backwards compatibility.  Your PS3 doesnt stop working the day you buy the PS4 and it's not like they're so big storing 2 of them should be that much of an issue and I would rather they spent the time and power on new shit, instead of making old shit work on the new platform.

I suppose some people might sell one to buy the other but that is a them problem, not a Sony problem.

Well it is a little obnoxious to either have to unpack the old one when you want to play an older game or as lusti said, fitting them both into your cabinet space.

Meanwhile on the PC - you can go for quite sometime before you have issues running older games on your newer machine.

I think there's no hardware reveal yet cause Sony is gonna announce the Kickstarter tomorrow
