Re: PS5 Backwards Compatibility Will Play Overwhelming Majority of All PS4 Games, Improved Framerates and Higher Resolutions on PlayStation 5

@PaulDanby156 No offense, but I don't think Sony is really going to be bothered much with the minority of gamers who want it. There will always be someone to take your place or anyones for that matter in buying a PS5. If b/c is such a huge deal for you, then perhaps maybe you should buy a Series X. The majority are going to be looking towards the future rather than the past.

@Apple5 I'd rather have an actual reveal personally, but I didn't expect too much from it considering it was meant for developers. Even so, it was interesting and learned some things from it, and I like the idea that games will have faster loading times. I notice a lot of gamers focus too much on power. There's more to games than just that alone. It appears that Sony is going for balance from what I watched, and I'm all for that.

@Royalblues The presentation was for developers, not gamers. It was obvious. I'm not one to call names, as that never really gets anywhere. However, what did fans really expect from it? They were told what this was going to be, so no one should really be upset. People have high expectations. That is not "excusing" them. That is calling it like it is. I'll reserve any judgement of Sony when we get an actual reveal. Also, it's the internet. People get called names all the time. My advice is, grow a thick skin. It won't be your last rodeo.

@DominatorV93 I only see it becoming a negative if they start releasing just about everything to PC, but there's no indication of that happening. Dreams to PC makes sense considering the type of game it is. Many love game creation type of software, so I can see it being huge on PC. Other games like God of War, Uncharted, or the Last of Us, should remain with PlayStation. A few on PC generates interest, and may convince those outside of PlayStation, to buy a PS5.

@BarefootBowser "You are going to buy a PS5 to play PS4 games without any other benefits shown to you?"

I see plenty of benefits, but to each their own.

Fair enough.

"Just so you know though most people don't buy the console on day 1 and will wait until there is a good reason to spend the money or the price is low enough that it doesn't matter."

You act like I'm new to video games(gamer since '86). Lol. I'm well aware of that. However, many do buy consoles day one. I never said everyone does. If so, PS4 sales would be in the hundreds of millions. Either way, as long as Sony does everything right during the reveal and come launch, it will sell one way or another.

@Ken_Kaniff I honestly doubt any real minority will be upset enough not to. Lol. Only the small minority who are complaining online will probably be pissy, but they will eventually get over it and likely buy it. Sony isn't going to be concerned over that. Those who are bothered by the mass of rumors can simply not click on said articles. Isn't hard for me. And when I do, my expectations are low.

Re: Sony Scraps Annual Destination PlayStation Trade Event with PS5 Reveal Looming

@Ken_Kaniff If you're excited, then what's the problem? Lol. I highly doubt Sony is going to go through Wired again for a reveal. Likely it will be something different. What that is, who knows, but I'm not going to speculate too much on that. So what if they want to save some money. As long as they do something that will keep people on the edge of their seats/couches, it shouldn't matter. If the articles bother you, you do know you're within your rights to just simply overlook them, so I don't know why you're even complaining. Perhaps people may be build their selves up a bit, but that's their problem, and not ours. Can't control how people react to news.

As for your last sentence, well...that's simply your opinion and you're entitled to it, but I simply disagree. With a new console, they're going to want to pull all the stops to make sure everyone knows about it, so it's fair to expect there will be a proper stage conference for the PS5. It's okay to reserve judgement, but I don't feel it's good too worry so much either. Regardless, I think we both have our own views, so I'll just leave it at that. I do appreciate the civil conversation.

@carlos82 I don't like waiting either. Most sources point to b/c with PS4, but who knows for sure. I'd imagine it's likely true especially with Xbox One having it( not perfect, but has it nonetheless). I mean if they really want to 1-up MS, they should find a way to get PS3 compatibility. Though I can't see them going as far as PS2 and PS1.
