OH?

 

[Hanbei]

... comes great responsibility?

 

[panda-zebra]

Sorry, Jim had to go take a call

 

[Desfrog]

So multiplayer games on both gens will let you play together? Not surprising tbh

 

[Mezoly]

Jim is not our guy!

 

[TheRulingRing]

I would hope this was a given and not even a point of discussion lol

What even is the point of backwards compatibility if you couldn't play with your friends on the older console.

 

[Expy]

Yep, for third party games this is going to be more prevalent.

For first party, it won't for the most part, outside obvious things like MLB: The Show, etc.

Pew pew!

Sony promises its upcoming console, often referred to by fans as the PS5, will share saved games, have backward compatibility and more.

I know you're making a funny but pretty sure they're talking more about backwards compatibility here.

 

[Burrman]

But they won't be able to take full advantage of the new hardware. It's gonna be held back by old CPUs.

jk

Wait is the reason this old news has been dug up because there's a suggestion that this is the same as Microsoft initially planning no next gen exclusive games?

Because I think anyone who has interpreted it that way needs to brush up on their reading comprehension.
