I don't think people would be -that- upset if it supported PS1 BC digitally only.

Same reason CD support was dropped. Not having to pay for royalties (I think that was their reasoning). But, I think they will for DVD. Many people still watch DVDs. Way fewer people, even in 2013, were still listening to CDs direct from the CD. I think most people that still buy CDs simply copy them to their preferred device (MP3 player, phone, etc.).
As for your second comment, yeah, probably. Personally, I have way more PS1 Classics (from the PSN Store on PS3) than I do physical PS1 discs. I would love if those games, as well as the totality of my PS3/PS4/PSP/PS Vita PSN purchases (even delisted games), show up on PS5 natively.

I guess that answers it! I didn't know the consoles were Zen 2. I was just reading about the new mobile processors on Anandtech.
Christ, imagine Killzone 2's weighty feeling combined with haptic feedback and not-horrible input lag.
This would be a great opportunity to revamp PS Now. All you can eat PSX and PS2 games for $10/month? I'd sub just for that.
That head shot chirp was the best. Plus Radec yelling at you

If we do get full BC on PS5, I hope we get EyeToy (PS2) and PlayStation Eye (PS3) camera support. Maybe a new camera that supports all of the camera based games (especially PS Move games).
For me, my favorite exclusive MP games/modes on PS3 were Killzone 2, Resistance: Fall of Man (specifically referring to local co-op/split-screen), Uncharted 2 and 3, and of course, Warhawk.

Honestly me too. UC2/3's multiplayer was amazing. KZ2 multiplayer was flat out incredible. Gosh I loved it. KZ3 multiplayer was great too. I sadly... sadly... did not get a chance to play warhawk which seemed amazing. But starhawk was great too and a lot of fun.
Sonys multiplayer games last gen were fantastic and sadly they didnt manage to do as good as a job this gen. I hope we get a new killzone
As for Warhawk, I got to play it one last time via PS Now. It was such a nice blast from the past for me.
Man oh man! :O
Yessss!
So fucking good!
Talking about KZ MP, I don't think camping was ever an issue either. Playing Warzone everyone was consistently on the move.
Yeah we need KZ MP back.

Could tell that the leak is fake just from seeing this:
· New Motorstorm Title from Codemasters (2021)
Both because my heart couldn't take it and I think Sony has thoroughly burned bridges with ex-Liverpool & Evo staff, then Codemasters themselves stomped the burning embers into the ground after acquiring Evo and executing them themselves.
Why did Sony & Codies have to wombo-combo Evo :(

You know I tried but I was soooo laggy for me I couldn't do it. Really hope for a PS5 version.
He's probably too busy putting everything together for the new thread or mods/admin agreed to let the thread run longer.
You guys won't get another Killzone. They've never been very successful. Especially compared to Sony's/Guerillas recent titles.
"Assassination. You are the target!"
It was a kill chirp, though. If it'd been for headshots only I would've heard it a lot less.
You could get trapped in spawn on Tharsis Refinery. But the bigger maps it was a lot harder.
There were two chirps actually. A normal chirp for a kill, and a higher pitched headshot chirp
Love the chirp
You'll never get full BC because of PS2 and PS3. A lot of games just require individual hacks to get working.
Slight off topic ! Nvidia is going all out for next gen (20-16gb VRAM)

Thanks, I don't want to just copy and paste OT9 and call it OT10. I try to add new information and add my own speculation.
It will be up in around an hour.
Fuck yes, the chirps were so satisfying!!! I hate fps, but man kz2 was so good.
Dude you are totally above and beyond. I salute you sir.
I see OsirisBlack says no dev he has spoken to confirms any BC outside of PS4... but, that could be a huge bombshell for Sony and that may just be them keeping it under wraps. Also, dev kits or white papers dont need to talk BC with developers, they don't need to know anything..
Hopefully by then SE have finally mastered their Luminous engine and give us visuals akin to their CGI projects like Kingsglaive for example
At this point I feel like folks are putting bullshit leaks out there to bury any real, actual leaks.
Assuming that's what FFXVI uses. IIRC, all we know about Luminous Engine usage at the moment is that Luminous Studio is making a new IP with it. FFXVI may very well use UE4.
People actually pulling up reddit posts with 0 upvotes or any proof that they're real. People are stupidly desperate.
that's what I'd like to know.
He is also alluding to something Capcom and Konami related..
He wrote something along the lines of
Who's games do you like more?
Capcom
vs
Konami
?
For what it's worth...
could be nothing.
That leak is so fake and non sensical. They wouldn't release reboots of both Killzone and Socom on day one. Good lord just think how a marketing department thinks when making leaks up
Wait really? Could've sworn that I read something saying that SE had trouble utilizing their Luminous engine to its full potential when developing FF15 due to the fact that it was really advanced and by the time their next few projects get developed LE would be ready to use to the max, using UE4 when by the time FF16 releases (probably in the next 4 - 5 years knowing SE) the Luminous engine should be fully operational to its limits for next gen sounds odd to me.
Well you may be entirely correct, I don't know. I'm just saying that we don't know for sure. I heard the same things about Luminous, that it needed more time and more powerful hardware. On the other hand, they could've decided that UE4 was just easier to use. I'll be interested to find out, and I would love to see FFXVI get announced at the PS Meeting.
