Push Square: "There’s no doubt that the PlayStation 4 is exciting for all sorts of reasons, but the next generation system’s lack of backward compatibility remains one of its biggest blemishes. While the manufacturer has promised to explore other methods of legacy support through Gaikai, the fact remains that your entire PlayStation 3 catalogue may never be supported by the impending machine. This, according to system architect Mark Cerny, was a subject that the entire company agonised over."
TopSpin 2K25 Review - After a very long hiatus, TopSpin is back! Can Hangar 13 bring the venerable tennis series back to relevance?
Almost unbelievably, Days Gone has just turned 5 years old after launching on April 26th, 2019. What's changed in that time?
Second act of that game far surpassed the first. Which is why people felt it didn't live up to the hype of the trailers. Personally I loved it. But it was a slog to get your bike and weapons up to skill.
Was gonna post a brick wall of text but I'll keep it short. Pardon my French but f**k the media for the hate they gave this game. If you have a PC to play it on you can get it as low as 10 bucks, and if you have a PS then it's a no brainer. Totally worth a play.
I don't even comment here often but had to for this game, I still stand by my opinion that this was one of the top 10 games of the ps4 generation, I preferred days gone over god of war, horizon and last of us 2, the launch version was definitely piss poor and that messed up the reviews for this game, honestly some games deserve a re-review or post patch review as the metacritic score stays forever but the reality is its not even the same game anymore, the ps5 patch is amazing and the pc version which I play on nowadays is one of the best looking games ever, complete shame that we wont get a sequel, god of war got one, horizon got one, last of us got one, spider man got one,ghosts of tshushima about to get one but this game wont get one, sucks to be honest.
Ps3/360 era had some hidden underated games for me it was shadows of the damned, alice madness returns that deserved more sales and a sequel/ higher scores, and similarly for the ps4 era it was days gone, and dying light 1 that deserved much more love, dying light atleast got a sequel, everyone needs to play this game once and judge for themselves, for me its officially the most underrated game of the ps4 era, go play it if you haven't.
Whether it's entering a zen state during DPS or the rush of dopamine on its completion, Destiny 2's Raids excels in multiplayer teamwork.
I thought it had bc through Gaikai
Look when I first bought my PS3 when the slim-model launched I missed some of the Ps2 games I used to own. I played the hell out of my Ps3 on Killzone 2's online, Mass Effect 2, MAG.......etc. on my Ps3 but I missed some of my Ps2 games.
A few years later I replayed the PC version of my favorite Ps2 game on my PC, it wasn't the same, the fond memories of the game seemed tainted afterwards. I think I might miss some of my Ps3 games but there will be so many awesome games coming to the Ps4 that I will be to occupied in the limited time I have to play games playing new releases. If you how ever are so AGONIZED that you cant play your favourite Ps3 game on your Ps4; for God's sake just keep your Ps3. Sony aren't holding a gun to your head.
Edit: Gakai???
Lack of BC is really a disappointment.
That's what she said.
I see a lot of re-releases via the store.
Being able to run past games via cloud service will not nearly be as good as playing the game directly from console.
At the end of the day, while Sony is offering some form of backwards compatibility, this is still a somewhat veiled way of selling you your games again. Something they are very good at and never shy away from.
