This week on Slightly Civil War, Yahtzee Croshaw and Jack Packard debate whether backwards compatibility is actually necessary for new consoles.
no it's not necessary, nobody wants to play crappy graphic or gameplay with the worse AI!
Ask Sony if 110+ million and Nintendo's 50+ million console sales made BC necessary. Obviously not. If you give it to me, I'll take it. If not, BC wasn't what I was looking for on new hardware anyway.
It's a feature that's cool to have and is convenient in not needing multiple pieces of hardware hooked up. New hardware can make old games sometimes look better.
But it's not necessary when the reason we buy new consoles, is to play new games that take advantage of that new hardware. If new, quality games are coming in constantly, you'll find less an less time to play old games.
For the billionth time.
Definitely not necessary but from a marketing standpoint it's pretty clever. If someone had a console this gen and amassed a collection of games for it, they may be less likely to switch to a rival console if they can carry those games over to that console's next iteration , possibly with advantages like a higher resolution or higher frames etc.
I mean its helps also knowing i can play all my ps4&xboxone games on my ps5 or Xbox series x via backwards compatible makes me wanna buy both next gen consoles even more
The show will air exclusively on Penny Arcade's YouTube channel and release content weekly on Thursdays, alternating between the full 15-minute episodes..
It has honestly been years since I even thought about the Xbox but I decided to see what they had done since I left and what the new hardware had to offer.
lol, i'm convinced but I still would like the set up to compliment these mid gen consoles.
Man, reading that article, especially the last paragraph, bought tears to my eyes. So emotional. The powerful specs of the Beast has bought the author, a self admitted Xbox hater, to come home to Xbox! I suspect many like him will do the same this Holiday.
Just pick up Metal Gear Rising,Rise of the Tomb Raider,Gears 4 and Assassin's Creed Orgin.
Plus I got some old X1 games on the hdd,
Ok MS,Trill Me!
Aren't PA the people who refuse to put the third part of their RPG onto PS3?
I thought PA was always Xbox first type of people.
#1 & #2 were 2 of my favorite RPGs last gen but #3 fell short due to changing the style of the gameplay. Rain Slick was a great series though.
no AVGN is a crime.
