Really i thought they were making ps4 to be backward compatible?

Sorry, I should have put that clearer haha... It is backward compatible, but only through the streaming service called Gaikai I think... I'm not really sure how that works, but if I'm to take a wild stab in the dark, I will say that it might be something like those online games where you have to be always connected to play. Also not sure which games will be available through Gaikai... Surely can't be all, that will be a lot of games haha... I believe we won't be able to play using those PS3 discs, which is what I really prefer since I have no unifi cry.gif That is why I said it is not "really" backward compatible, I meant in the sense that it can't use the PS3 discs.

Yea I'm guessing they will cease production of ps3 game sooner rather than later... But there are many PS3 games from the past few years that I would like to play first... so it is probably worth it for me... Another thing is I very kedekut one, so even if I get the PS4 as soon as it gets out, I'm unlikely to buy new games for RM150-RM200. I prefer second hand games, cheaper. biggrin.gif Economically, for stingy people like me, now just seem like a good time to get PS3 and plenty of used games lol. biggrin.gif So yea, I'm definitely leaning more towards buying a PS3 haha... Maybe a year or more later then only buy PS4, by then PS4 should be cheaper and more used games in the market lol. tongue.gif
