Because Sony hates you - both you and me know that could be quite possible to do, but no, they want you to spend more money don't they.... You're right though, they've showed off their generosity with certain games being cross buy, it should be across the board!I understand they didn't add backward compatibility if they changed the CPU architecture, but what I would have like is a way to unlock PS4 game by inserting the PS3 game.
I have my Beyond Two soul disc, and I had to buy the PS4 version to play it on PS4 ... I bought the game twice u__u
same with my Last of Us game, but I only bought the DLC on PS4, not the full game
too bad games are not ALL cross buy.
PS1 PS2 And ps3 compatibility? That be like over $1000It's expensive and not an easy thing to do. The PS4 is already an extremely expensive system to make, throwing on PS3 backwards compatibility would just add to the production cost.
I thought it was possible to get upgrade games at discount price, which is why ps3 games are now $50 while ps4 is $60.I understand they didn't add backward compatibility if they changed the CPU architecture, but what I would have like is a way to unlock PS4 game by inserting the PS3 game.

having old PS2 or PS3 disc inserted to play current gen game/remake/resale/Minis/etc. would be a good idea. (but they would lose opportunity to make money buy selling the same game again...)
Just like with their cameras!Welcome to Sony.
Every gen, they get more anti-consumer and will leech your entire wallet dry.
In my opinion, the PS4 would use hardware simulation to play PS3, just as the PS3 handled backwards compatibility with the PS2. I'm not really sure if I'm correct though.Because the PS4 isn't powerful enough to emulate a PS3 at commercial level quality. I doubt the top gaming PCs would be.
Can't slims play ps2 with cobra enabled?
