the same reason people pay for HD remakes.

Sony needs to drop exclusives and we need them to come out in the near future...I'm ready to buy a pS4 but don't have reason to until UC4.

Either way it's a good strategy that would drive competition for the benefit of gamers. I see no arm. I wasn't aware of the Fallout thing with Microsoft but good to know.

Interesting

PS2 Backwards compatibility could be something they can use to drive sales to make people buy Multiplat games. For instance, what if the next CoD included a copy of PS2 Socom or Splinter Cell? What if the next GTA game came with a PS2 San Andreas included on the same disk. You pay an extra 5-10$ for a copy of a game and get an extra game. I'm sure devs and publshers will jump on board because it'll be another chance to continue making more money from old games.

I think it would be a brilliant idea. What do you guys think? It can challenge M$ to follow the same in order to not be buried and that'll better the gaming industry and also maybe they'll stop remaking old games and charging people too much money for them. Time spent rehashing games is time spent not making new games.

That would be awesome to see.

PES is better than FIFA as many have admitted. Also, either way, Football is LIFE for the rest of the world, only America doesn't care. It's a great strategy by Sony.

@charizard1605: Metroid Prime comes to mind for some reason. Weird.

Well, this thread clearly went well.

Ok, so where are all the games? What's stopping them from acquiring more 1st party devs to bring variety to the Xbox platform? They can clearly afford it, why aren't they doing it?
