The idea of making everything forward compatible allows Japanese developers to have a dedicated customer base going forward. I think Sony is shifting to more of an ecosystem a la Apple and android. Having the PS4 as a base and the 4K as a premium experience for those that desire that. Everyone will be able to buy the same games and play together. Developers won't have to worry about starting all over again, well until the PS5, but who knows how that will work. It is exciting to see the possibilities going forward.
Yeah, that's definitely a possibility. I hope we have an oficial statement soon.
totally agree that now people will have an excuse to use when there are bad ports where developers are to blame but i guess Sony and MS are to blame as well as they could take a tougher stand when it comes to letting these games release in the state they are.
Well, we live in the era of day one patches and updates which is already bad news cause some games are not ready to launch but they do.
Sony told on GDC they would personally help developers on with PSVR games to assure quality, but they never did this before. I know it's because people's health. We don't have this control on pcs so I think the best help Sony and Microsoft could offer is to not complicate things for developers send their patches. Well, could be wrong I'm no tech expert.
