Hoping for those games in the Collection to have enhancements or at least work with Boost Mode.It’ll be part of PS+ Collection so you don’t even need your PS4 game.

I’m a disc weirdo, so I’ll be hanging onto it.It’ll be part of PS+ Collection so you don’t even need your PS4 game.
If I said we would like to see performance comparisons you would reply "why would Sony compare their games to the competition?".
I'm asking them to make the consoles available to independent reviewers like most manufacturers do so close to a release. Part of transparency.
Based off what Sony have said it's pretty much the only conclusion you can come to. If your "boost mode" is so "powerful" it breaks game code to the extent games can't automatically make use of it and instead need to patched in for "select" games then you're a noticeable step down on what MS is doing with their back-comp.
Take Sekiro for example, unlocked framerate on both the enhanced last gen consoles but framerate is unstable and basically hovers at 30s and 40s. Based on footage we've seen of the Series X Sekiro is at a locked 60 due to the new next gen power by default. The fact this might not be the case with the PS5 version and instead require From or whoever to patch it bullshit, they just aren't going to do that. You're basically going get the same stuttering PS4 pro version on PS5, that's unacceptable when your competitor is offering what they're are offering. I hope I'm profoundly wrong about this, but based on their messaging this is the only conclusion I think someone can arrive at.
I can understand Sony adopting a "paid patch" upgrade for their 1st party games. It's their IPs which are exclusive to the console so they have a monopoly and they want to protect their value. But to have this approach for 3rd party games is stupid imo.
I know.... I because I support this marvelous saga.If you have it then you won’t need to buy it again no?

No but it's still a form of DRM on Sony's part; if you want to play that PS4 game with the disc copy, the disc must always be inserted in the system.
You can only get around that by copying the game's contents to a drive, but that forces the user to either save drive space and keep the game in their system at all times when they want to play (better hope the disc isn't lost or gets cracked), or eat up some drive space to install it digitally.
Actually now looking at it, is there anything said about installing a PS4 disc game digitally to PS5?
Don't seem like they are pertaining to installing PS4 games from disc onto the internal storage or connected expanded storage. Maybe someone can provide some clarification?
I know.... I because I support this marvelous saga.
I support because of love to the team development. To support them and support the saga.
I would have to assume any "pro" compatible game will run at "pro" settings on PS5. I'd be curious about additional "boosting" above and beyond that, which games, how much of an improvement, etc.Wonder how this Game Boost works. Maybe similar to PRO?

But people told me that was impossible on PS5... different package... incompatible format... bla bla bla.And if you are a PS Plus member, you can also sync PS4 game saves on PS5 through cloud storage.
It means we did not test most games, but think they should work. Which I think is good news, because it seems to be hardware bc rather than emulation which would require individual testing.Some games may receive errors and odd behaviors, please don't buy DLC until you try the game to make sure it works? What the hell is going on here? This is a load of crap...
So does that mean no enhanced patches?
I.e improvement is solely for dynamic resolution games and games with an uncapped/unstable framerate.
Impossible!!! My friend who is a Nintendo fanboy who hates Sony was telling everyone not to buy a ps5 because the games will not be backwards compatible and to get a series X instead!!!!
I wonder what, um, Afro Samurai 2 did that made it not work on PS5. Just academically.
Maybe these gaming sites can stop with the FUD about the PS5 BC support now.
You can play some selected PS2 games.They're not wrong. You still can't play PS1/2/3 games.

Are you serious Life of Black Tiger is gonna be playable on PS5?
Good question, i think technically PS5 GAMES does not natively support PS4 Game saves but devs can easily translate saves between both consoles. That is my thinking.But people told me that was impossible on PS5... different package... incompatible format... bla bla bla.
If PS5 has access to PS4 cloud saves then why devs are not using it on cross-gen games?
Yes... that it is what I'm thinking... devs are not doing the work to read the PS4 save to translate to PS5 save.Good question, i think technically PS5 GAMES does not natively support PS4 Game saves but devs can easily translate saves between both consoles. That is my thinking.
They are technically PS4 games. Lol
Yes... that is why they run on PS5.They are technically PS4 games. Lol

First I thought: "finally some decent, good news from that awful marketing team" then I was let down again, seeing no mention of PS4 Pro at all. I really hope the games that have Pro mode will play in Pro mode on the PS5 as this is currently the only reason I want one. But why is this so difficult to answer without leaving us to wonder? I hope it's not because it won't work like that...

I think I'm confused at this point. Is there at least ps4 pro support for games or not?
The lack of any wording suggesting pro mode is confusing, but then they talk about 4k as if we are to expect it? The ps4 had zero games that supported 4k.
If the original PS4 game have PS4 Pro support it will run in PS4 BC Mode on PS5 instead PS4 BC Mode.I think I'm confused at this point. Is there at least ps4 pro support for games or not?
