You guys gotta come up with better arguments cause all I see is "nobody wants to play THOSE (360) Games for free. Everyone wants to PAY to RENT these (PS) games. (You understand that? You are paying $20 a month to RENT something. Half of those games which can be bought at gamestop or online for less than $20.) And I can play them anywhere too." So tell me, you guys are actually paying $20 a month for ps now, and whatever the cost of ps+ and I'm assuming you all have that garbage psvita (that sees no support what so ever )huh. Because from what I've seen in the Arcadium, no one is ever talking about the vita and vita game threads get NO attention at all. It ain't that hard. Everyone CLEARLY appreciates the ability to play old gen games on current gen consoles. the blind stannery is lame. I like PS4 better, but Xbox was smart with this move and I applaud them for it.

It's still too little, too late in the grand scheme of things. Did you not see my post?

What does the Vita's support have to do with BC?? The Vita is great for indies and remote play. The Vita does have games coming out for it, it's just not getting any big AAA games anymore. Doesn't change the fact that it's a solid handheld that is undoubtedly best for playing indie games but that's besides the point. BC is not really a game changer nearly 2 years later. Day one would've been but not now. PS Now if as it's supposed to work will work on PS3s, PS4s, PS Vitas and TVs and tablets. That's more like netflix vs BC. It's like saying why pay for netflix when you can go out and buy said movies. Some games don't take long to beat. Games don't cost frigging $1 like y'all make it out to be. If right now PS Now suddenly had every PS3 game on there and for $20 a month I can play practically 90% of the library, I'd get it simply because it's convenient. I'd rather not go out and buy a PS3 to play one or two games. If I could pay $20 for a few months of PS Now and beat like 5 games and get it over with, i'm happy. I'm not saying BC SHOULDN'T come to PS4, I'm just saying if it does come i'd rather it be an emulator for PS1/PS2 that can upscale the graphics and clean up the graphics a bit like PCSX2. I'd happily love that to happen. PS3 architecture isn't the same as PS4s so if they can't because of that, PS Now will have to do.

If BC was introduced, cool I'd probably buy that one or two games I want to play and keep it movin. PS Now just gets you to try out games you probably wasn't looking to try. Sort of like Netflix. The fact that it's right there is something.

Sony should incorporate PSnow into PS+ allowing users to access maybe like 2 games a month or something. If you want more than that then you have the paid tiers

I agree, I want to be able to pick a game to play for a month. Just 1 game and PSnow would be the shyt.

Meh, Sony don't need to do nothing. BC is overrated, I had BC on my launch PS3 and I might have played a PS2 game on it once or twice. We are. now in the middle of the gen, nobody checking for last gen games any more, sure this may help some 360 folk move to X1, but that's about it. They shoulda had this at launch, now it doesn't matter:yeshrug:
