is it that fucking hard to emulate ps3 games on ps4 and ps5? i managed to play a couple of ps3 games perfectly on my ps4 even tho it was streaming, but why the hell can't the ps5 fucking play ps3 games?

Different cpu architecture and an order of magnitudes more power needed to simulate calls.

Also Sony wants to sell you playstation now, as in, now pay us again because we think you're so retarded you don't know software emulation of ps1 and ps2 is more than possible on the ps4.

Pretty sure it's because PS3 used a retarded proprietary CPU architecture or some shit like that

If PS5 is backwards compatible with PS4, isn't it stupid to just make PS5 games have PS4 versions of them? I guess you could argue with the chaotic pre-order situation and massive install base of the PS4 but it certainly isn't going to sell the PS5 hardware that much faster with major games also being holdovers from last gen. They could still do that but knock the physical version off the last gen and make it digital only. Then if you want the PS5 upgraded version, then you link your account from PS4 to PS5 and get the digital upgraded version for that. This would apply also the xbox series x as well. I don't see the benefit of cross gen games other than hampering the next gen experience.

Well, the lack of PS4 'backwards compatability' is nothing but a business decision, as the PS4 was based on modern computer architecture, as is the PS5. It would take a few hours of work to play PS4 games on the PS5. PS1/PS2 games could not only be easily emulated by their own emulators, but they even had a cheap little chip in the PS3 to play those games natively, which would cost just cents to manufacture today. PS3 game streaming implies that they already have an efficient way to emulate PS3 games, because otherwise they'd require an enormous farms of PS3s hooked up to stream said games, which would be expensive and nonsensible.

I guess to break it down, you can't play games because they don't want you to. They want you to buy their new lineup of $70/€90 games. $20 Demon's Souls discs would cannibalize sales of the $70 game they want you to buy. It's purely because they want your shekels.

maybe it's because of the PS3's architecture

as far as i know, physics, textures, polygon count, audio, etc were all handed by their own dedicated engine while the 360 and PC handled everything with just on engine

that is why it was hard to code for the PS3 and many games looked better in the 360 despite the console being less powerful

the PS3 design was more powerful, but more expensive and devs prioritized multiplatform development, only Naughtydog managed to squeeze juice out of the PS3

ps3 had retarded architecture - emulating that would be a nightmare

speaking of, not even my 3950X can run every PS3 games at full speed. You'd need specific intel instructions here to emulate better, which AMD doesn't have

You aren't running PS3 games on a PS4 with PSNow. Sony literally has PS3s in server farms that run the game, then stream it to your PS4.

I it's current state, PS3 emulation requires more resources then what the PS5 will have. It wouldn't be impossible and I'm sure Sony could do it if they really wanted.

You should be more pissed about it not playing PS1/2 games. You could emulate that shit on Pi at this point.

I'd recommend it. RPCS3 is really coming along nicely, but I'd say it's certainly not ready for most titles yet. PS3s can be had for pretty cheap these days, so if you really wanna play some titles that are stuck on PS3 still, I think it's a good idea. If you want to play PS2 games as well, I'd recommend a CECHAXX or CECHBXX, but those are the most expensive models. C and E models can also play PS2 games, but it's basically emulating them, so I wouldn't recommend those over any other PS3. Every PS3 ever made can play PS1 games by just popping the disc in (assuming the laser still works).

If you're not interested in playing PS2 games, I'd recommend a model from the slim family. Specifically, a CECH-20XXX to CECH-24XXX, because the 25XXX through 30XXX mostly can't run CFW, although there is an alternative called PS3HEN. Every model 24XXX and below (including all fats) can run CFW. Plus, if you hack your PS3, you can emulate PS2 games on it, as well as any other console that game before it. There's really so many benefits to hacking your PS3, it even allows you to unlock your region so you can play import PS2/PS1 games.
