I didn't want to talk about The PS5 not being backwards compatible via disc with Playstation 1, 2, and 3 games. I'm not sure why this is a big deal, but the internet nerd rage is almost unbareable. First it was the controller, now the games, next it will be new money being spent versus old money. I'm over it.

In all honesty, I'm not entirely sure why anybody would expect it to have ps2 bc since even the ps3 didn't have that on most models. Then the ps4 couldn't play ps1 discs.

In general, even though the media format is the same, it's unrealistic to expect a console to have four generations of bc. If it couldn't play ps4 games, I'd be calling foul, though. Honestly, I'm not entirely sure why I bothered buying a ps4 when I could have skipped the generation and just bc'd on a ps5... then again, I think I'm more or less done with traditional console gaming. I kinda suspect that a lot of my enthusiasm for that shit dimmed when I saw the industry kowtowing to SJWs who will never play their games anyway but want to force changes that make gaming worse in an attempt to build their personal brands so they don't have to get real jobs.
