The only controllers compatible with multiple PS systems seem to be the PS1 and PS2 controllers and that's it.

Well, you can use the PS1 controllers on the PS2. I don't think that's vice versa though.

I thought it might be, then again I might not have ever tried to use a PS2 controller on a PS1.

I actually haven't tried it either, but I'm assuming you can't.

It would be cool if you could use the PS3 controller on the PS4, but that's doubtful. 

TAMKFan

Yep, no chance of that, ever.



That's no surprise. I don't see why they couldn't allow that though. It's more convenient to give people more controller choices. 

Sony isn't even trying to get the old to work with the new.

Yeah, at least with the Wii U, you can use the Wii Remote and with the Wii, you can use a GameCube controller.

True. Which is why I said it has the best BC this gen, for games and controllers even. Not even 720 will use 360 controllers.

It would be even better if you could use the GameCube controller for all Wii games. But oh well, I don't mind the Wii remote anyway.

It looks like Nintendo is the only one who decided to keep the backwards compatibility. Even the 3DS can play DS games and the Wii U can play Wii games. But I still plan to keep the older consoles anyway.

I plan to wait before getting any of the newer consoles, no need for me to rush when I still have plenty of games on the PS3 and Wii I still have not played. My backlog is getting ridiculous. :P

Maybe I'll get one in 2014. After all, it's launch price will supposedly be cheaper than the PS3 was then.

Depending on the games I get for the PS4 I may end up moving to the PS4 and play the PS3 less.

This is fantastic news, the PS4 will be even better and I imagine more PC games supporting it than ever.

While you're answering questions, here's more: What does CPU and GPU stand for? :PToph_Girl250
"Stands for "Graphics Processing Unit." Like the CPU (Central Processing Unit), it is a single-chip processor. However, the GPU is used primarily for computing 3D functions. This includes things such as lighting effects, object transformations, and 3D motion. Because these types of calculations are rather taxing on the CPU, the GPU can help the computer run more effienciently." "Stands for "Central Processing Unit." This is the pretty much the brain of your computer. It processes everything from basic instructions to complex functions. Any time something needs to be computed, it gets sent to the CPU. Every day, it's compute this, compute that -- you'd think the CPU would need a break after awhile. But no -- it just keeps on processing. The CPU can also be referred to simply as the "processor."

I've thought this for a long time. I'm just more comfortable with its controls and general online gaming.
