Simply put the PS3 had problems playing many of the games in the previous generation let alone what gaming has to offer now. I'm sure SE has firm numbers on how many people are still playing the older version and I suspect when those numbers get low enough they'll push the older version aside. -

oh nice, I did not know that, well I suppose I should buy ps4 once good games are made for it.

Basically if a game developer/publisher decides to lean on Sony's servers and infrastructure, then PS Plus is needed, but if the game maker only uses PSN Authentication and license verification, but provides their own servers (as is the case with FFXIV) PS Plus is not required.Quote:

Honestly if the reason you aren't upgrading is because the ps4 doesn't have any good games, then that is complete bs. I mean ff15 drops in november and there are plenty of games already out with extremely high ratings.
If your not due to financial reasons, a refurbished ps4 cost 175 at gamestop. It will be even cheaper once the pro is released -

PS3 has a long way to go before it's as outdated as that.)
Besides which, we'd have already been told if they were dropping PS3 support in 4.0. More likely, it will continue through 4.0 and 5.0. Maybe by 6.0 they might consider having the expansion itself limited to newer platforms with the base game and prior expansions still supported on PS3. They're not going to cut off PS3 players entirely, though, until the game is over, just as they did for PS2 and XI. -
