Okay so as many of you may know the PS4 has recently been announced, and it has been pointed out it will NOT BE BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE with any PS3 games, well there goes the chance of me buying it before the price drop So yeah my fellow fans before buying the PS4 it will most definitely not be able to play KHHD 1.5 which actually had me VERY disappointed Would've loved to have been able to play KH in HD on the most up to date console. Also does anyone think KH3 will still be made for the PS3? I wish it'll be for PS4 just so it could take advantage of the up-to-date technology, but I just know it'll be PS3 and that's also a little disappointing save I don't have to buy a PS4 to play it. I mean the same thing happened with KH Re:CoM with it coming out right after the PS3 and I already sold my PS2. All I know is if KHHD 2.5 is made it better be for PS3 because I've bought a console solely to play KH (PSP for BBS) but I don't want to do it for the PS4 because I already have negative feelings about it. Welp it looks like I'm stickin' to the good ol' PS3. Honestly I wouldn't mind paying a couple hundred dollars extra for the hardware added to a PS4 for the PS3 but I guess that's just greedy business, I don't know, I just feel Sony's already making a couple of mistakes and they just announced the thing. I think there's a chance some PS3 games'll work, but only off the Playstation Network, and last time I checked Square didn't exactly like putting their games on the virtual market (I.E. KH BBS and the PS Vita) and even then the chance is slim. All I know is Sony's already making some big mistakes like not making the PS4 "natively" backwards compatible, because otherwise I'd have no problem any possible way, but I want the KHHDs to be on the same system as KH3, I don't have the money to splurge nor do I want to deal with the hassle of using two different consoles of the same family, it's more Sony's fault for this dilemma than Square's but I have a bad feeling Square's going to get a lot of blame for either having KH3 on the PS3 or having mixed games (the KHHDs and KH3) on different consoles. Also a little side note, but does anyone else kind of find it sad that KH2 didn't get a proper sequel throughout one of its main system's generation's entire life span?

 

tl;dr: PS4 won't play KHHD 1.5, how do you feel about it?

Yeah, but it's solely through cloud, which I don't think Square'll trust and even then it's only a slim chance

too true bro. too true

Annoyed.

PS3 hasn't died yet, I still have faith for KH3 on PS3.

I don't mind personally. I don't have a PS3. I guess it is annoying for people that want to try out the new PS4. There's not much we can do but only "hope" that PS4 allows the game play of previous generation allowing KH 1.5 HD Remix. By the way, Kingdom Hearts 2.5 (When they announce it) and Kingdom Hearts 3 is almost guaranteed to be on the PS3 since Nomura wants the series to be on one console. It is quite a predicament!

Well I really hope so, I want the whole Xehanort saga to be on PS3, and maybe remade on the PS5 in HHDD after a few sagas lol but in all seriousness, I'll be okay if KH3's on the PS4, since it'll just build my incentive to buy one (even though not being backwards compatible is really irking me) but I'd really love for it all to be on the PS3 taking advantage of almost every feature/memory/power of the PS3.

I'm actually glad that the next few KH games will hopefully all be on the PS3. My one complaint about the franchise is how spread out it is on consoles, so having all of them on just one makes things a lot easier. I don't really care about the PS4 to be honest, I don't even have a PS3 (I'm an Xbox360 gamer), I've always been planning to buy one for the next KH game only, so when 1.5 is going to be released that's when I'll grab a PS3. All in all, yeah it's a little disappointing that it won't be on next gen graphics, but I just want the game(s) to play, and them being on one console instead of two would make things a lot easier (and cheaper)

From what I heard it was gonna be backwards compatible? I'd suspect the first few models to be so people don't go "why bother getting this console when I have all the games for the other one"

Either way I just hope they make it cheaper so it can actually compete with the xbox, the main reason more units were sold in the western parts were the early release date (resulting in 50% failure rate cause it was rushed) and the cheaper price, something like a couple hundred 

There are still games coming for PS4 and PS3 so don't give your hopes up.

I really don't want to buy PS4 where you need network for games.

Well if that is true then that makes also sense for non backwards.

It's true, but it probably won't be available for awhile, possibly a couple years into the PS4's life cycle. im guessing at least a year.

Well it's definitely not "natively" backwards compatible which means anything that's a disc not made for PS4 will not play, meaning unless you bought all your games on PSN you're not going to be able play them in the future, at least unless Sony decides to be cool and make it so your PS3 can register what games you bought and make a digital copy for your PS4, but there'd be so many issues with that I really doubt it.

Doesn't matter to me. I'll play it on the PS3.
