As we head into the next generation of game consoles, backward compatibility is a topic that comes up frequently. Just as it has been for a number of years now, Microsoft is pushing hard for backward compatibility in the next generation, promising gamers that not only will they be able to play Xbox One games on the Xbox Series X, but also games from the Xbox 360 and original Xbox eras too. Sony is definitely taking a more reserved approach to backward compatibility. While early models of the PlayStation 3 could play PS2 and PS1 games (all models could play most PS1 games), and the PlayStation 2 could play PS1 games, backward compatibility is something that Sony seems to be focusing on less and less as time goes on.
