Backwards compatible ps4

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago

Hey, is there a way to frankenstein together a console that will play both PS3 and PS4 Games? If there is, I think that would be a fascinating episode into the architecture of the new systems.

    The only way to make a system like that would be to take the entirety of both systems and just combine them into one case as Ben has done in numerous older combo systems. Unlike the systems featured in the game brains episode, the ps4 and ps3 do not share many common components so combining then would be a challenge. Ben also mentioned in the game brain build that he was getting a little bored of just combining systems using this methould, so it may be a while before this episode is considered.
