It wouldn't be until the tail-end of the Xbox One years that Microsoft would switch off of its own unique wireless signal and embrace Bluetooth technology. In this one way, the PlayStation 3 really was ahead of its time.

The DualSense is a Bluetooth controller, so the PS3 is happy to let it connect for sessions of last-gen games like Killzone. The PlayStation 4 was designed to be more restrictive, with only certain games supporting controllers other than the official Sony offerings. The PlayStation 3's Bluetooth support is expansive enough that it accepts controllers of all sorts as long as they also have Bluetooth. Not too long afterward, user LegacyZeroZ responded with the simple answer. Richard Masucci of ReviewTechUSA posted a tweet asking why the DualSense controller would work perfectly on a PlayStation 3, but not a PlayStation 4.

At a time when the Xbox was on top and trying to sell everything proprietary, the PlayStation 3 had far-reaching Bluetooth support, letting players pull any old gadget out of storage as long as it supported the wireless tech. Part of that was stripped away as Sony created smaller and more budget-conscious editions of the console, but another part of that was baked into the PS3's core.

The console's notorious Cell microprocessor made games hard to develop for at the time and makes the hardware tough to work with nowadays.įrom packing in a full PlayStation 2 in its innards to running Linux, the original PlayStation 3 wanted to be compatible with as much of a player's technology as possible. It's an ironic situation considering that the PlayStation 5 supports PlayStation 4 games, but no one seems to be able to reproduce the unique setup of the PlayStation 3. Developers will ultimately follow suit - way too much money for them to lose.Players who have already picked up their DualSense for PlayStation 5 have discovered that they work perfectly well with the PlayStation 3, but not the PlayStation 4. Surely though, we're going to see Sony shift active multiplayer gaming (for their big titles) to the PS4, even if our downloadable classics and streaming apps are kept accessible by being able to login to our PSN account.

People's bought but un-downloaded games will be less easy to install on their PS3s (I guess there may be some way to save the installers on USB memory and put them on when desired on a PS3, but I'm not sure). u/plaidchuck has an optimistic outlook that I would really like to see evidence for, as I wonder about this a lot because if Sony prevents one from logging in to PSN, then the streaming apps (Netflix, Amazon, Twitch, Youtube) will be inaccessible, as far as I know, and that was one of my main draws to the PS3 the second time around. Even without substantiation, that is still a valid hypothesis and not unlikely in the next year. Got a subreddit you want to see here? Message the mods! (It must be PS3 related.)
