Actor David hater, well known to gamers for the voice acting of Solid Snake, criticized the decisions Sony in the field of backward compatibility. In particular, he expressed disappointment that the PlayStation 5 will not be able to run games with PS1, PS2 and PS3.
Speaking in a recent episode of the PAL Keys podcast, Hayter stated the following:
“I’m really pissed that backward compatibility technology is not used universally. Look, I still keep my Xbox 360 and GameCube in working order, because I have a number of old games that I love. I want to play them, I want to continue to play them. “
“It annoys me when a new platform comes out, and they say,“ OK, old games are all, you have to buy new ones. ” Of course, I understand that this is commerce and all that, but it looks like a hoax, why can’t people who buy Metal Gear to this day insert a disc into their PS5? ”
“I do not receive money from this, and I do not speak on behalf of the performer. I just want to say that I would like to show the game [Metal Gear Solid] more people so that the younger generation can play it. “
“And yes, this alignment would be ideal, but I’m not sure that they will go for it, because we live in a cynical world. Rather, the developers will say: “No, no, you only need to buy completely new games.” But I think this is a short-sighted strategy, and I really want them to let us play [в купленные ранее игры] on different platforms. “
Sony has been heavily criticized by players after it turned out that the PS5 will not support older games from previous generations of the PlayStation, except for the PS4. Microsoft added fuel to the fire, confirming that the Xbox Series X will launch all Xbox One games, including Xbox and Xbox 360 projects running on the console through backward compatibility.
The PlayStation 5 is scheduled for Christmas 2023.
David Hayter has voiced Solid / Neykid Snake since Metal Gear Solid released in 1998. The actor was then replaced by Kiefer Sutherland in Metal Gear Solid 5.
The other day, David Hayter announced that he was ready to return to the role of Snake at any time.
