Sony's PlayStation Plus will remove 22 games next month, including beloved titles from the Resistance series. This ongoing trend underscores the challenges faced by players wanting to access PlayStation's legacy games on modern hardware. Unlike Xbox, which expanded backward compatibility for older titles, PlayStation has continuously restricted access, leaving gamers unable to play iconic titles like Metal Gear Solid 4 without original hardware. This situation reflects poorly on PlayStation's commitment to preserving its gaming history compared to competitors like Nintendo and Xbox who offer more robust solutions for past games.
It's disappointing to see how PlayStation is handling certain parts of its legacy on modern hardware, especially when its competitors have done the opposite.
When PlayStation shut down the first iteration of its cloud streaming service PlayStation Now, it removed the only way to enjoy certain legacy PS3 exclusives.
Both 2006's Resistance: Fall of Man and 2008's Resistance 2, will no longer be part of PS Plus Extra and Premium starting May 20, 2025.
Microsoft committed to making as many original Xbox and Xbox 360 games compatible with the Xbox One, earning significant goodwill during a crucial time.
