WSJ: PlayStation 4 to Stream PlayStation 3 Games

The Wall Street Journal has revealed that an unnamed source “familiar” with Sony’s plans with the Playstation 4 claims that the next console will be able to stream PlayStation 3 games. This is very interesting news, as it’s been swirling around that the PlayStation 4 will not be accepting used games. This may be the way around not pissing everyone off.

Joystiq’s report suggest “that online streaming of current PS3 games will be paired with new games sold on optical media through regular channels.” A good solution to not having backwards compatibility? Maybe.

Announcements from Sony regarding the PlayStation will be on the 20th. Stay tuned to Albotas for more on the next generation console.

Square-Enix Streaming Sountracks fo’ Free

Don’t want to pay a crazy amount of money for Square-Enix soundtracks? Get ‘em on iTunes for super cheap. Don’t want to pay anything? Check out music.square-enix.com, where the Final  Fantasy and Dragon Quest wizards are streaming select games’ OSTs for free. It’s full of bugs and not-so-full of selection, but if they keep adding games, this could get pretty cool.
