Can you play ps3 with ps4?
PlayStation 4 consoles don't have the hardware of the PS3, so they can't run the older games natively. And Sony decided it wasn't worthwhile to build a software emulator to handle the older titles, leaving the PS4 only able to play PS4 games. The PS4 can't play PS2 or original PlayStation discs, either.
