It’s not just a Sony issue, it’s also an EA & Licensing issue. When Microsoft released SSX 3 through BC on the Xbox One they actually had to pay over $100k-200k just in licensing fees for the Music on top of making a deal with from EA who still would be making the majority of the profit from any current purchases as they still fully own the rights. So basically we’re just lucky that Microsoft were actually kind enough to just fork out the cash without expecting any direct return on their initial investment just to let us play the game again on modern consoles. (not just kindness as BC is a selling feature but you get the idea) Sony in their current arrogant state would never go to the lengths Microsoft did, Sony currently believes that most older games are worthless and every game going forward should be comparable to a big budget movie. So until that mentality changes from upper management, expect Sony’s current trend of treating older games like worthless trash to continue.
If Sony did backwards compatibility nowadays for PlayStation games from the PlayStation 1-2 & 3 on the PlayStation 5, I would buy a PlayStation 5 in a heart beat, rather than Xbox series x, because I personally prefer older games.. I really do, because they were just more unique and still hold up surprisingly well, sometimes even better than the days nowadays. Tripple A gaming is a joke mostly now, but despite that there’s also another reason why I really like playing older games, I missed out during those days, because I was a kid, never had an original Xbox only an Xbox 360, I played a lot of great games mostly just the Halo games, but thanks to backwards compatibility I been able to experience games that I never would’ve been able to experience unless I bought the original hardware, or I either buy a PC and emulated them …however I do gotta say backwards compatibility ain’t the best it could’ve been ..like obviously Microsoft did the best they could, so they did get a handful of games, great games too, but.. maybe they could’ve added a few more before they unfortunately stop with the whole backwards compatible thing, it’s also a shame a lot of those games were delisted, and that means you have to buy a physical copy if you wanna play the delisted games, so some greedy people take advantage of that fact and overprice the games because they know that it’s backwards compatible on Xbox, but only via having the disc, it’s a shame though to think.. eventually a lot of old games will be lost to time, because consoles eventually stop working, or disc and cartridges break or get scratched, or possibly even rot, making them completely unusable, that time will eventually come, and if you wanna play them.. man I can only imagine how much people will be charging, but maybe I’m overlooking things.., and maybe during that time a lot of us move on from games, and instead move on to something new.
@@astr0sauce I used dolphin emulator (GameCube/Wii emulator) but the game also works on Aethersx2 (PS2 emulator) I don't know if you have a phone that can run it though. But nowadays I play it on a PC emulator instead, but it's possible
while I agree with your sentiment strongly, the truth is that all of SSX source files are gone and destroyed since 2013-2015 somewhere in there. no one really knows what happened other than a few insiders.
@@damienlc8895 I don't know if it's true but apparently the game code and assets were lost or deleted. I have doubts though cuz there's some SSX code used in Skate 3, meaning at least one studio or dev has source files.
@@benjaminhanma772 source files are the original code files used to create the final finished game. from what I know, if they wanted to remaster ssx3 with improved graphics and new controls on modern consoles they would need to update the source files to make those changes. without the source files they would need to start over and it would be more like just making a new game entirely.
Bro leave it this way y know? Id rather die then encourage these companies to get their greedy hands on old works of art like thisbif we can do it ourselves. Theyd ruin it and theyd make it impossible to get old versions, and theyd probably tell ever website hosting the original soundtracks to take them down.

Do you have a source for this? I‘d be interested in reading into this.

Sad how they won’t do it, at least you can play SSX3 on the Xbox with backwards compatibility
Just saying, I can run this game on my PHONE. Porting this game to consoles would be easy money for them
yo how

It’s probably just licensing issues
Licensing has been the death of many great retro games on the digital front
