This isn't just talking about games either, this includes many of the accessories consumers already have. Some of these accessories are already the best in the biz (Xbox Elite Controller, accessibility controller) These will all work with the next gen system and vice versa.

Sony's new controllers don't work with PS4 games, which requires new PS5 adopters to buy an additional PS4 controller just so they can play the "Top 100 PS4" games that will be back compatible.

PS Plus and Now are lackluster, second rate options when compared to what Xbox is offering with Game pass.
Have you actually used PSNow lately? It has had massive improvements since the early days and now has over 800 games.

They are both good services, kinda apples and oranges because of different games. I subbed to both during sales.
