but will not be compatible with the ps5 when released

PS5 won't be for years even if they last that far.

Not having backwards compatibility is the main reason why I am not going to buy this console

Why would you not add backwards compatibility?  That's a feature that even the Playstation 2 had, and it's a 13 year old console.

Thank you, Sony.  Will never purchase another console from them again unless they stop being lazy and put the damn feature already

With the launch of GTA5 being so damn close to the next gen console, I really hope they make a GTA5 PS3 and PS4 version. I honestly don't want to buy it for the PS3, play it for 2 months, and not play it again because the PS4 is out and there won't be backward compatibility.
