Xbox 2 will NOT be backwards compatible

my god
xbox 2 will get more @$$ raped then a prison movie by ps3

Once again backwards compatibility question....
 

It seems that M$ doesn't like the idea of making Xenon backwards compatible with it's current xbox line. I got this from an article on Xbox-scene.com

personally I think it's a huge mistake for M$, simply for the fact of how much money we've poured into our game libaries as is. When I got my PS2 I sold my old PS1 and I didn;t lose a single game in the process, so I already ahd something worth playing when I got my PS2. MS really needs to consider it some more but I think backwards capatilbity adds to a system.

if microsoft does everythin that this latest rumor says
then its goin down to heeeeeeeeeeeeell
:eek:

Amen brother. The backwards compatibility is one of the 2 things PS has that Xbox doesnt. It would foolish not to.

yuup
idiots
and no hdd now
ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssstupid asses

I think that not including Backwards compatability is an anti-piracy step, cuz if it was backwards compatible it would be *cough* easier *cough* for modders to hack the second XBox (which is gonna happen anyway, even if its threw exploits like the cube). Looks like M$ is gonna loose this round of the war too.

yea
its cuz theyre stupid
they musta got whatever theyre smokin from bush

my interptation of the article about not having backwards capability is this:

"Hi, we're microsoft! We here in the great MS state have decided that our ventures in the video game market is futile and we thought: "Hey, if we're gonna get screwed by Sony for market share why not screw the consumer as well!" NO hdd and NO playing your current game library on our next gen system! Aren't we great?"

I mean seriously MS is commiting system suicide and dooming Xenon before it hits shelves. PS3 is gonna play ps1 and ps2 games thus making a huge library of games to be played upon release, and it's not like son;y doesn't have heavy hitter PS2 and PS1 games to easily create some extra software sales. Meanwhile all our xbox games collect dust and sit next to our uber-fied boxes doing nothing all cuz MS won't listen to the gaming public.....just like with the original xbox controller it's a stupid mistake.

like topics merged ;)

yea its completely stupid
if it stays this way
tyler, i hand the torch to u
