Xbox 2 will NOT be backwards compatible

[MrCaine01]

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.
