Xbox One Backwards Compatibility May Eventually Cover Original Xbox

[lifeat24fps]

My PS3 plays PS1 and PS2 discs. That counts as two generations worth of back compatibility, right?

Sigh. There is no and will not be any Xbox Backward compatibility. What there will be are previuos console games ported to Xbox One that will be downloadable if you own the disc.

I'd like it if they made an emulator for xbox and x360 that ran all the consoles respective games.

They cant. Xbox One has a weaker single core performance than Xbox 360 and thus could not emulate it. No, multithreading would not work due to how these games are designed.

Being a man of my word, if this happens I will admit the Xbone to be a superior machine to the piss4 and yet is still to be 4th place in my eyes because it can't play Bloodborne.

I find it strange that this would make them the superior machine.

SHUUUUUUSH! If you expect too much of them at once they'll get scared and run away. Best to take this slow and in small steps. I mean, none to some is something right?

They're doing what they did with the 360, but with potentially more work for the publisher. Progress?

They went from hell no to sure thing. Progress.
