Re: No backwards compatibility

In Response To: Re: No backwards compatibility (cheapLEY)

: No backwards compatability is a non-issue. It was terribly implemented on the
: 360, no one wants a repeat of that. If you want to play 360 games, keep
: your 360. Why is that so hard?

Premise 1: 360 had spotty backwards compatability for some of the games of a system that had hardly any games for it. (My copy of Guilty Gear for the OXbox works great with the 360, btw.)

Premise 2: Given the first premise, absolutely NO backwards compatibility with an *extensive* library of on-disc and digital games from the longest generation of video game consoles ever is a non-issue.

Whaaaaa-

: Also, the used games thing is a non-issue as well. PC games have always
: required an activation code of some sort, why should console games be
: different?

Uh, no. A lot (maybe not the majority, but a LOT) of PC games do not require/have not required an access code in the past. Also, very, very, VERY few CONSOLE games have in the past.

: I think People just like to bitch about anything they can.

There is irony in that statement. And it's your job to find it, gumshoe!
