More Xbox One update news at E3 2014

Microsoft's Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb has stuck up for Xbox One's operating system and interface,

assuring Redditors that "we will continue to add more and more features to Xbox One - features you've seen on Xbox 360 and new ones that are only possible on Xbox One". Adding features from Xbox 360 isn't as straightforward as hitting "CTRL+C", however.

Avatar Xbox 360 for Xbox one x

Could not you integrate something like an emulator (as software) into the consoles?

In essence, that is what Microsoft is doing with Xbox One's back-compat feature. The back-compat file includes emulation software to turn Xbox One into a virtual Xbox 360 or original Xbox.

searched this error code on my Xbox in the Xbox assist feature. Turns out there is some maintenance or problems going on and it says “waiting is all you can really do”

Your not understanding what he is saying. Yes that 360 was a fraction of what it is today but that was also 2005 this is now 2013 we expected the xbox one to have the same great features the 360 has and build on them. Also i they didn't do a dead stop and
do a u-turn they would of lost alot of the fan base to ps4. because who wants a console that you can't resell games once you get bored of them. Its just dead money.

No. Games coded for the PowerPC based Xbox 360 will not work on the x86 based Xbox One.
