Who's genius idea was it to make a new box that takes up over 2/3rds of your screen when...

Everyone is a genius when the test is bunk.

Spoken like a true genius. Defensive of your trumped up score or what?

That idea is genius. I wish I thought to do that when I had Halo 2 for PC. Unfortunately I think I've uninstalled it.

If Minecraft is as popular among kids as some here suggest I think some box office records could be shattered.But I still dont like the idea of MS taking over Mojang.Generally what happens is the guys with all the talent end up leaving to start up new companies
because they want to make their own games rather than being bossed around.

Actually, MS has been very up front and vocal about the Xbox One not being backwards compatible, from early on. Marc Whitten, in an interview with The Verge on May 21 of last year said that Xbox One would have no b-c of any traditional kind and it was widely
publicized that your 360 discs and arcade games would not work.

"No, there's not," said Whitten, when we posed the question. "The system is based on a different core architecture, so back-compat doesn't really work from that perspective."

He also told the Wall Street Journal the next day (5/22) that it wasn't feasible from a financial standpoint.

They've actually shifted policy a bit by even considering a cloud-streamed backwards compatibility, something they had no plans to do originally.

Bottom line, it was well publicized, and we need to make sure we do our homework before assuming something is going to work when it's been confirmed early on that it won't. I'm sorry, I know that's not the answer you want to hear.

Everyone has own reason why to complain. My is very simple: there is no single word in the marketing sales pitch of X1 that I need to be ready to dump my collection of 360 games or keep the old hardware before I spent 500$ on X1.
