[QUOTE="delta3074"] it's optional dude, why do you cows always act as if Options are a bad thing, they are not forcing anyone to buy it, it's the consumers choice, it's the same with the Ps4, the difference being that you buy a box with the 360 or you buy the games again on the Ps4, BC will cost people Money whichever console they choose. You are also really stupid if you yhink Lems will buy this anyway, they already own Xbox 360's.

Options on MS consoles suck we all know that,options on 360 have include $99 20GB HDD,$99 Wifi adapters,$199 HD-DVD,$60 dollar online play,options on 360 are expensive.

[QUOTE="duranonimo"]This is closer to true BC than the PS4 solution. Never-mind the other awesomeness functions that it will perform. Durango.... Used games - check , BC - check, Illumiroom - check, Kinect 2.0 - check, Kick ass games - check, Media Hub - check PS3.5 (4?).... Used games - check , BC - sort of a check, Illumiroom - NA, Kinect 2.0 - NA, Move - NA, Kick ass games - maybe, Media Hub - NA Durango/PS3.5 Hardware (on par........) :)KingsofQueens

Why the heck is BC so important? It`s not like your Xbox 360 will self destruct at any point. I will simply place my Xbox 720 right next to my Xbox 360. If I want to play a Xbox 360, all I do is switch from HDMI 1 to HDMI 2. 

And yeah, these rumours makes sense. I understand that its impossible for MS to deny always online when the "Xbox mini" is online.

The cows will be damage controlling like crazy if this is true.

RR360DD

Hmm as an admitted cow I see nothing to damage control. Specs will still be weaker than PS4 and no true BC. Price will be in line with PS4.

How do you know its weaker. PS4 has no BC.

First, bc has NOTHING to do with the system's power. Second.......I wouldn't really call that BC.

What? the HDD being option-able was a good idea from an economical standpoint as was the optional wifi adapter considering they supplied a 5m ethernet cable to start with, if your playing online you should be playing on a hardwire anyway, HD-DVD/blu ray were niche options on release and In all honesty had no business being in a game console, the only reason Blu ray was a part of the PS3 was Sony trojan horsing to win the wider format war. I'm sorry in this case MS had the better approach even Live fee's at the time were reasonable when u did a comparison of the available services, admittedly now that PSN has caught up considerably the value is certainly questionable. regardless at the beginning of this Gen MS gave cosnumers options, Sony's offerings were dictated by their agenda in the wider format war and it cost consumers Money and left the door open for MS to woo alot of 3rd party support. offering Consumers options to personalize their experience is without a doubt the better strategy.

First, I never implied power had ANYTHING to do with bc (please, don't be ridiculous). Second, I don't regard either to have BC.

I own 2 360's this gen and 1 PS3  and 1 Wii.  I will probably own 1 360 and 1 PS3 next gen I don't like limiting myself when it comes to game playing. unless Wii U  picks up I have no intention on purchasing it.

These are good news, and sounds legit as well. If true, MS offers hardware based BC. Sony only offers stream based emulation, and that sucks IMO. Sony confirmed that the PS4 won`t require always online and won`t block used games. Soon Microsoft will confirm the same thing. Now STFU.

Yeah, Bill Gates probably?

I can not discuss such information, other than that they are reliable and I should be 100% trusted, because I am always right. SDC

I really don`t see why the lack of true BC is such a big issue. The Xbox 360 will always be there. If it`s such a big deal, just ducktape your 360 to your 720. OMG, but then I have to switch between HDMI 1 and 2. 

Deal with it!

This does sound like the more accurate and detailed of the rumors. If so it pretty much owns all the cow trash talk bar teh GDDR 5 nonsense, even down to emphasizing Kinect is in fact not the focus. Told the cows not to jump the gun.

The thing that makes me doubt the rumor though, is that this has as much detail as the Feb 20th Sony conference, quite a bit for a leak.

I really can`t see how always online will benefit MS. 90% hates it, and will probably buy a PS4 instead.

[QUOTE="xxYetterxx"]And what if the PS goes to a pay to play model? Nobody seems to bring up this possibility but I would not be surprised RR360DD

Well there is a rumour Sony will charge for online play but cows are pretty selective about which rumours they believe.

They just ignored this post completely. $ony needs $$ and lots of it to keep afloat.

If there is a heavy focus on Kinect or it's a requirement to buy it, then count me out.

If PS4 also forces you to use "eye" then count me out of that as well.

Optional is ok, but don't force me to buy it.

All I want is decent hardware, decent controller, decent games and no extraneous bullschit.

If consoles can't provide that, then I won't buy any of them and just game on my PC.
