I just don't understand how it's not already compatiable, 360 is a better system yet older games dont work? Go figure, wish microsoft could do SOMETHING rightkrovak0000
MS does not have the rights to put the original Xbox GPU inside the 360 and since they switch GPU chipsets from Nvidia to ATI they have to pay royalties to have Xbox hardware emulated. MS has gotten quite a few things right btw; you are playing their console. Not saying any entity is perfect but MS is not evil,
they might just go digital download like that article mentioned although I love the process of bringing the game home :( However I also love steam when I don't want to go out to get the game :)Jordo321
I would love digital distribution on the next Xbox. I don't know if MS likes the idea of paying a direct competitor money for their discs. It would definately be a way to set the next Xbox apart. I've also got a feeling we might see Apple come up with something pretty soon not that I know anything particular however.
I absolutely guarantee that the next Xbox will be a download only system. It will have a very large HDD built in and games will be downloaded much like they already are on the PC via Steam. z3dd1cu5I'm not really sure if I would be that certain but certainly see them going that way. Although, what would we do about HDDs? I hope MS would be mindful enough to have more reasonable prices on HDDs or let you install your own.
Its not that they shouldn't but it would devestate the company if they ran into another dreamcast failure. The gaming market is too crowded anyway.Panther501Dreamcast got screwed by bad timing. Great console
