I don't gett all this 'Backwards Compatibility is a MUST!' crap. The PS2 was really the first console to offer any form of backwards compatibility, and it was never an issue before that. With MS not being able to put an original xbox along with the 360 guts inside the 360, they are doing the best they can. The route they took, or had to take, aint perfect... but at least they are doing something to allow people to play Xbox games on the 360.
