Brilliant. (Gaming)

Backward compatibility is a big deal.

For a feature that rarely gets used even when the support is near-perfect and available at launch.

Guilty.

When I made the jump from Xb1 to 360, backwards compatibility was a big deal for me. I couldn't afford to outright buy a 360 at the time, and I wanted the Elite model- bad. For me to get it, I was going to have to trade in my Xb1.

So when BWC was announced for most of my games, I felt a weight lift and I made the jump.....and never went back to play the old games, again!

(except for Halo 2 and 1 for LANs)

I've learned my lesson. If I want to play the old games, I hold onto the old console. So, when MS finally announces they are putting the kibosh on 360 productions, I'll go out and buy one.

Just in case.

Also LANs. Might not be able to wrangle a PS4\Xbone LAN these days, but dammit, I know people will for 360.

I read this as Xb1=xbone at first.
