Xbox has been a dead platform ever since they tried to ban the sell of used games.

That's what happens when you don't actually HAVE true backwards compatibility, as much as you're faking it via individual game emulation. ie, you keep adding new games to your "supported" list over time, usually based on popularity, so you're constantly listing new games as compatible.
That's what annoyed me with how the 360 handled it with original Xbox games. To this day I own Xbox games I can't play on the 360, and even some of the ones I can play have lag, glitches, and other problems because they weren't perfectly emulated. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ...

Except I was talking about the 360 era, where they openly admitted that they were only emulating the most popular or best-selling Xbox games, because they viewed it as a waste of resources to emulate every game, even the most niche of titles. And even if they're saying their criteria for determining which games get emulated this time around has changed, the mechanics of it are basically exactly the same. So no, it's not true "backwards compatibility" in the same sense that the PS2 had backwards compatibility to the PS1. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ...

I don't know, but it's apparently been enough times to make you buttmad over a dead platform.

Except I was talking about the 360 era, the second paragraph maybe, you made no distinction either way with the first. --- i'm flyin' from a fire from nico and the niners ... Copied to Clipboard!

Fun fact, you can patent stuff you never intend to do and get money from companies that were going to do it. :P --- I'm not lazy, I just don't care http://backloggery.com/DeltaBladeXNZ - https://steamcommunity.com/id/DeltaBladeX ...

I've seen cases myself, though they are rarely memorable. Not like Namco. They patented mini games on loading screens. Stuff that hasn't been pulled yet just tends to be forgotten. --- I'm not lazy, I just don't care http://backloggery.com/DeltaBladeXNZ - https://steamcommunity.com/id/DeltaBladeX ...
