Microsoft defends cross-gen gaming – “we have an obligation” to support Xbox 360
And we’re “going to sell millions more Xbox 360s before this generation is done”.
If you want to start a punch-up at a geekmeet, consider introducing the topic of games that release on both the new and out-going generations of consoles. One side of the room should leap to its feet, bellowing about how Shooter #124 has been compromised by the existence of a “gimped” version for an older platform. Everybody else should then stand on tables as one, yelling that they can’t afford the new consoles and don’t want to be “abandoned” by manufacturers. Now might be a good time to step out onto the patio.
