So, is the backwards compatibility overhyped?

Yes, it's a great feature. My friend who never owned a 360 bought Geow Ultimate because 1-judgement would be free with the game. BC is what pushed him to buy it, so to say it doesn't effect sales is wrong. When BC fully releases this holiday you can bet we will be playing Gears of war 3 together.
