Because otherwise you have to convince the fast majority of the casual console buying public that they should spend hundreds of dollars on new hardware every 2-3 years? |
only if they want to play it at "very high" or "optimal" settings
as PCs are forward compatible older Xbox PCs will still be able to play the newest games for a decade or longer, but with reduced quality/resolution/framerate
on the other hands MS gets to cash in from people who always want to play the games at their best settings/ have the newest box (like people who always want the newest smartphone version)
