| vivster said: Well I stand correct. No backwards compatibility via emulation. But kudos for making the games forward compatible. Seems to be easy since the architecture of X1 is close to 360. I kinda doubt Sony will do it that way. 1st because it's a hassle and second because PSNow would be insta dead. |
Um, what? No, they are very different.
Under the hood, the original Xbox has more in common with the Xbox One than the 360.
The similarities is they both run DirectX - which is usually very backwards compatible, except the break from 9 to 10. And Xbox One is DirectX 12, while 360 is DirectX 9. (For reference the original Xbox is DX 8.)
That they got an emulator on the Xbox One to run X360 games and with improved rates is quite a nice accomplishment.

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon! |
