Noones taking anything away. Nothing. There is no confusion. Another example. Rise Of The Tomb Raider. One of the best visuals Ive played through this gen on console. Its utterly gorgeous. 900p @ 30 fps. Its also managed to run on 11 year old hardware the 360 at 720p 30fps.
Your talking about fragmentation for consoles between a 6-8 year time frame. Thats just not going to happen. As I keep saying history shows the Xbox One 2013 model would be able to run all the games right up to around 2021 ( ROTR, Titanfall, COD, Battlefield etc ). No different than it would without Microsoft announcing this plan. The only difference being Micosoft are giving consumers who want to upgrade the choice. Because they control Windows 10 they can. They are in a position to give something back to console gamers as well as PC gamers.
Its brilliant news. And Ill be upgrading as soon as I can. If you dont want to thats fine. Or you can just play Xbox on Windows 10 PC. The choic is yours as Microsoft have said

Can you play ROTTR multiplayer on X1 with other X360 players? No? Well it's not the same thing is it?
The fragmentation absoluitely will happen, in a similar way that the X360 and X1 users are fragmented. You're just asking Microsoft to fragment their userbase every 3 years rather than every 8-10, and that will piss many many many people off.

There is no multiplayer in ROTR. Tianfall though you can. 360 vs Xbox One. But that was harder to do.
The 360 isnt the same OS or Live servers as Xbox One. Your completely dismissing that every iteration of Xbox version will run on the exact same OS and Log into the same Live Servers. Hence why Phil also talked about all your games from digital You buy always stay with you and are playable on every iteration of Console. Like PC can. The whole point of UWP ( Universal Windows Platform ) would be utterly pointless if Microsoft stopped using Windows 10 in 3 years time. on Xbox.
Remember Microsoft announced Windows 10 is the last ever Windows. From her on out they will just evolve Windows 10. There will be no 11 or 12.
