The Console market never had any kind of fowards compatibility, only backwards, saying that you support the Xbox One forever isn't a good statement. We aren't on a level where tech can't evolve. Titanfall 2's beta run in a resolution worse than 720P on the Xbox One, this is 1 year before the launch of the Scorpio. How will they be able to support the Xbox One and the Scorpio with the same games and at the same time ? A upgrade will always be needed, and not only for Resolution, but for everything else. |
How do they do it on the PC, its called cut features. In other words just like the PC you have options to reduce textures, shadows, lighting you name it. Why would it be any different for consoles. To support weaker systems you just have to detect that system and adjust the graphical output just like its done on the PC. The difference is that you will not have as many endless iterations of hardware you have on the PC. At a certain point people will naturally upgrade once they feel their system is outdated enough to advance.
