Xbox One is the best console if you don't care about exclusive new games - The Verge

And how does that work when you want to play an xbox 360 kinect game? Or to play those games that the publishers will never allow? Or after all these years hasn't gotten around to?

Lets have a race. I'll go grab my Xbox 360 out of the closest and insert Tales of Vesperia. You insert it into your xbox one. Lets see which one gets to play it first?

Although you may have a lead. I'd have to first find batteries for my xbox 360. I have to take them out so they don't explode and leave gunk all over like last time.

I'd choose another game but every game (but one) I can play on my xbox 360 can't be played on XB1. So I'd have to go look for a list of Xbox 360 games. Then cross check it against a list of what games have been released.  That is just a lot of extra time.

Now if it was like the wii U BC - I'd agree. I can put any wii game in my wii U and immediately play it.  But then again who is saying the wii U is the best console because it can play all wii games? Along with a VC of many, many games. No one serious..

As if I ever claimed you can play tales of vesperia on the Xbox one. Nor did I ever claim that you can play your ENTIRE 360 library on One. 

Nor did I say that Xbox is the best console. Nor did I say BC is the sole factor that makes a console great.

Dont really get the point of this post.

And kinect games? Really? Kinect is suddenly the most important thing to you now, when motion control has been dead for years? gimme a break.

We could say the same of BC... Xbox didn't had a prior gen, X360 wasn't BC, X1 got BC middle gen and is limited.... but now it is all important?
