To be fair, Microsoft isn't offering its "entire" company legacy as bc either.
Only 41 out of the 1001 original Xbox games are available for instance. And if I remember correctly, about 25% of the 360 library is available. Would be awesome if 25% of the PS3 library supported bc but it'd still be far from the entire legacy.
You'll always have games in your collection that aren't supported.

The fact that backwards compatibility isn't comprehensive is a massive downer on Xbox's efforts, this was always going to happen with a curated approach though, the logistical efforts required to do the complete ecosystem is massive.
But the benefits to it are improved visuals and performance as every game is thoroughly tested and that can be super important to some people.

No argument there. BC support for 25% of a library is still better than 0%. My only point was to tell James that it isn't the entire legacy of games.
If price isn't significantly affected, more features (such as BC) is a good thing and I hope to see stronger BC support down the road.
