With the nouncement of XOne backwards compatibility I believe this is true.

Huh? Did that happen?

Just happened now on E3, XOne is now backwards compatible trought downloading X360 games you previosly owned as a physical copy for free.

So this console will end up less than 90m and in third place then.

With the XBone's BC, the discontinuation of the 360 makes a ton of sense.

You know it deserves the GOTY.

But Black Ops 3 is still coming to 360. Maybe they don't want to much left over stock?

Aren't there still big games coming out on the Xbox 360 this holiday? Yes, so I don't think this is happening yet.

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!

Tell me a funny joke!

wouldn't make sense.
Games still come out on 360 (even MS published ones) and they have lots of price cuts left if they wanted.
