B/C when it works for all games is good to have. As soon as some games do not run on it or they are glitchy it just becomes a pain in the neck.

I really wanna see how MS will manage it. It may even backfire. As soon as it will be available people will start b*tching because their most favorite X360 games aren't available.

They updated Shadow Complex (my favorite downloadable title from last gen) after putting it out for preview members and it seems to run even better now than it did on 360. I haven't played it, but apparently textures load in almost instantly in Mass Effect but take awhile on 360. So the games can run better via BC.

It is an important feature when making the transition between generations.

2 years in, yeah it makes no difference. It will never be a game changer by itself though. It just facilitates the upgrading.

It's useful.

A couple weeks ago the kids wanted to play wii sports resort again, bc saved me connecting the wii back to the tv. Although doing that would have saved me sitting through a 5 minute first run tutorial of how to connect a wii motion plus and nun chuck, having to unlock things again and make mii's to play with. In the end it cost me 10 minutes extra at least...
It went better with super paper mario, my 4 year old was having fun with that on the WiiU. I don't even have enough time to play Splatoon, certainly no time to replay old games. 11 more days to Mario maker!

Hit the nail on the head with the funny sarcasm :) 

Rather have it than not though. I hope to be able to buy 360 exclusive titles (never owned it) such as Alan Wake maybe.

It's a good feature to have, that's for sure! I haven't seen much hype around it so I can't see it being overhyped.

I don't need backward compatibility but having it is really nice. Also my Xbox 360 is not plugged anymore but there are a lot of games I didn't get the chance to play on 360. Buying an old gen game and replug my 360 is not going to happen but if the games are sold on the Marketplace and EA makes them available on EA Access then I see no reason to not like the feature.

A lot of last gen games hold up pretty well for today's standards actualy. Today's trend makes you believe that games not 1080p are too blurry to even snipe in a shooter (this is hilariously ridiculous) but a lot of games are more enjoyable than today's efforts.

Those improvements are nice but minimal compared to the massive jump from composite outputs to HDMI outputs. For me it was night and day playing those PS2 games on PS3.

It is nice to save a little space and money, but not the main reason to buy a system.

The question will not be if BC is a great or only nice feature, the question is how you could use BC to sell more new games. BC gives Microsoft the possibility to bundle old 360 games (digital copy) with each multiplatform or exclusive game launched on Xbone, and give more value to their games.

If SFV Alpha comes to Xbone eventually, would you consider buy it if they give you SFIV (or even older digital games of the 360 store)? Thet's the real point here.
