It's confirmed. Watching the conference, the X360 is backwards compatible!

He said with the best selling games, not all of them.

Partial backwards compatibility.


The games I most want backwards compatibility with are not best sellers (those will have sequels at or soon after launch):

In the lower left of the xbox.com main page it says that there will be a live webcast of the Microsoft press briefing tomorrow. I think it starts at 6PT/9ET.

I'm very impressed with the specs for the Xbox 360, but backwards compatibility is going to be important when it's compared to the PS3.

Tom DeLay isn't really on my radar right now as far as senators go. Sounds to me like PK and others are blowing a lot of hot air. Some worth complaining about include Larry Craig, Ted Kennedy, Hillary Clinton, Robert "KKK" Byrd, Nancy Pelosi, and Barbara Boxer.

Re: OT:Jade Empire



I played the demo and the game did nothing for me. I'm just not into the whole ninja chick, oriental setting, of this game. I hate to pass on a 9.9 and I have loved all the Bioware games, but this game is dead to me.

I quit paying attention to demos and cancelled my OXM subscription a year or ...

Re: OT: Longest gaming experience in one sitting?

I prefer to avoid the all day marathon sessions. The few times I've done that in recent years were with the original Unreal Tournament (PC) and KOTOR (Xbox).

Yeah. I'm surprised you never heard of the National Review. I thought it was a pretty well known publication.

Never heard of it. Maybe it's not as well known here on the west coast.

There have been massive layoffs for the past few years where I work, and we're going through one of the worst ones right now.

My understanding of diagnosing PVS is that a specialist must do it, and I learned that this was not the case. That is as much as I remember about that point from discussion a couple of weeks ago. I never accused anyone of making anything up, and don't dispute the doctors' reports. If you think I'm ...

Leebo's quote doesn't name the doctors. Doesn't matter. I didn't join this forum to argue politics all day. Just my opinion: too many unanswered questions, and bad media coverage. And, polls matter because they matter to the politicians. It was repeated over and over that Americans wanted her ...

Trying to get all your questions answered before I head out the door. People are discussing the case based on information that the media reports.

The testimony of her nurses was never heard by the courts. If you haven't read it, do check it out.

The doctors who investigated her were unqualified, and only spent about 40 minutes each with her. You have to spend a certain number of hours and perform the correct tests in order to come to the ...

Too many unanswered questions and conflicting evidence that was never considered by the courts. It's unfortunate that we couldn't err on the side of life and rehab in this case. Not saying that euthanasia is always wrong, but I think it was wrong to kill her and especially to starve her to death. As ...
