Peter Moore Says Backwards Compatible Xbox Games On Xbox 360 No Longer a Concern E-mail
Xbox 360 News Bits
Written by Rivithed   
Thursday, 01 June 2006
In an interview with Kikizo, Peter Moore talks about next-gen gaming consoles (Nintendo's innovation and Sony's HD movies plan) and the future of the Xbox 360. The interview touches on Live Anywhere, Xbox 360's pricing strategy, PS3's launch, Xbox Accessories, 360 hard drive storage, achievements and Xbox in Japan. Moore also stated that the Xbox 360's backwards compatibility with the original Xbox console's games has been over delivered.

"Nobody is concerned anymore about backwards compatibility. We under promised and over delivered on that. It's a very complicated thing... very complex work. I'm just stunned that we have hundreds of games that are backwards compatible. More are coming, but at some point, you just go, there's enough, let's move on, or people aren't as worried about a game being backwards compatible - and I like to think we've upheld our end of the bargain in making at least two or maybe three hundred games backwards compatible."
