Sony surprised by Xbox One BC Feature announcement (Article)

[Leasy]

"It was surprising," admitted Sony Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida. "I didn't think it was possible. There must be lots of engineering effort. They talked about 100 games, but what kind of games will be included. Is it smaller games or big games? We don't know."

They don't have anything to counter this. MS did a great move.
And they already have Mass Effect available for BC so I can imagine a bunch more AAA titles will be available within a year. I been playing Perfect Dark non-stop on my XB1.

Never played Perfect Dark on the 360 because when it was released I heard nothing but negativity.

The 360 version was weak. I've been playing the N64 version.

They don't even have working OG Xbox emulation going. Gotta give props to MS for this if they can expand the library.

Huge "IF" and BC right on the console is always going to perform better than streaming.

The only way they can really combat this is by changing up their prices of Playstation Now and adding more classic PS3 games.. But streaming or on console?

I wanna try out PS Now but i'm too lazy to sign up for their free trial

This ability by Microsoft is so great as the games look even better on the One.

I thought u was talkin bout Perfect Dark Zero. The N64 one is a classic. Prolly better than Goldeneye. Wouldnt think u would be talkin bout the N64 version in an Xbox thread.

MS trying, but

Its playable on the XB1 now. It was a digital release on the 360. For preview members it was made available to download on the XB1 already.

I noticed that too. BC games do look better on the XB1. That's something that wasn't really mentioned.

Yeah they did a great job can't wait for the other games. This also help developers as they don't have to redevelop games for remastered bullshyt editions.
