      I’m always going to support backwards compatibility. At the same time though, I’m not playing 98% of the games I still technically own.

      Why would it not matter? I bought a game in 2007. I still have the disk. Imo backwards compatibility is a big selling point. A newer console should be able to play the older consoles games. These damn things are expensive.

      How stupid is that question? because people want to be able to play the games they paid for without having to hassle with multiple consoles, maybe?

      Yesterday I was playing COD: MW2 (2009) on my series x. I don’t play it all the time but I like having that option.
