Xbox Scorpio Will Run 360 and One Games Without ‘Technical Wizardry’
“We’ve very specifically designed it [on Scorpio] so Xbox games just run,” he said, referring to both Xbox 360 and Xbox One titles. “It’s nothing like Xbox 360 backwards compatibility right now — there’s a lot of technical wizardry involved in that. We didn’t want to have to do that again.”
That’s good- after all, one of the major points of these iterative consoles is that they will hopefully make libraries continuous, and never lead to generational breaks in libraries of the kind that we are otherwise used to. Now Phil, if you could just add original Xbox compatibility into the mix too, it would be much appreciated…

What I still don't understand is the fact that the 360 as well as the PS2 could run games from their earlier gens. So why are they making it out to be some big time advancement? Technology will not and cannot move on much more than it has, they are sneaky and make it seem like its much better when in reality it's not

I'll be getting this but not going to on day one. I almost never buy anything as soon as it comes out.
