EA exec: It is unlikely the next Xbox will play Xbox 360 games
Sources report that EA chief financial officer, Blake Jorgensen, said "An important thing to remember is that next-gen consoles will most likely not be backwards compatible… And if you play multiplayer on a game, you'll most likely not be able to play with someone on a different generation."

Axe-Robin- Its going to suck if you get the console near its release but none of your friends do because then you wouldn't be able to play with them on multiplayer according to this.
Well then you could just go back to the xbox 360 and play with them there i guess.
Unless you sell it to buy the 720.

Compromisezz worst news yet of the new xbox
I agree, but these are all just rumors. But I am hearing a lot of negative rumors about xbox, and a lot of good things about the PS4. :/

Yeah I know! Playing xbox was meant to be played with friends!
That's true, but eventually everyone will switch.

Haha exactly. But honestly if this is true it's going to be bad for those who like legacy games.

MushroomElmcapone928 I can't see this actually happening.. They should know better and that they would lose a ton of sales if your not able to play 360 games on the next gen console.. Seems like a false rumor to me.
If it was an executive who said it..How can it be a false rumor??
Exactly what i was about to say lol hopefully it does play 360 games that would be such a let down if it didn't
