LOOKING BACK WHILE MOVING FORWARD
Don’t think that just because the Xbox 360 is out that the people at Microsoft are resting on their laurels. No
way, no how. Each and every day they are still hard at work bringing you titles you’ve come to grow and love.
What is the point, you ask?Easy backward compatibility is the best way to expand your gaming library almost three hundred fold, right
out of the box. Among the Xbox 360’s buckets of abilities is its ability to play games for the original Xbox.
