It looks like gaming is an afterthought to Microsoft. Their new console will NOT be backwards compatible, they've essentially killed the used games market for the system, and made sharing games virtually impossible even between systems in the same household. But hey, at least now you can Skype and surf the internet and connect it mit deine cable and watch netflix and stuff. I hope the ps3 drops to $150-100. There's a bunch of games I want to play on it but I'm waiting until ps4 launches
