Sony wouldn't guarantee 100% backwards compatibility either, but I think something like 99% of the PSX library is runnable on the PS2. It was a selling point, and most people had enough of a PSX library that they could play pretty much whatever they want.
If MS sells the Xbox 360 as being backwards compatible, but you only play Fuzion Frenzy and Amped, there will be blood in the streets.. Of course, by "blood in the streets" I mean "very persnickity blog postings". - Jim Tyler Silcox wrote: >Ballmer's been saying that they can't commit to 100% backwards compatibility >because they can't guarantee 100% backwards compatibility.
