Xbox-sjefen Phil Spencer annonserte som kjent på E3 at Xbox One vil kunne spille av dine Xbox 360-favoritter. Nå har han fortalt litt mer detaljer om hvordan dette er mulig:
"The team took the approach of effectively running the whole hardware OS that was running on the 360 hardware on the Xbox One. So when you boot the games, it literally boots up the operating system of the Xbox 360 - which is why you can play with Live and everything else. That was the most difficult thing."
Spencer forklarer også hvorfor spillet må lastes ned på nytt selv om du har spillet på disk allerede:
"It's an Xbox One copy of the exact same game so that it shows up as an Xbox One game. That way [...] it shows the game ID and everything else."
