Microsoft is upset with a news articles posted at popular gaming site Gameindustry.biz that claims the Xbox 2 will not be backwards compatible.
Microsoft has released a statement fighting back the non-backwards compatibility rumors that were reported yesterday.
“Recent stories in the press about future Xbox products are nothing more than pulp fiction. Microsoft hasn’t made any announcements regarding the next generation, so it’s far too early to speculate about specifics, including backward compatibility. In fact, this media conjecture is irresponsible. The credibility of any publication willing to compromise fact in favor of a catchy headline must be questioned. Xbox fans are smart enough to distinguish truth from sensational reporting.â€
As Team Xbox has pointed out, Microsoft still has not said whether the new system will play the older Xbox games or not.
