Microsoft teases big news about original Xbox backward compatibility
I used to look at backward compatibility on a console as a nice-to-have feature, but not something that most people would use.

The Xbox team goes after PlayStation on Twitter
Sony is the leader in the console race. There’s no doubt about that. But the king stumbled this week, and Microsoft didn’t wait to start taking advantage. Earlier this week, Sony finally unveiled the systems we’d known about for weeks and months – the PlayStation 4 Pro and PlayStation 4 Slim. The announcement was, for many gamers, underwhelming.
