That's why I'm in no hurry to sell my 360 and upgrade. Iv got a vast back catelogue to catch up on.I agree whole heartedly. The Xbox One is pretty useless IMHO. Just not that big of a jump.
But backwards compatibility is a technical issue. You'd either have to put an entire 360 in the One to play the games. Or emulate the 360 architecture. Those are the only two option.
Option 1 would make the product more expensive that would be attractive to consumers.
Option 2 is a huge problem now that we have things like achievements. Considering how buggy emulation is.
As for DMC remake. DMC4 was the shittiest game I've ever played. I got the game 7 years ago. Back when I got my Xbox and well before I achievement hunted. So the difficult achievements didn't even play a factor into whether I liked it.
The game is dead bottom of my card of over 800 games. And it will never move. It is literally the worst game I've ever played. I think I'd opt for castration.
