Our Take
The backward compatibility function for the Xbox One has been one of the biggest selling points for the system. While I'd still want to see more exclusives to try and compete with the libraries of PlayStation and Nintendo, Xbox has been making great strides in making this system a one-stop shop to play both old and new favorites, even going as far as making some classic games run better than ever.
