Also, a 12 GB SKU? What the hell? Not 16 GB, not 60 GB or 64 GB, not 120 GB, but 12. Aside from the weird amount of storage, given the number of PS3 games that need an install, you basically have to have that box in one hand and a new hard drive in the other at check-out to really do anything useful with it.

So I have both a 360 and a One, but backward compatibility has been big for me. It's allowed me (along with the Games with Gold program) to try games I've never played before.

- Alan Wake, how the hell did I never play this game? Well, now I can on my One.
- Deus Ex - Human Revolution, wicked game, but I never tried it until it was added to the backward compatibility list and was on GwG.
- Left 4 Dead 2, a game that we loved doing couch multiplayer with, but stopped playing as much since we starting using the One more. Once that got added to backward compatibility, we started playing it again and with friends online who also have it.

If I can leave one console hooked up to my entertainment center and enjoy all of the games in my library from a single console, that's a big plus. It also frees up the older console to run media center duty on a different TV in the house if I so desire. After all, the 360 still does a great job at doing what it does, there's no reason it needs to be put out to pasture if it works and it can fill a gap somewhere. My trusty old non-HDMI 360 will live on.

make sure to get sunset overdrive; I have been playing nothing else since I got it for free on gold. to stay on thread, an insomniac games xb1 exclusive.
