The most compelling reason to buy a PlayStation 4 is probably its killer line-up of exclusive games. Meanwhile, perhaps the most compelling reason to buy an Xbox One is its backward compatibility feature that allows you to play select Xbox 360 and original Xbox games on your Xbox One, a feature the PlayStation 4 does not offer.

And as you would expect, the fact that the Xbox One is the only console on the market that offers backward compatibility has been driven home by Xbox marketing to death. And for good reason: it's a killer feature.

But Microsoft hasn't just been talking, it's been walking the walk: habitually adding newly supported games. And so it should come as no surprise that just in 2018, Microsoft added over 100 new titles to backward compatibility, which brings the library to over 550 games, 57 of which are Xbox One X Enhanced.
