EA exec: It is unlikely the next Xbox will play Xbox 360 games

4
An executive for Electronic Arts has recently claimed that we should not expect Xbox 360 games to run on the next-gen Xbox, nor should owners of the next Playstation expect to play PS3 games on the PS4.

Sources report that EA chief financial officer, Blake Jorgensen, said "An important thing to remember is that next-gen consoles will most likely not be backwards compatible… And if you play multiplayer on a game, you'll most likely not be able to play with someone on a different generation."

sounds ridiculous, probably won't be getting it. i know a lot of people who won't be getting the next xbox, coming from an xbox fanboy (i dislike ps3 compared to xbox) i think ps4 will do better.

Its EA's way of saying,"were gonna milk the crap out of this console, even if we know it sucks. There are still retards that will buy it." F*** off EA, I've spent too much money buying video games. I would still like to play them on the next console.
