Peter Moore on the Xbox/Xbox 360 backwards compatibility:

"Nobody is concerned anymore about backwards compatibility. We under promised and over delivered on that. It's a very complicated thing… very complex work. I'm just stunned that we have hundreds of games that are backwards compatible," he said.

"Under promised" and "over delivered"? I don't even own an Xbox or a 360 and this bold arrogance infuriates me to no end. Hey, what's this? Why, it's the Xbox 360 backwards compatibility FAQ page:

Our goal remains to get every game to be backward compatible.

Hmmm. Interesting…

Here are some choice quotes from the Evil Avatar thread on this topic.

bapenguin: Wow…the only thing backwards there was his statement. Undelivered and over promised you ass.

swiftdraw: Does he mean no one at Microsoft is concerned, or does he actually think that consumers aren't concerned? And really, which is worse?

Borys: Big corporations lie to consumers? Surprise, surprise!!! Sony is no better than Microsoft and vice versa.

Agreed. Funny how a lot of people keep trying to pin Evil Avatar as some sort of Microsoft/Xbox fanboy site. There sure is a lot of hate and not a whole lot of support in that thread for Microsoft's about-face on this very important topic. I think examples such as these demonstrate that EvAv is less Microsoft fanboy and more anti-stupidity.
