Yes, I see a huge mistake in Microsoft's future. Backwards compatibility is a big selling point, and it seems like it'd be worth it (if they're planning to use a DVD drive again) to put in the capability to read old disks. I bought a PS2 instead of an Xbox largely due to the fact that I could play all the quality old PS games when the urge struck in addition to the new stuff. Interesting indeed. Guess we'll have to see what happens.
