А майкрософт тем временем запрещает обзорщикам рассказывать хоть какие-то подробности этого фактаNo, I didn’t get to all 1,000 games, sorry
The answer I eventually got was, "Sure, we'll call your bluff." Today, I've been given the greenlight to talk about the console's current backward-compatibility testing phase, and Microsoft has had zero control of my tests or takeaways—other than limiting me to 1,000 games across every existing Xbox platform. While the program will eventually encompass every game that works on Xbox One consoles, the pre-release compatibility list is a bit more narrow. 1,000 is a big number, but it leaves some huge Xbox hits out of my testing.
Still, the results so far have been telling—and, for the most part, reasonably impressive. I wouldn't dream of recommending a $499 game console solely based on how well it handles a sliver of existing Xbox games. But backward-compatibility sure is an interesting data point. My testing will be good news for anybody who likes the idea of a single, powerful Xbox that can juggle everything from Panzer Dragoon Orta to Playerunknown's Battlegrounds.
Most of the other impressions you might hope for in a "console preview" window are off the table for now; if one of your burning questions is missing from this article, that's because I'm playing nice by Microsoft's request, not because I'm holding back on any possible severe issues. There's still more to come, promise. At least I have been given permission to talk about the console's "industrial design" today. (That means discussion is coming about what happens when I shove stuff into the new console's venting holes.)
