@MeachTheMonster is Series S backward compatible with XB360 or even OG XBox?

As in can I buy games for those systems now on XBLive and play it on Series S?

If not, is Series X BC with those systems if I have the disc?

Yes on both accounts. If you have the discs you can put them directly into the X, or they can be downloaded on either system.

It’s “most” games not all tho, so you gotta google to make sure the games you want are included.

…but after getting banned from PSN I realized how fukked up it would be if I were to get perma-banned and lose all my titles. That shyt got me sick right now. :sadcam:

As convenient as the not having to switch discs is, I think I’m going back to physical now, plus it’s lowkey cheaper.:francis:
I just sold ufc 4 for ps4 for $20 on eBay. shyt is almost a 3 years old and was a ps plus freebie 6 months ago.

The day I can recover 30% of the cost of the game on digital, I’ll switch over

This thread is a reflection of yourselves :francis:
Now let's address the issues...

First off, hell no it's not cheaper. On Xbox at least every game is on sale at all times for the most part and then Gamepass >>>

But this talk about going back to physical like if physical exist like that anymore :laff:

The 360/ps3 didn't actually run from disc tho so :patrice: yeah. That was the first generation to do that, now you know

I feel like you needed to add a "Pause" to that statement :scust:

There is no need for physical anymore just like you don't buy CDs, you don't buy DVDs. This exact same logic applies no matter the FAKE SCENARIOS you gots love to create.

What if a meteor hits and the servers go down?

Well, if you're trying to play a game after a meteor takes down the internet then you deserve to die.

Name the console game you can't play anymore? Daytona not on XBL anymore but the game is on the internet and I can run it better than it would run normally via an emulator THAT WORKS ON CONSOLES (or PC). Or consoles are jailbroken so you can do all that illegal stuff that you don't consider illegal on PC.

The point is these doomsday scenarios have never been reality. The reality is you doing too much if you get banned from an online service. Let's not all go zero dark thirty. I'm living on the grid for now, can't use draft kings in the center of the earth nah mean
That’s true for video games but movies and some music are nowhere close to the quality on streaming as they are on physical. Movies especially. No service is giving you 60gb Blu-ray quality. And most if you want studio quality sound, you gotta pay up too.

Video games aren’t streaming either and they can’t match it for quality. So really you comparing two goat totally different things and hoping nobody would notice

The real value of digital media in movies and music is that you gladly take a loss in quality for cheaper product. You can get 1000000 movies/albums for 9.99 but it won’t be no Blu-ray or studio quality.

Video games are completely opposite. You are getting the exact same quality but not a penny of savings. The value is in not having physical media to break or lose. But they are missing that people really just want some savings

This reminds me of 2004 and brehs in here using this as a supporting argument :pachaha:
shyt, next month I’m going to NC for a couple of weeks and I’m thinking of copping one of those for the few physical games I have, because I’m damn sure not carrying all those cases.:gucci:
