Its just a rumour, and still, I would be buying an XBox2 to play XBox2 games.

Sure backward compatibility is nice, but it should not be the most important factor in a console purchase.

Just a note on Xboxs also. If you bought one, you really didn't.
Bill's only leasing it to you. Read section 4 subsection9 and it says your only leasing it for an unlimited amount of time. You modify if and Bill finds out, you owe him $1500 or the actual cost of making it.
Bill... what a guy.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

You know, for playability and downright fun, the Intellivision series was pretty darn cool.  Sure, the graphics were craptacular but back then they were contemporary.

My favs:

football
hockey
boxing
B-17 "bommmmbs awayy!"
Tron
Sea Battle

I took my set to college where I and my roommates wore out both controllers, two more backup controllers, and then the system popped an internal circuit for good.

I miss those days.  Now, when I want to do AH, I gotta get clearance from the House Gaming Commission or I'll have an inspector looking over my shoulder going "you finish washing those dishes and taking out the trash yet?".
