All these discussions about backward compatibility and emulation - my old savegames may be the show-stopper for me.
Virtually all Xbox games are locked until you complete milestones in the game. My kids have spent hundreds - nay, thousands of hours unlocking games. Their progress are stored as game saves on the internal harddrive.
How do I get the saves to the new system? Do I buy an Xbox memory stick? - is it compatible to the Xbox 360? I can just imagine the reaction of my kids if I tell them to enjoy the new machine but they can't play their favourite characters until they redo all the levels in the game and complete all the inane challenges.
