How many of you kept your Xbox 360 when you upgraded to the XB1?

I'd be interested in the answers and, if you held onto the 360, what was the reason?

Trading in my 360 would certainly help me get the XB1 sooner but I'm reluctant to part with all of my games. I don't play many of my favorite 360 games anymore (RB6:V2, GRAW2, TW14, BF3, BF4, etc.) but I hate the idea of not having the option.

Just for the record, I still play a lot of BF3 and BF4 but I do it on the PC now.

I kept it, got it hooked up... mostly for Tiger Woods Golf, and a few games that I love(d) and keep thinking I'll go back too like GRAW2, Red Dead Redemption, GTA5, F1 2014, Grid.... etc etc... but you know what, the Xbox One games are limited, but I haven't played once on my 360 since I've gotten my ONE... and also, thou the one ain't perfect, I regret cancelling my pre-order way back then and not getting it on release day... it's pretty awesome.

I still play most SP games on PC over the ONE, but the ONE is perfect for games like BF4, and the EA Sport games.

OH, BTW, I'm also keeping my 360 because I want to play the next Assassin's Creed Rouge which only comes on old gen, not looking forward to Unity.

Kept it. We use it for Netflix....thats about it. Lol. Also our son plays minecraft on his xbox but he never turns it off so I am thinking having a spare may come in handy.

Sorry if this is a stupid question but what is BWC?


Edit:
DOH! Nevermind. "Backwards Compatibility"??

Still have it because I still want the option to play Gears-trilogy, Mass Effect-trilogy, the Rainbow Six games and the Dragon Age games.

There's a rumor that the ME-trilogy will get an remaster, and if that happens, my 360 will be disconnected.

I kept mine and it is still hooked up. Mostly for gta v and NCAA football since they stopped making it. You still get free games with gold on it too so I am still getting new games for it.

Leemz, you can get bf4 pretty easily for the one either used or with the ea access app.

I may have found a deal for the XB1 that'll include the Kinect, FM5 and BF4 for $500.

Either way, I should be back online by this time next week at the latest.

ready

Hey Lee!! Long time no talk buddy!

I kept my 360 as well. Mason has a bunch of games that we invested quite a bit of money into (Skylanders and Disney Infinity) and he loves them so I won't be getting rid of the 360 for quite a while if ever. Also, there a still quite a few games I never got a chance to play that I would like to try at some point.

Nice to hear you'll be getting the One soon. Look forward to hooking up at some point


Nice hat, looks good on you though.

I pulled the trigger yesterday on that Newegg deal. XB1 with Kinect and Fm5 and BF4 for $499.99.

Should have it by the end of the week at the latest. Opted for 3 day shipping.

Looking forward to playing with some familiar names and voices. The silence while playing on the PC is deafening.
