Game preservation has become a hot topic these days, and some companies, and Xbox in particular, want to put in the extra effort needed to ensure games of the past are kept alive and available even if technology constantly moves ahead of them.
During today's GDC panel, Xbox's Next Generation VP highlighted the importance of game preservation for him personally and for folks at Xbox itself. "I fundamentally believe that great games are timeless," he said, adding that it's a personal matter to him, since his son sometimes plays titles that came out way before he was born, making them entirely new experiences in his eyes, even if they're old for Ronald himself.
