In any case whether M$ will try to monopolize that or not I think its totally obvious at this point that M$ is just trying to turn this into another great market to suck dry. They have no interest in gaming just how much money they can leech off gamers. I am talking about M$ not the game developers.
But honestly I expect them to pull some dirty tricks like making full backwards compatibility not included and then you have to download files off xbox live to your hard drive to get it and M$ charging for that download, or including functions in model 2 or 3 of the 360 that are not included in the first model that makes everyone with model one furious.
Kind of like that mid 90s case where they sold bad copies of a ver of dos and then made everyone with that bad copy pay to download the fixer file. I wouldnt put anything past them.
