I was somewhat interested in the Xbox One at first, but now with all of this info, fuck it.
On the bright side, I signed up for the Gamestop "First to know" mailing list about the Xbox One, and in one of the first emails, there was an FAQ about it.

Q: Will Xbox One be backward compatible with my existing games?
A: Xbox One hardware is not compatible with Xbox 360 games. We designed Xbox One to play an entirely new generation of games-games that are architected to take full advantage of state-of-the-art processors and the infinite power of the cloud. We care very much about the investment you have made in Xbox 360 and will continue to support it with a pipeline of new games and new apps well into the future.

Supporting Xbox 360 with new games "well into the future." Does it seem like they're holding onto the 360 and keeping it alive in case Xbox One flops? Regardless, it seems like games will be coming out for the 360 for awhile, so I'll just hold on to that.
