MCV, the UK videogames news site, is reporting that one million Xbox 2s will be available in Europe this year, with 1.5 million being available by the end of March 2006. This news comes from a source at a major US publisher. The report goes on to say that the next Xbox will not be backwards compatible with current Xbox games. While no one has gone on record saying so, there is speculation that many games set for release on the current Xbox have been held back and moved onto the next-gen platform.
