From all the talk here over the past couple of years I see zero chance of full emulation on the XB1. So I think if I had the choice between 1) no full emulation & 2) streaming of last generation titles, I will choose 2 every time. Sorry you might not be able to partake in it, but for the majority of us that can, I suspect they will choose #2 as well.

The only issue is the term, it's not emulation, it is just streaming the actual game over the internet.
If I could... of course I could try that, but I am a romantic when it comes to devices. I like the actual devices, or actual emulation. Internet is.... like great, but everything is very virtual, like it doesn't belong to you, as if that game isn't yours.
That's the deal breaker for me, you don't control anything over there, and some people just like to have full control of things so any surprises or shortcomings are avoided, if possible.
If it were like the approach Blizzard took with Diablo 3 it might be more palatable. As of currently, there is a "community event" going on for an entire week which doubles the number of Treasure Goblins you meet in a game if you find one. Well.... it's an internet event, a community thing.
But the other day I mysteriously -no apparent reason- lost the connection and the community event remained active while I was playing offline. I was seeing Treasure Goblins in pairs and enjoying the game as if nothing happened.
Now you have Destiny where you can play solo but if the connection goes down your game is done. What's the point of that?
