The 'bigger games' thing is essentially one big lie and will bear no fruit for years to come. Microsoft has no intentions of creating games using the HD DVD format either, meaning that they fully expect that through the life of the 360 that it will be capable of storing 'next-gen' graphics on a dual-layer dvd. Those games that happen to be extremely massive will fit comfortably on two dvds. Titles that are dually available for both consoles at the moment look roughly identical on both consoles, with occasionally PS3 or 360 pulling slightly ahead in the 'looks' department. You would think they would have wanted to show off their ?bigger games? in the beginning to win over support eh?

They had planned to do hardware emulation which should have made it 100% compatible but instead (and to save money I think) they went the software route, just like Microsoft did with the 360. And like with the 360, that's why the PS3 has trouble playing some 200 PS2 titles.
