Just to keep Major Nelson on his toes during my interview with him last week, and prove that I really am ADD, I broke up our conversation and his stream of thought with a handful of questions emailed to me from Kotaku readers. Here's the excerpted Q&A:

I have a Live membership that expires next year, but I don't use anymore will it transfer automatically to 360 Live or do I have to do something?

MN: Live memberships will transfer over from Xbox Live to Xbox Live 360 seamlessly. If you have an active Live membership now don t worry about it.

Microsoft said they would post a list of backwards compatible Xbox games on the Xbox website last month, where is it?

MN:Peter Moore and Robbie Bach have said that we re going to make the top Xbox game backwards compatible. We are still working on the list of backwards compatible titles and we hope to post it in the near future on the Xbox site.

How important is Xbox Live to the Xbox 360?

MN: The next time around Xbox Live is critical.

Why is Xbox Live Arcade such a big deal for the 360?

MN: You don t need the disk anymore. You are going to be able to open the (Xbox 360) box plug it into your TV, sign up for a free silver account and go download games without ever leaving your house.

What we allow with Xbox Live Arcade is a way for a smaller developer to put it in the microplace and have access to our users.

What ever happened to the Xbox Sports Network, will we see it again on the 360?

MN: We are taking XSN sports to a different level (with the 360). Now it's not just a sports thing it's for every game you unlock.

What's your favorite Xbox 360 title so far?

MN: Kameo. I cannot wait for that game. It is just nothing but fun. The gameplay is so much fun and there are hours and hours of gameplay.

What's the deal with the Xbox 360 causing interference at Walmart, do I have to worry about that happening at my house?

MN: That's not really my department, but I can say this: I've had an Xbox 360 in my house for four or five months and it's never interfered with any of my home devices.

Will any of the games that launch simultaneously on the Xbox and Xbox 360 be compatible online?

MN: I never want to say never, but the platforms are inherently different. We are talking about apples and oranges.
