Well, in many cases you can, really. But the more relevant comparison is that you can play old PC games on new PC hardware, which is the issue with the Failbox and Failstation.

"Microsoft hears you! Xbox One microphone always on"
www.myce.com

"Microsoft has stated that the Xbox One Kinect microphone is always listening for commands, in other words, it’s always on. The new Xbox One will continue to listen for voice commands even when the console is turned off. This makes it possible to turn the console on with a voice command. If the device is powered off, it’s in a state which can be considered as sleeping. While it sleeps it still listens for the ‘power on’ command so that it can be turned on whenever an user gives that voice command."
