Those saves either crash after being loaded and attempting to move into a new area or present him with an error message saying "Save game incompatible with current game version."

The HoloLens Inventor Thinks “the Phone Is Already Dead”
Microsoft's Alex Kipman, HoloLens inventor has proclaimed that mobile phones as a device are dead.
While discussing the medium, Bloomberg reports that Kipman is sure that the phones will soon be replaced by hybrid devices more akin to the HoloLens. “The phone is already dead,” he says. “People just haven’t realized.”
This sentiment is seemingly echoed throughout Microsoft as the company focuses on their other devices, despite the potential 1.5 billion smartphones likely to be sold this year.
Microsoft has said it would rather stay out of the mobile phone market entirely unless they can offer something truly different. Marketing chief Yusuf Mehdi has even stated “We’re not going to come out with another device that someone’s done,” remarking on the stagnant nature of innovation within the industry.
