My cloud saves work and the emulation seems 100% faithful so far.

Not bad, Microsoft. Not bad at all.

 

[Natiko]

Installing some of mine just to test out how it is. Really bummed that the handful of games I want to play most might never get added to the list of playable ones. We'll see.

 

[Heysoos]

If I get into the Preview, I am so going to go out and rebuy Viva Pinata. :3

 

[ipukespiders]

Smart play Microsoft. You've won me over now and I'll definitely be moving on up from my 360.

 

[Swass]

Alien Hominid HD, N+, and Zuma popped up for me and they aren't on the list.

 

[Chucker]

Check your OS version.

If it isn't 6.2.13171 / xb_rel_1507.150610-2200 then you forgot to enroll in the public update when you got in.

6.2.11998.0 xb_rel_1506.150601-2200 fre
Am I boned? How did I end up out of the loop?

 

[Dai101]

How DLC works?

Check the preview app and see if you're enrolled in the public preview.

 

[purg3]

Super Meat Boy seems to work well, can you only use cloud saves for the emulated games? Not getting a HD save option

 

[t26]

there is no way to transfer save by USB?

 

[Xbudz]

How do my 360 digital games end up on Xbox One? Assuming they are on the list...

 

[foltzie1]

Guys, quote this message for my gamertag if you'd like an invite to the Preview Program. It'll be in the email line. I've sent out about 10 today so I'm not sure if there's a limit but figured I'd try to help. Hit me up and I'll send it asap

Thank you sir

 

[Griss]

Most of the good games are at the top of the list or at least on the first two pages, but people need to put in work for Shadow Complex and Dead or Alive 4.

 

[Chucker]

Check the preview app and see if you're enrolled in the public preview.

Preview app doesn't even look the same, it just says thanks you're enrolled and that's it.

 

[VisceralBowl]

Yes. Cloud only.

 

[Aselith]

Does any disc game work or it still needs approval?

 

[purg3]

Yes. Cloud only.

thanks dude

 

[JaggedSac]

Is Hexic meant to pop up automatically?

Think everything you own will pop up automatically.

 

[vall03]

Sorry if this has already been answered, I just woke up, do we know if this will be region free? i.e. Using an NTSC-J disc on a US Xbox One and we can play it? I just want to play my Cave shooters, because if not, this will be completely useless to me.

 

[Mercutio]

Oh god now I have to trick someone into inviting me into Beta!

edit: for clarification, if you quote my message as if you're going to reply to it, you'll see an email section (above this edit) revealed and my gamertag is listed there. Send me an invite on Live and I'll add ya that way.

sent you a message

 

[Kadin]

Just sent you a message, cheers!

I just sent you a friend request, thanks!

Added. Really appreciate you doing this.

Thank you sir

Np guys, glad to help. Added about 12 so far and send the Preview invites. Don't remember how long it takes to get a message but it should be pretty quick. You'll then have to download the Preview app, select the option for Registration and then it can take up to 48hrs from there.

Good luck.

 

[Macho Madness]

This is the "downloading your account screen":

And a screenshot of Geometry Wars:

Also, the link to Geometry Wars on the Xbox One store (it doesn't work): https://store.xbox.com/en-US/Xbox-O...-Evolved/967cefc1-e46c-4210-a02b-0edfc5ecdbbc

 

[Str1ke4]

I sure as hell wish Sony would do this as well.

They do. But its inferior and they charge you money for it.

 

[davitpr]

Streaming similar to PSNOW probably

Would be cool if a real BC solution tho

He did say "natively"

 

[TheAdmiester]

So how do you bring up the 360 guide? I can make it come up using the Achievements menu on GW but can't otherwise. I heard it's Xbox+Start or Xbox+Back but both of those just go to the Xbox One dash.

 

[Macho Madness]

It's not streaming. No way.

 

[suddenlyissoon]

Sit on the "find games in the xbox store" bit for a minute or two. I did that and my titles slowly began to appear.

You are a good person! This worked for me.

 

[VisceralBowl]

Press Start and Select at the same time.

 

[Chucker]

Just checked again, still says "Thanks, you'll get a message etc" which is strange, because as late as 5/30 I got a message for being a preview member with smite codes.

So strange.

 

[Conflict NZ]

So I can't play my old Mass Effect save because it requires DLC and I couldn't find any way to get the DLC, has anyone figured this out yet?

 

[panama chief]

Anyone else kind enough to share an invite please? After 9 years of consecutive service MS still doesn't like me.

That's weird. I'm not sure what's up.

Press BACK and START at the same time brings up the old 360 guide!

Spoiler:

If you record a 360 game with a snapped window the recorded footage will show the full screen including the area for the snapped window but in black. So better unsnap if you use Game DVR 5 min. recording option

 

[Bullitus]

I'm having a weird problem with BC. I live in Finland, all my systems have regions set to Finland, Xbox One uses finnish language but all BC 360 games are in german. And it seems like there's no way to change the language. Anyone else having similar problems?

Good tip, I was wondering how to do that. thx

 

[CaptainSlow]

Twitch streaming also works! It was a bit buggy for me to get it started but it eventually worked.

Great, thanks.

Still waiting for Hexic or anything else I own to appear, weird how it's only got one game so far.

 

[PumpkinSpice]

Do 360 developers submit source code when they submit their games for approval (like years ago)? I guess that would be one way to re-target on x64. If not I can't imagine how they are doing this safely.

 

[Syriel]

Whoa, there it is. It's not emulation, but rather compiled to x64. Makes sense as emulation would have been too slow.

Mass Effect has x64.

Banjo Kazooie is also x64.

Tried PDZ and it said install disc, but apparently it's not compatible at the moment. VERY SAD

The name of a Hyper-V container doesn't have any bearing on the code running inside.

Is Hexic meant to pop up automatically?

If it is on your account it should. In you never added it as a free "purchase" and just played it off the pre-installed copy on your 360 then it probably won't pop on Xbox One. Look up Hexic HD on Xbox.com and make sure your account owns it.

yes sir! Just booted up world of Keflings. It's kind of weird, u get the 360 logo boot up, then you get the XBLA screen and bam It works. Even shows me friends online with the old 360 icon. Streaming on twitch even works

That's because it's running the 360 OS.

How do my 360 digital games end up on Xbox One? Assuming they are on the list...

You download them.

Sorry if this has already been answered, I just woke up, do we know if this will be region free? i.e. Using an NTSC-J disc on a US Xbox One and we can play it? I just want to play my Cave shooters, because if not, this will be completely useless to me.

Region setting on 360 is a config file. Each game can have its own emulator setting, so it would be possible to have a JP emu running on a US One assuming there were no IP issues.

Do 360 developers submit source code when they submit their games for approval (like years ago)? I guess that would be one way to re-target on x64. If not I can't imagine how they are doing this safely.

Source code has nothing to do with it if they are using a Hyper-V solution as indicated in interviews. Each game is running inside a virtual 360.

Think of it like running a game in DOSBox. Or a Windows game in Parallels on OS X.

 

[Caffeine]

hmm nuts n bolts is not showing up but the other 2 banjos did guess i have to wait.

 

[Macho Madness]

If Hexic HD isn't showing on your account, go get it. It's free: http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Product/Hexic-HD/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802584107d1

 

[watership]

I just realized that double dipping for digital games on sale for 360, if they are BC, is totally worth it now.

 

[Xbudz]

You download them.

Thanks for the info, but from where? My titles don't show up under the Xbox One store or in My Games.

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Anyone want to invite me into the preview prorgam?

 

[Doug Heffernan]

Aww yes, it's finally working for me!

Viva Pinata time.

 

[sonto340]

I would love an invite. Despite years of worship the Xbox gods have yet to ordain me.

 

[Trojan X]

all of it.

Disk AND Download?!!!! Ok. This IS truly now a Megaton. Now I'm considering getting an XBOX ONE. Best news for XBox so far.

 

[Syriel]

Thanks for the info, but from where? My titles don't show up under the Xbox One store or in My Games.

If you're in the preview program eligible titles will show up under the Ready to Install section of your games. Just like any other XBO title.

If you're not in the preview program or you don't have any eligible digital titles, then they won't show up.

XBL itself has been slow all day ever since the announcement, so if you don't see anything under your game section just let it sit there for a few minutes.

If you are in the preview program and still aren't seeing anything, make sure you have the latest system update and make sure that Hexic HD is on your account as that is both free and an eligible title.

 

[TheAdmiester]

If it is on your account it should. In you never added it as a free "purchase" and just played it off the pre-installed copy on your 360 then it probably won't pop on Xbox One. Look up Hexic HD on Xbox.com and make sure your account owns it.

Welp, I know for a fact I haven't done that, but your link redirects me to the homepage. Got another one?
