seems like its a big announcement. I would be very disappointed if its 1 or 2 game. At this point I am expecting them to say every first party game will be available.
You know what they saw about expectations, reality and happiness.
Not trying to be a cynic but I would be

Xbox 360 dash now tells you what games are BC if you happen to be in the preview program. Seems like not all games are affected yet (Gears of War and Hexic HD don't show up as compatible for example)

That Red Dead tease. I need you to hover over there, and see the XBO Backwards compatibility message. What dreams are made of!

Hehe - I did that intentionally I knew somebody would ask. Nope, no indication of it being BC yet. Seems like the only two on my end are Perfect Dark Zero and Viva Pinata Trouble in Paradise. I suppose I'll go through and take a look at my library and see if anything was given the BC okay early.

Oh well turns out MS's 360 era region lock system checks your IP and console region at the end of your download so now I have two duds in GRAW and GRAW2 lying in my hard drive. Gonna wait till BC to play them then.

I bought GRAW. Disgustingly cheap at under £3. One of the best multiplayer shooters I played back in the day. Before all that Modern Warfare nonsense came along and ruined the genre for me
Fingers crossed for BC!
The console version of GRAW and GRAW2 are among my all time favorite military shooters.

I'm glad I'm not the only one! I'd love to see Ghost Recon revisited. The original Xbox versions were also very good! I never true Future Whateveritwas though. It didn't look like a tue GR game to me.

completely restarting my system fixed that

i'll try my copy later since i'm about 60% into the game, there's some areas of the map which were really bad for frame drops so it would be nice if that's resolved.

I own SHadow Complex, how do I go about downloading it on the One?

Go into "My games and apps", then in the Games, scroll all the way to the right, you should see it in the "Ready to install" panel.
what game is that?
looks like Perfect Dark Zero to me
You also have to be in the preview program.
I can confirm
The framerate in the intro went from 15fps to 30fps
Really impressive imo. Expected improvement but this seems better that 360 fps?!
I hope df retests the whole bc.

If restarting doesn't fix it, highlight it in your My games & apps list and press View(back button) and uninstall it and then reinstall it from your 'ready to be installed' list. Worked for me.

Not really. The framerate was a pretty smooth 30 fps on 360 and this just meets that expectation now.
I would be surprised if they were using double buffered vsync before and now have swapped to triple buffering. The framerate isn't a smooth 30 but it's by far much better than it was before.

I licked my lips when I peeked Red Dead in the corner. The thirst is real.

No it does not, simply ask someone on your friends list to invite you into the preview program.
Migrate your account to a region that matches your physical region and console.

I'm doing that right now but now I have two Shadow Complex tiles and one of them is broken. This is the second broken tile after Jetpac Refueled. Fix this shit, Spencer.

And betas are there to get problems fixed. What is the problem?
Problems should be reported via the Preview feedback application, really, to get them resolved.

I already reported the problem when I had it with Jetpac Refueled.
Hooray! Hopefully it gets fixed in next 3 months, i.e. before rollout.

Nope, they run the same as on 360.
Would be nice if the emulator could add some antialiasing like the 360's emulator does for most Xbox Original games.
No.
Xbox One is emulating the complete Xbox 360 system. The game thinks it´s running on an Xbox 360.
The only benefit is, that Vsync seems to be enabled per default which causes some framerate issues on some titles.
But there are also parts, where the framerate is better than on the xbox 360 .... it´s emulation and will not be completely identical (performance wise)
But graphically (+ resolution) is 1:1

Funny thing is playing the emulation made me decide to get my 360 running again. Now I can play everything. My entertainment console has 360/PS3/PS4/X1/WiiU/PC all plugged into a Pioneer plasma, so I can play pretty much anything from the last 10 years, and don't get me started about Retroarch running on the PC...
ok thanks
that's cool gonna pop back into the preview and check out some of the games I have

That's the biggest problem right now as I'm in China, using a US xbox live account, and on a HK console, non of them match
