Xbox One Backwards Compatibility Thread: Everyone wants it, no one uses it

EvB said:
The more interning thing is , does the game download the region of the store that you are currently in, even if you have a different version of th game?

It should still work. Lots of Australians were region hopping to download uncensored copies of South Park: The Stick of Truth.
 
I know that this is not the right thread for asking this but can anyone invite me to the preview program? My GT is Cyenz 1904.

Thank you for the reply. It turned out that the Xbox is running the current dashboard preview, which has a bug that prevents 360 Discs to be recognized.

The workaround is to put the disc in, go to the Store page and install it from there.

Weirdly enough, that hasn't worked for RDR and Lost Odyssey, which is really annoying.

If someone could send me an invite for the dashboard preview program, so I can opt out of it and use BC, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks guys. This was making me crazy. Workaround worked great for me.

Same here, complained to MS and they told me I don't own the liscence, never did. The problem is on their end. All my transactions history prior to 2013 were not listed under my purchase history thats why some games work, some don't. Fucking bullshit.
 
Bought an X1 a few days ago and purchased World at War earlier today. I've always said this was the best COD I've ever played and I'm in love all over again.

Bolt action rifles are so satisfying to use. I'll be picking up the map packs eventually.

Currently 7K people online. It makes me very happy to see this, lol.

Its my favorite COD as well.
 
With all the hype for Rockstar about to announced Red Dead 3, i wanna play some RDR. Do i need the disc inserted for the whole download? or can I eject it part way through and play some Gears 4 while the download continues?
 
Decided to also pick up Black Ops 1 early this morning.

Currently, 19,830 people playing.

I never noticed before but there's no domination in the hardcore playlist. Being that I play about 90% in HC, I'm disappointed in that. Just a random things I wanted to mention.

In the main menu right now, listening to the music. So good. Memories are just flooding back.

BC is such a blessing for these older games. Love the resurgence!
 
Kind of a weird question, but are digital version save files recognized by the physical disc and vice versa? Like say I upload my Gears 2 save file started digitally on Xbox One BC to the cloud and download it to my Xbox 360 andiad it with the physical disk?

If only BO1 wasn't hacked to hell.
 
I've been playing through Gears of War 3 on my Xbox One S and noticed that the single player achievements weren't unlocking. After some light detective work (checking my achievements list), I discovered the reason why:I had already played through it 4 years ago.

How the hell I forgot all aspects of the campaign is beyond me. Granted, a lot has happened in my life over the past 4 years, but nothing in the game has even registered for me. No little moments of nostalgia or anticipation for levels or moments. Nada.

In all honesty, I don't remember much from any of the Gear games story-wise asides from a few setpieces. I mostly played the hell out of horde mode and online in those games.
 
Got Gears 1-3 +Judgement redemption codes for ordering Gears 4 digitally. Already have them so don't need them.

Will give out to GAFfers, only one code person (to share the wealth.) Just send me a PM and which game you prefer. If interested in more than one, send which ones you are interested and I'll do my best to accommodate.

edit: FYI - Only Gears 1 left

I'm thinking about getting an Xbox one for this. Can I buy the goty edition or do I need to buy the game and then the dlc? How much does that end up costing?

Thanks for the info.

Take your pick. You can go physical or digital. Since you have to download the same digital file regardless (the disc is simply used for authentication purposes), I've been purchasing digital copies of 360 games for my XB1.

Do titles get announced on Tuesdays? This gets bumped and I get excited
Click to expand...

It's part of my "Tuesday routines" along with checking the DotW: arriving home after work and check majornelson's twitter ^^

On a side note: does anybody here consider possible to have 360 BC on W10?
 
I'd love to have licensed games like Up, Kung fu Panda, and Rango to be backwards compatible. Hell, they're don't even have a digital version :(

WWE Allstars too.
 
Sorry to bring it up again but if BO2 appeared briefly last week, and it was on sale, does that mean it was supposed to be become BC but something interfered\happened?

And does that mean that it should be BC at some point in the immediate future?

I think that was just a mistake by whoever writes Major Nelson's posts
