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

Grand Theft Auto IV and NCAA '14 today (would be my luck on NCAA)


...even though I picked up a 360 just to play NCAA '14 with 2016/17 rosters this past Tuesday.

Been meaning to update the rosters. Can you just download them in-game from someone or do you have to load a save file somehow?
 
Is metal gear rising revengeance possible or is there licensing stuff that may stop it
Konami has released quite a few titles already so I don't see why the Metal Gear games would cause a problem. I'd honestly bet it's a real possibility considering Bayonetta is already compatible and while I'm not entirely sure what Platinum's engine's have evolved into I imagine they share a lot of similar code and it's probably the first MG game we'll see on BC. I think the HD collection is something to be more concerned about.
 
They keep trolling me with this sorting...

Grand Theft Auto V is titled "Grand Theft Auto V"
but Grand Theft Auto IV is titled "GTA IV"

My connection is being pretty assy right now. I'll give impressions on performance but I can't give raw numbers, only a subjective comparison between the two consoles.
 
ok i just tried GTA 4 on my S and the framerate is not great. janky in fact when i panned the camera around 360. i have actually been playing this recently for long sessions on 360 and the fps is not better it seems. looks sharper yes but frames stutter atm. not good.
 
I cant see BoGT in the store or my games list - event tho i own it on 360 bought digitally. does anyone else have this issue?

Strange. What region are you? It's at least available in US -

They need to allow the user to provide a sorting name, because this kinda shit kills me.

One of these days, I'm going to have to either search for an existing or write up a suggestion in their feedback ranking system. I'm sure it's only a small population that gets annoyed by this, but I'm definitely one of them.
 
I own BOGT and this link wants me to buy it

I searched the store on xbox one and was able to download it though

I think that page will always just have a Buy button there. Catherine, Gears of War, Alan Wake... all of them that I tried that I already own just says Buy that takes me to the old 360 Marketplace URL.
 
How is gta iv? I vaguely remember starting it up and playing the first mission and never going bck to it..but its a gta game, surely its worth playing through?

It's not very good in my opinion, and I doubt it has aged that well, especially when we have RDR as the superior Rockstar open world game from that gen but I guess some people like it

It's very slow to start but it has some high points here and there but out of all the mainline GTA games it was probably the worst.

It's very stripped down compared to San Andreas and V in terms of variety and features. But it's the core essence of GTA and it's fucking great.

The first time I played it, I got bored and stopped after the end of the first act, when you unlock the second safehouse. I went back to it a year later and finished it and it became one of my favorite GTAs.

Go download the rosters from the gamertag Cajunomics

You can do it from the roster management in options. Just cancel out of the game trying to connect to EA's servers. Enter the above Gamertag and you're set.

Most of the starting lineups are done across every team from that one and even entire depth charts on some. Love playing as my Clemson Tigers. They're stacked, obviously, with the 2016 players and stats.

Really one of my biggest pet peeves. It's even worse on 360 where we have things like "CoD: Black Ops" and "Black Ops II" or even worse with the two Force Unleashed games. One is under S for Star Wars while the other is under F. I wish there was way to sort.

Awesome thanks.
 
I have a GTA 4 disc but like being a digital beast so I need to rebuy

Why isn't GUN backwards compatible. And LA Noire. I could basically get rid of my 360 if those get handled.

I hope GUN is not BC because they care about peoples' eyes in 2017.
 
I want to see a comparison video for GTA4 on 360 vs Xbox One.

Texture streaming and LOD improvements would be great!

After playing for a hour or so, I can say FPS is a bit irregular, can't remember how it was on 360 but it's not solid 30 or 60 (it seems to be unlocked). V-sync is enabled fulltime so no tearing. Texture streaming and LOD are improved and very quick (loadings as well).

I feel it'll get other update, hopefully to address unstable fps. It's still very playable.
 
Man, I meant to buy GTA 4 the last time when it was 4.99, now they're going to half-ass on the sales and try to capitalise on BC by charging 7.50 to 14.99 like they did with Red Dead Redemption.

I rolled the dice on it like a year ago along with RDR. One of my few victories in life.
 
Has anyone else encountered this? Sonic CD was re-added to my library over from my installation on the 360...but when you start the game up and get to the part where it says "Press Start" to begin, it asks me to sign in/download to a profile? Which I already did once I started the Xbox One...the game asks you to sign into your Microsoft Windows ID, and password, and then asks if you want to "download" your profile? few button presses later it says sign in from the Xbox One home screen then try again, which I already have and it seems to be stuck on a continous loop, it won't let me start the game until I sign into a profile!!

At this rate I am better of re-connecting the 360! Seems more complicated than it should be to play a B.C game!!!! : (
