I'd be more inclined to pick up an XBone if Condemned: Criminal Origins were playable. Hopefully it gets remastered, though.

It's part of the first wave tomorrow.

I'm a little confused about disk vs download.

When it's released on BC, I want to play Halo Reach again.

Obviously the disk is much cheaper at this point.

Can I buy a used copy from Amazon, insert into Juan, and it will download? Do I need the disk to play from then on?

Yes and yes.

 

[Bgamer90]

I was ready to play some NBA Jam or Pacman DX, but sadly those are not available yet even on the Preview NXOE :-(

NBA JAM!!

Yeah, I can't wait to play both. The instant features of the Xbox One will make them so much easier to play. I've also been dying to play an arcade basketball game so NBA Jam will help with that (even if the rosters are outdated).

Can't wait for Skate 3 to go up. That with the Elite controller is going to feel like a new game.

 

[MightyHedgehog]

A whole ton of games will find new and improved life due to BC and that awesome controller. I love that thing!

BC disc games work just like native XBO disc games.

The actual game resides entirely on the system hard drive. The disc is simply used to validate the license at startup.

Question: can I import my saves from the 360? No way I start from scratch for a multitude of them

 

[Steverulez]

Question: can I import my saves from the 360? No way I start from scratch for a multitude of them

Copy or move your saves to the cloud from your 360 and your Xbox One will find them when you load them up

Doesn't work for Super Meat Boy and Gears of War made me move them not copy but outside of that I don't recall many issues

 

[Emperor Bohe]

IOTI its called the 360 because you turn 360 degrees and walk backwards

i see that you're back after the funniest ban of recent memory

 

[Zeta Oni]

This is the one lol

Brilliant!

This is my favourite so far.

I think we have a winner here folks.

10/10. Love it.

 

[LightningXCE]

Xbox One Backwards Compatibility |OT| You'll turn 360 degrees and keep on playing

E: damnit, kinda beaten I guess. eeeeeeeeeh

 

[im_dany]

Huh?

Same studio that remastered Prototype games

 

[LightningXCE]

Same studio that remastered Prototype games

So we're screwed.

Also, your sources? Anyone's sources on this?

 

[Kadin]

So all the games will be available in approx 16 minutes right? About to head to bed but might set up a few to install first.

edit: bah j/k - I see it's 12PM, not 12AM. Damn.

 

[kingwingin]

Games are available in 12 hours.

12:01 am for update
12:01 pm for games

Didn't they pull rosters from the servers? Are those still up?

 

[Elaniel]

So I take it you still can't use XBox Credit and have to use an actual credit/debit card to purchase any backward compatible games on the store?

 

[gossi]

Can't wait for Skate 3 to go up. That with the Elite controller is going to feel like a new game.

Not sure if anybody has told you, but Skate 3 isn't in BC first titles I'm afraid.

 

[MikeSan]

Hello everyone,

How can I find the game available in the backwards compatibility directly on the marketplace of my One ?

Thanks

You can't, they didn't finish that part of the update in time. So no 360 titles in store on XB1.

The list is here: http://news.xbox.com/2015/11/09/introducing-your-first-104-xbox-one-backward-compatibility-games/

You can buy them from store.xbox.com on a PC, they're going to put it into XB1 store at a later date.

I read we're supposed to find the games inside the download list but I can't see any of them. I think this will take some time to go well.

12:01 pm pst they'll showup

 

[DJKhaled]

And he never implied it was. But it is coming soon and has been announced which is clearly what he was talking about.

Uhm, I was just trying to help. I don't think it's clear he was saying it's BC later, because he didn't.

 

[Karish]

"Xbox Backwards Compatability OT: Microsoft did a 180 on the 360"

It works on so many levels

 

[mike4001_]

It´s marketplace.xbox.com for Xbox 360 games.

 

[MikeSan]

12:01 pm pst they'll showup

Ok, thanks. I'll check later today if the games I had on 360 and that are backward compatible have appeared in my DL list.

 

[derFeef]

It´s marketplace.xbox.com for Xbox 360 games.

It's best to go here to see what's available:
http://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/backward-compatibility?xr=shellnav

 

[Black Republican]

what yall buying/playing for the first wave?

for me:

Mirrors Edge
Streets of Rage Package
Sonic CD
Beyond Good and Evil HD
Gears of War 3

 

[SensibleSucker]

This may have been asked and answered a million times already, so apologies in advance.

For the BC titles, will we also be able to download the demos, as we can on 360?

 

[intheinbetween]

so, no Rockstar titles?

http://thisgengaming.com/2015/11/12...shers-not-supporting-backwards-compatibility/

After Activision recently signed on board with Microsoft to allow their Xbox 360 titles to be backwards compatible it only left one real big AAA publisher to allow backwards compatibility. So far EA, Activision, SEGA, Deep Silver, 2K, Square Enix, Ubisoft, and Bethesda, along with others are allowing their games to be backwards compatible for the Xbox One.

Rockstar Games have currently not agreed with Microsoft to allow their games to be backwards compatible for the Xbox One. This means such games won’t be possible to play on Xbox One as of yet.

Rockstar is 2k isn't it?

Probably Mirror's Edge as well.

Both are owned by Take2.

Never played gears judgement so i'll give that a go, need to finish up the console version of dirt 3 (own it for pc and 360 on disc) but first I want to play some monday night combat, amazing game.

 

[derFeef]

Dirt 3 is free with gold right now, I grabbed that.
MNC could be fun, but... solo?
NBA Jam every day.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

I'm hoping out for Every Extend Extra Extreme. They put in Lumines Live so there's some hope but...man, E4 was my shit back in the day. Loved that game.

 

[Guardian Monkey]

Maybe i can get some clarification. With Gears of wars remastered do you get the 4 games for free? Or the ability to play the games only if you bought gow remastered?

 

[Novocaine]

Xbox One BC |OT| "Fortunately, we have a product for people who don't own a 360"

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Maybe i can get some clarification. With Gears of wars remastered do you get the 4 games for free? Or the ability to play the games only if you bought gow remastered?

You get the 4 games added to your account if you buy/play the game before a certain date.

 

[Guardian Monkey]

Yes! Yes! Yes!

awesome! Do we know when they will add them?

 

[Novocaine]

awesome! Do we know when they will add them?

No idea. Assuming we will get them at some point soon seeing as they are all being released with this wave of BC. There might be a date on the slip that came with the game, but I'm at work so I can't check.

 

[Montresor]

Maybe i can get some clarification. With Gears of wars remastered do you get the 4 games for free? Or the ability to play the games only if you bought gow remastered?

To follow up on the bolded, if a game is available for BC, there is only one thing in the world stopping you from playing the game:

Whether or not you own the game.

There are never going to be any artificial restrictions. I.E. the thought that a game would only be available as a BC title to select people (i.e. to people who played Gears Remastered) is ludicrous.

 

[paragonpro]

I just downloaded fable 2, one of my favorite 360 games. I had a physical copy that broke years ago, before I knew we shouldnt be standing our 360's on their sides. Any way cant wait to play it again!

 

[gollumsluvslave]

So got the new update installed etc, does anyone know how to get 360 Arcade titles downloaded to the Xbone?

Want to get Shadow Complex downloaded to see how I can access my old 360 digital games...

If it doesn't show up in the store and you don't have a disc how do you get it?

You find them in the "ready to install" list that appears on the right, in "my games and apps".

Thanks. I don't seem to have a 'Ready to Install' list, just 'Find more in the Xbox Store'

I should note I'm not in the preview, this is the real NXE update that just happened

 

[Black Republican]

i know BC update is 12pm pst but i wonder some might get the update earlier than others?

Thanks. I don't seem to have a 'Ready to Install' list, just 'Find more in the Xbox Store'

BC games aren't active yet, 3pm eastern time you will begin to see them provided you own some of the compatible games.

 

[gossi]

No. The global launch is 12.01 PST. There's no update for it, btw - the titles are server side downloads.
