Cheers folks, just saw the Major Nelson update in the other thread, so CD Titles won't show till after 11pm UK time tonight. Fair enough!

Not sure if this has been asked:
For the games that allow you to play the previous 360 iterations (fallout 3, gears) do you just need to have the new game to play? For instance I read somewhere that you need to play Gears of War: Remastered by a certain date to have access to the older games. Does that mean you get them like a games for gold download for free? Or do you need to still keep the Gears Remastered disk in order to play the 360 versions, as if you actually had the original game disks?
(Does that make sense)

Pretty sure we'll just be able to download all the old Gears 360 versions in our games library once they're granted to our account. They won't need the Remastered disk as far as I'm aware.
Anyone know when they will be granted to our accounts?
Edit - just seen it's December 1st, fair enough.

New experience isn't showing up for me yet. Do I have to force it or is there a delayed roll out?

So do we think some of the games currently playable right now will have to be patched later today? I hope Mass Effect gets an update.

If I go and buy the fallout 3 goty edition, will I be able to install the dlc on my xb1?
I have a question that I still haven't seen clearly answered (and if it has been, I'm sorry... I've searched):
If I didn't own a 360, now own an Xbox One and want to purchase some BC games (namely Shadow Complex), can I do so through the web store and they'll be waiting for me on the right side of My Games and Apps screen?

Yes. You won't be able to claim 360 Games With Gold if you never had a 360 though.

The way DLC is handled is still up in the air, some games will show DLC as an optional install if you look at the game install inside games&apps, some games seem to give you all the DLC for free (borderlands 1) most likely because there was no real way to apply them seperately at the time.

Yep. Lots of people have reported this issue over the months. Its weird because if you never owned an XB1 you can claim the GwG.

Other than the games already in preview and rare replay, what will be the first one you try out?

Either Just Cause 2
Or co op Phantom Breakers. Actually, I always meant to 100% Phantom Breakers, but I don't remember if you have to buy that character from Stiens;Gate for any of the achievements.
I can finally play the sealed copy of Gears of War Judgement I picked up for cheap a few months ago. Might as well play the entire series again if I'm feeling like it hehe.Just over 3 hours until my xbox hard drive finally runs out of space

That's not true. If you have a gold account, just buy them, for $0,00, through Xbox.com. No need to have or to have had a Xbox 360 at all.

I know I am really wondering about this. I have all the DLC except Operation Anchorage and have no interest in that but would take it if it comes free. I own all the rest and never played through any of them but Mothership Zeta which SUCKED!
I have heard good things about the rest of the packs though and want to check them out once I get tired of FO4

I like doing this if I know a game is soon to be released again, just hold off the temptation of playing it until it releases like this. I caved on thr Streets of Rage collection though and played it on my 360 lately!
saves only work using cloud saves...but they sync to the xbox so local storage...all games have to be downloaded from microsoft's servers be they disk or digital

Well shit. Definitely going to stick with playing games on my 360 then.

Fuck, I wonder how badly the servers are gonna get hammered with everyone downloading their 360 games at the same time.
I just wanna play some Gears 3 horde mode!

You can just buy a month of gold upload your saves on the cloud with your 360 and redownload them on your One.
What's wrong with cloud storage for your saves? It's not like your credit card numbers or other personal information is there, and if you're offline, the local copy of your data will work.
Microsoft's implementation of cloud saves is first-rate and I'm super happy with it.

I can't access my old 360 right now but I hope monday night combat saved my stats to my gamertag, be rather upset if not

We're all right, technically. The codes start going out on December 1st, and you have until December 31st to be eligible for the codes. As long as you play Gears Ultimate before January 1st, you'll be sent the codes, but they are starting to be sent out in a few weeks.

When do the fallout 3 codes go out for those who purchased digitally?
Received mine via Xbox Live message yesterday.

Hopefully someone can get some new Mass Effect impressions out there. I'd like to know how it runs in the Citadel in the outer areas.
