Yes, Soulcalibur HD XBLA released on BC and plays perfectly for all I can tell. And SC3 has always remained a PS2 exclusive.
I guess they just did some sort of license transfer thing or whatever. I know I bought the games before the were taken off (2009 I'm pretty sure) and I have the Bethesda versions now too (RIP red cross medpacks in Doom 1...).
Strange that the two versions of Wolfenstein have separate achievement lists.
Also strange, Wolf3d still does not show up as "already purchased" in the Xbox 360 marketplace. So maybe they didn't some sort of license transfer...
I wonder if they just fixed it to where it's easier to find, because I think for a while you had to go digging just to find it. I'm pretty sure I had to do a Bing search once when I wanted to play it even though I had it installed, but now it's its own separate thing.

I have Wolfenstein 3D with all unlocked achievements and it only appears as one game in my list. I'm going to check it again later today just in case.Strange that the two versions of Wolfenstein have separate achievement lists.

I just realised yesterday that you can play online 360 BC games on a X1 using a silver account in a console that has a primary Gold account.
Tonight I'm going to try if I can play online 360 games between with my gold account (on 360) and my silver account (on X1).

Killer Instinct Classic was free (Game with Gold) on January with Killer Instinct Season 1, but it's an Xbone game, not an Xbox 360 game.

Both L4D2 and RDR leaked in February 
So RDR must be ready very soon too.
It was still very playable back then

I've tried to get into them, but just can't. L4D is balanced for 4 players, and you get braindead AI if you try to play with less. So since I don't like to play with randoms, if I can't find 3 friends to play with I get a bad experience.

Still waiting for Tales of Vesperia and Beautiful Katamari to be added to the list. :/

This. Games run like they are running on a standard 360 and all the functions that a 360 could do while gaming can be done with the BC. But on top of all that, you still have all the Xbox One functions still active, so screenshots, Game DVR all still are running and working while playing 360 games.

This is a stupid fucking question and I feel stupid for not knowing...
Remember on 360 if you hit the big X jewel button in the center of the controller it popped up the little quick menu (with messages, friends, settings etc...)
How do you do that on Xbone? If you hit the center button this time it takes you to the Xbone home screen and minimizes your current game.

start and select i think.
Push the middle X button thing twice I believe, quickly. Wish they never changed that.
Start + Select (or Hamburger Button + Two Squares Button).

I really wish they would say something about Radiant Silvergun. That is the number one game I want to be BC now that SotN is.
I wish
I think we all have games we wish they'd talk about. RS would be nice, as would Nier, Ninja Gaiden II, Catherine and many others.
They can't address them all at once. Give'em time
