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

I did some objective lag testing using Pac-Man CE DX+ and a video camera, no additional lag is added by the Xbox One over the 360 with this title. I was even using a wired controller on the 360, but it's well established that Microsoft's wireless controllers add way less than a frame of lag anyway.
 
What's everyone's #1 game they want to be BC, but isn't yet?

Mine is Metal Gear Rising

Modern Warfare 2 is the only 360 game I'd play A LOT on BC honestly
because Bad Company 2 and COD4 deserve a complete remaster or a worthy sequel

All the games I've never finished would be cool too, but there are too many to make a list.
 
I can´t shake the feeling that if Xbone One just had a 10% better CPU and GPU every BC game would be a rock solid 30 fps :D

But it seems with all the updates to BC games there is still improvements to be made to their emulator.
 
Do you have a https://store.xbox.com link for the Worms 2? I can't seem to find it on the US store. (Example using Dead Space or Mass Effect)

Also, Mutant Blobs Attack has been backwards compatible since the initial public launch on 9 November (Major Nelson blog post on 9 November)
Weird this man post Mutant Blobs Attack being bc now if it was from november.

For the worms 2 link i can't find the game in xbox.com but if you look to oshvam99 profile and view his followed games is there with the storefront.

The one game I'd wish is Full auto, but I'm not getting my hopes up, the game is completely forgotten today, and didn't even get a digital release. I would gladly re-buy it again in digital format though (even if I still own the disc), it's the most fun I've had last gen.

Agreed! Glad they clocked up the CPU from 1.6Ghz to 1.75Ghz right before launch. It certainly does feel like a slightly faster CPU would get them there. Hopefully they can figure out some optimizations in their PPC to x86 emulation method and they don't rely on some beefed-up Xbox One.5.
 
I really want Marvel vs. Capcom 2 the most. UMvC3 would come in second. But odds are those are never going to happen thanks to the licensing bullshit.
 
Ninja Gaiden 2. Now that Halo Wars is already BC.

I really think that when they get Ninja Gaiden 2 working they should make it a GwG game. It was such a great game but I bet a very small segemnt of the user base actually got to play it. It would be smart of Team Ninja to get that game out into peoples hands if they are planning to ever do anything with the ip. Man I wish MS could buy the ip and set up a studio with Itagaki to make new NG games.

Radiant silvergun and ninja garden 2.

My man!
 
Anyone get games added to their install list that they are pretty sure they never bought digitally? It has happened for a few games to me

Just wanted to follow up on this post after and say that these games I didn't buy (or have no memory of buying) do actually launch. I was silver for the few years that GWG started so the only GWG I remember downloading in Fable 3.
 
Of note, Dead Space joins Plants vs. Zombies as free with EA Access.

Preach. Ninja Gaiden Black is and forever will be my jam. Man those were good times.
 
Woohoo, just got a notification that my copy of Halo Wars from Amazon was delivered.

I never played it, and absolutely LOVE strategy games...CAN'T WAIT!!
