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

You can get Joy Ride Turbo for free. It's a 360 game that's BC with XB1.
Free Joy Ride Turbo, a racing game similar to Mario Kart, for the Xbox One (and 360) by going to this link:

http://wm6.walmart.com/Be-Snack-Ready-2015.aspx#slide4

Select "enter codes" then enter the following information when prompted:

Bag 1 - 373315XXX 12:18 Bag 2 - 373315XXX 09:39

Change the three Xs for each "bag" to any random number, fill out the rest of the information, and wait for your free game code. Enjoy!

(This may not work on mobile and may require a PC browser.)

EDIT: This should work outside of the U.S. as well, as confirmed by /u/jakescond
from Australia in the comments. Just use a U.S. zip code like 90210.

Tried the free Joy Ride Turbo for science. It worked. Now I feel dirty. Time to rationalize this internally - I own Kinect Joy Ride so it is okay. Nice. Done.
 
Where is my Virtua Fighter Sega! Waiting makes me so ANGRY!

Fantastic game.

Is Sega AM2 even around to make Virtua Fighter 6?

According with Wikipedia they released a game in 2016. They haven't released a lot lately, I like to think it is because they are hard at work on Virtua Fighter 6, the last game I will ever need in my life.
 
Bought the Fallout: NV GOTY edition with all the DLC.

It's been a damn long time since I played FO3 or Oblivion but the "Bethesda jank" is pretty noticeable.

I played the game on PS3 for about 10 hours back in the day and it ran atrociously.

Some of the bugs in this game are hilarious though. Game is running smooth as fuck outside of some glitches and frame rate issues.

lol, well sure!

I've been buying games on sale here and there that have been either announced, leaked or otherwise expected but it seems week in and week out the games getting released to BC are not the ones I am buying.
 
I wish Mike Ybarra would host an Ask Me Anything thread.

* Mike, now that you've solved the multi-disc problems, what's the status on Mass Effect 2 and Mass Effect 3?

* Mike, has Rockstar signed off on Xbox releasing Red Dead Redemption yet?

* And Mike, while we're at it, what can we expect from Xbox One's background music functionality when it launches on August 2nd?

New Vegas was made by Obsidian, not Bethesda. It's cool, though, because Obsidian had their own brand of jank that is evident in NV.

Why do you think he would answer any questions which he hasn't already answered on Twitter?

Do you think it's the medium on which he's speaking which prevents him from giving specific answers, and that if only he was on Reddit he'd magically have the ability to give answers?

And not, instead, contractual obligations preventing him from giving certain answers, or even the simple fact that he doesn't know specifically if or when something will be available?

Here's the answers you're gonna get from those 3.

1) You would have to ask EA about that.

2) We can't comment on that. It's up to Rockstar if their games are released on the BC program. Ask them.

3) Your music will play in the background

I'd add to the list - Any updates on the games that were listed as "Coming Soon" back on 9 November 2015 that have not yet materialized - (i.e.: Bioshock, Bioshock 2, Bioshock Infinite, Skate 3)

Simple and true answers. People aren't going to get more out of someone because there's nothing more to get.

It doesn't work like that, because that would make Rockstar potentially look bad and it would hurt MS's relationship with the company.

Well they should , however, say why they do not want to release the game I think it is our right to know
