I took each of them for a whirl a couple of days ago, and 2 does perform way worse than the others for me as well. It's very odd.

Probably. I installed it a week ago and I'm always online. It's not something that's interfering with the gameplay (so far), but like I said it's noticeable. The biggest one I had was in the Desperation mission when the airstrike begun. I know Gears 1 isn't as advanced technologically, but I managed to complete the BC version without any visible slowdowns.
I'll have to step back into today and take a break from the Orange box and see if I notice any new drops. The more UE3 games they get to 100% BC the better as it will help other titles get released quicker.
how's the OB running?

I did a replay of 2 on insane with the new patch and didn't have any significant issues; there were a couple momentary hitches here and there but I couldn't recall if the 360 version also had those stutters in large scale encounters too.
Gears 3 is definitely a much smoother experience than 2 though. Only problem I had on that was the crashing error from a couple weeks back that was corrected with a patch.

I can only speak for HL2, but so far it's running great. I wonder if DF or VG Tech will do an analysis on it.

I beat Gears of War 3 on Xbone. There was one area that stuttered, that lasted for a minute basically since you progress out of that area. Then there were about 3 or 4 areas where the framerate really takes a hit. These moments don't last long and I really enjoyed the game.

Post some clips!
Well.. uhh.. it being BC will add some input lag to it already. But probably 0. Already a next gen version, not published by MS, etc.
Only way I see it going BC is if they give it away GWG next year before tomb raider 3 comes out.

$30 at gamestop
It has always hovered around $30 used there. The print run wasn't super high until they did a platinum hits reprint and that was very small and hard to find as well.

Itching for some Katamari, hoping for Beautiful Katamari.
Wait, how do you make gifs?no problem here, just booted up red dead and tested it
http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/Digichan2006/screenshot/5029093#
EDIT
Can record clips and make gifs too
sorry that was a little vague on the details.
Once you record your clip using your xbox one, on the laptop/pc goto xboxdvr.com, type your gamertag and it will bring up videos or photos that you have saved. It's possible to do all this on your xbone but I not tried it yet.
On the video front select your chosen game clip and their should be an option to make it into a gif. It will take you directly to imgur or you could goto your own favourite gif making site. Select the section you want to turn into a gif and then select create.
Thats good to know. I just started the game on xbox one to catch up prior to gears 4!

NX Gamer ( I bet he's glad Nintendo has chosen the Switch name) tends to do quite a few BC performance analysis. Nothing for OB yet though.
thanx again microsoft for helping me do terrible awful things
Eww eww fire transitions too ugly, cringed to death.
LMAO. I've never seen a clip like that before.
I half expected a booming voice to come out "Watch the full match Sunday-Sunday-Sunday, if you dare..."
or... I'm guessing that's a training or a challenge mode or something?
*slow claps this shit*
Have you tried doing a hard reset of your console?
Even though I own The Orange Box digitally, I still had to do this before it would let me launch it after downloading it.

I have a few random HL2 clips. You can search my gamertag "amdboomer" on xboxdvr.com to see them.

I don't understand why I can't get Guwange on the Xbox One even though I owned the damn game since its release. Its never on my list, I tried xbox.com and set it to "Download to Xbox 360" (doesn't work) and tried the store on the Xbox One UI. Nothing. I don't get it. I always had the same Gamertag as well. Strange.

If you use the marketplace link from this site, does it say that you own the game?
Maybe there are 2 different versions out there ??
If it says you own it then contact support, maybe they can help you.

Nice. I am hopefully finishing up GOW UE so will be jumping into 2, then 3 on BC. Nice to hear they are both running pretty good at this point.

My $8 Blue Dragon retail discs off ebay finally arrived
im ready this time compared to Lost Odyssey lol

Same! Just ordered my copy of Blue Dragon on ebay.
Did Guwange ever have more than one publisher? I have Gauntlet and Streets of Rage 2, but my license for both are from a different publisher, so they are not BC.Hopefully the issue with Guwange is not the same.
Are you sure? Streets of Rage has always been published by SEGA, but only the SVG Collection is BC, apart from a brief period earlier this year when that was swapped out for the standalone game, so it clearly works under emulation, despite being a completely different developer.
Doom 3 BFG is now on the store (not available yet).
https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/store/p/doom-3-bfg-edition/bsjp1xgp79p5
This will make it the first game BC via disc only, available digitally. Digital versions of LO/BD incoming?

Fuck it. I'll buy Doom 3 for the tenth time.
Speculation on Reddit that it may be Novembers GWG, which should be announced this week, too.
Oh yeah that's soon. Probably best to wait for good measure. Still I'd be down for a little more Doom 3.

Lost Odyssey has a page too and has since the beginning. I wouldn't read much into it. Seems to be part of their new unified store mechanic.

Ohh well ignore me, just saw it on Reddit and they said it was new.

I finally took the time and went and voted for all of the games I have left that aren't yet backwards compatible. I noticed that Hexic HD was listed as backwards compatible, but I hadn't marked it on my list. It never showed up on my "ready to install" list, so I went and found it on the store and it was free.
Just wanted to mention in case anyone else missed it.

Likely you got it on your hard drive when you bought your original 360. That didn't add it to your account though. You had to actually "buy" it on the site. I had that same issue.

I wonder if the Guwange thing has anything to do with when the game was purchased, I bought the game the day it came out and can't access it.
Currently in chat with Xbox support. You can check which day you bought the game here.
https://live.xbox.com/en-US/download/history I think your screen must be in windowed mode in order to scroll all the way back to this games release of 11/10/2010.

I'm downloading GUWANGE!!!
On Xbox One it said it was going to charge me $9.99 + tax but after making the purchase there was no charge, since I already had the game.
Both me and Xbox Support were surprised at this finding(they were just going to refund me the $9.99 after I rebought the game but there was no charge).
EDIT: looks like downloading Guwange is all it did, game won't launch... back to Xbox Support...

There is a service outage right now. I can't play any games that I bought online at the moment. It could be that.
