Sorry if this has been asked before, but how do I go and download the Gears of War 360 games if I own the remastered XBOX ONE version? Everytime I select the games in the marketplace they say bundle and clicking doesn't allow me to download the games.

You don't own them yet, they send the codes out next month.

In Sony's defence, it's not them being 'lazy' - emulating the Cell on a PS4 just isn't possible. Microsoft pulled off an enormous technical achievement getting 360 emulation running, and that system was leagues less batshit than the PS3 was.

Why is it impossible? What specifically is the bottleneck?

How do I buy Fallout 3?

I know it was offered as an incentive to pre order the XB1 version of Fallout 4 but I already have it on PC. I don't have my PS3 anymore, my PS4 can't play it, and on PC it needs tweaks to get working. XB1 is the best option.

However, it says on the store website that it's bundle only. Can I really not buy it unless I buy FO4 for XB1??
Click to expand...

The 360 and XB1 stores aren't properly integrated together yet, so you need to make sure you're on the 360 store page: http://marketplace.xbox.com/Product/Fallout-3/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802425307d5

Gears 3 definitely has performance issues, last I played I wasn't as sensitive to low framerates as I am now but the campaign was not that bad. It was only bad in the later waves of horde usually when a bunch of explosions were going on.

GUys, how do I go about getting NiGHTS INto Dreams onto my Xbox ONe? I dont have my xbox 360 anymore and I never had it on that, however I see it is backwards compatible and I am able to search for it on the store using my X1, however there doesnt appear to be a download section?

Can anyone help - I really want nights!! :(

They need to quit with this shit. Same thing happens with skins for special events. We were given the Halloween one to USE before Halloween, then it disappears before Halloween was even here and won't be unlocked until this month. What's the fucking point? Not even Halloween anymore.

Buy it on Xbox.com for Xbox 360, you cannot use your Xbox credit to do so though, unfortunately.

I asked in another thread but didn't get an answer, so here goes again:

Played Gears 3 for about 3 hours last night, there were these weird hiccups especially during checkpoints: the game would freeze for a few milliseconds. Similar to Fallout 4 problems, but not quite that severe.
Anyone else noticed this?

Really hoping they can get Tomb Raider: Legend, Anniversary, Underworld (including the DLC) made compatible soon.

Surprised they haven't already. It could have helped with their Tomb Raider messaging at the moment.

All in due time.

I am fairly certain they will add 10-20 new games every month.

Hope so. I saw Bioshock Infinite is due for next month, so I'm hoping the DLC for that makes it in too.

Forgot to mention but would be good if they could get Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light compatible too.

Was a little devastated when I tried to boot up Geometry Wars that I had downloaded during the preview, and it failed to start, giving me a "Do you own this?" message. But then realized I could set my Xbox to offline mode and it would boot up just fine.

Will Xbox One wheels be compatible with Xbox 360 games that supported a wheel?
Click to expand...

Nope. When I fired up dirt 3 the tx wasn't recognized, was kinda bummed since Forza Horizon is probably coming and I own it digitally.

When gears 2 (not 3 I know) was released and you played it from a HDD install the game would pause for a moment at checkpoints because it was saving to the HDD as well as loading from it, so there would be stutter.

Since these emulated games run from the HDD they most likely have a similar issue when they save and load at certain spots.

Non Rare Replay versions of Kameo, Perfect Dark, Perfect Dark Zero, and the Viva Pinata games have just appeared in my "Ready to Install" list for some reason. I don't own them digitally. Anyone else encountered this?

sja_626 said:
Yeah I do. I guess it's something like that although before today I didn't have any duplicates except for Perfect Dark which I actually did own digitally. And the Banjo games and Jetpak don't have duplicates still. Strange.
Click to expand...

The same thing happened to me. I also noticed that the duplicated games had duplicated entries in the achievements list, one with full gamerscore, the other with 0/0.

Not sure what's going on there.

Click to expand...

The free Fallout 3 bonus offer for Fallout 4 is good until February 8, 2016. To get FO3 without buying FO4, you would either need to pick up a physical disc (normal or GOTY), get a code or buy it from the Fallout 3 page on Xbox.com.

Geometry Wars was removed from the BC program at launch. It is not officially supported.

The game's inclusion in the OP is in error.

The FAQ on the backcompat site says you must manually quit your Xbox 360 game or start another Xbox One game for your cloud saves to queue for syncing.

There's some multiplayer footage of Gears 3 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLFEGNo2-sc&app=desktop

It actually looks quite playable.
Click to expand...
Actually it's not as smooth when you actually play, but you get used to it. I think it's due to input lag because the video seems fine. It must be painful in mp because it harder to aim properly. Fortunately I only play horde. Here are somes other short homemade videos:

in beta testing the games save locally too if you don't have xbox live gold at the time, I tested it out a few months back.

Silly that it doesn't local save as well as cloud, you should be able to tell if you press start on the game and select manage, it will list it there.

Man, I forgot how much I LOVE Lumines! The fact that the manage game menu finally allowed me to redownload the Genki Rockets tunes (could never seem to do so on 360) is just icing on the cake. So good.

Yes, Lumines and NBA Jam were my legit surprise entries on the list. Thought those would be in some sort of legal/rights hell and never be released.

I briefly played through the first bit and a few early fights, sorry I don't remember how it originally ran but I didn't notice any performance issues with BC.

It is, I don't recommend because of the frames dying once people start bouncing. I've held my own but not trying to fuck some stats up to play for a bit, I can wait. Might play the campaign again

Fired up Gears of War Judgement this morning before work just to check it out. Had some really bad input delay. Is this something that happens because of the emulation?

For anybody who can't watch - performance is pretty good in this video. The cut scenes run a bit better on XB1. The gameplay is generally 1-2fps slower than 360.

Did you watch the end of the video? The framerate is much worse when fighting the Leviathan.

No-one knows what will come and when other than a few comments about games that may arrive in the next wave. And even then there's no guarantee they will make it, Geometry Wars was in the beta but didn't make it to release for instance.

Still can't believe crackdown didn't make it in the first 104 they seem to have a weird selection process like ac2 but not the first or brotherhood I'm just afraid there gonna hold crackdown 1/2 for a pre order bonus to 3 and that's really gonna piss me off
