How does giving your fans their most requested feature for FREE= BC, make old games the future????

-lol, I wont play most of these again anytime soon but you could sell your 360 just to add to your X1 library, then play it all on 1 console which gives me alot of very convenient options along with NEW releases of some bigtime exclusives coming from now through out 2016:

Fable Legends
Forza6
Halo5
RoTR
Sea of Thieves
ReCore
Quantum Break
Crackdown3
Scalebound
Gears of War4

-hmmm looks like you conveniently forgot about those, huh?

Yeah ME3 is my top shame game in my back catalogue.

@DragonFly

Nothing is stopping you from playing all the new games released each year on Xbox One..... oh wait, you dont even own one

i will be playing Halo 5, Tomb Raider, Forza 6, Gears UE, Fable Legends and more this Year on Xbox One for new Games

I told you guys there's always that one guy complaining about everything.

@Dragonfly...PSNow says hi!!! I bet Sony invested wayyy more into PSNow than MS did. And they're CHARGING YOU for it...smh

@t-hall785

Your right cause you can't play your old games on your old console....SMH.

Owning Xbox feels like good sex. It keeps giving and giving. Keeping a smile on my face.

lewd

This generation seems to be defined by lame remasters and glorifying old games. SMH.

Wow, a whole 43 more games added to the list, totaling 140? That's Great! Only 1020+ more to go!

But seriously, this says a lot about the X1, when one of its most looked forward to features is to play last gen games (on an emulator that doesn't up-res them like the 360 did) and runs a lot of the games at even worst framerates than the 360. Yay!

And if you really cared this much to play your last gen games, then you would have kept your 360. Don't get me wrong, it nice to have the ability, but lets not get carried away with it. Oh but thats right, this is a rabid let's just say "fan" site, where everything your beloved company does is praised to Kingdomcome! And the greatest thing ever.

EA has said they want to bring all their last gen games to EAAccess.

I expect EA will release all their last gen games through EAAccess...meaning you'll need to pay to play all 5he Dead Space games and Mass Effect games.

I di hope though that those who already own the games can still play them without the EAaccess...however, I have EAAccess so either way, i'm covered.

None of these games show up on the official Xbox site list. Can anyone confirm these for me by popping Infinite in their Xbox One? I will buy it tomorrow if true.

Left 4 Dead 2

The 360's haven't red ringed for years

There's also good benefits to playing these on Xbox one instead of 360 as you get to use the Xbox one controller, the system is almost completely silent unlike the 360 and you have acces to all the Xbox one interface features like video clips, screenshots, broadcasting etc.

If the BC in the Xbox one was not very good I would have said get a 360 but the BC is just so very good, even getting games to run better in some cases. You are crazy if you go out and buy a 360 now, put that money towards an Xbox one and you are sorted.

You get next gen features on your xbox one, it's better to play your old games on new hardware. It's not the same as 360's backwards compatibility.

You can also record video and take screenshots.

Games load faster than on the 360. You have a singular catalogue.

You dont need two consoles sitting under your TV.

You dont need to have multiple controllers lying about.

There are many reasons why having BC is a great option, and thats what it is, an option. It doesnt take awy from new games, xbox one games etc.

It just adds to it.

there are plenty of people out there who have never played these games. So the xbox one now has a very large game library, and with all the high quality upcoming titles this year and next, there is no reason not to get one if you enjoy gaming.

Ignore the fanboys and jsut have fun with Games, dont play the console name game.

"Why would he spend more money buying a 360 when he already has a console that will allow him to play his 360 games?"

mainly because the One will never have 100% BC for many reasons, expired licenses for example. The 360 will play all 360 games with no problems, excluding any online only games that have had their servers taken down for whatever reason.

@Imalwaysright

Obviously if he has 360 games then he obviously has a 360 to go with it.

Or get an xbox one and get 4 free games a month.

Why buy a xbox 360 when I can buy Xbox One this holiday and play Xbox One and my 360 games. This makes it easier for those who already have 360 to make the jump.

Xbox 360 can't play Xbox One games though...

So if I have the the Xbox One you are telling me to add buy the 360 instead?? All I be missing is my friends on Xbox One along with online MP, also would have to switch from the Xbox One to the 360 along with reconnecting the network....Now thats pretty backwards to me....I cant wait for us to be able to jump to 360 games when ever we want too. Check this scenario out...Playing with friends Gears Of War Ultimate Edition,(you know what would be cool is to jump onto horde mode on Gears of War 2) I know of all my friends have it boom jump onto Gears 2 easy as pie...Come on you have to admit this feature is pretty killer. And the fact that many people are ecstatic proves it.

Most gamers already own one. B/C would allow you to sell your old XBox 360 consoles. Use the money to buy the new games coming out this holiday on the XB1. I'm glad they added the Witcher 2 to the list. I still have a sealed collectors edition version that I'm thinking about selling.

You guys downplaying BC should just stop, your methods are downright embarrassing.

PerossTROLL..
RROD has been non issue for half a decade. In fact the past to xbox360 revisions have haf the most stable and built in safety features !

BC is awesome, on top of all the great games released and VERY soon to be released on the XB1 we will soon have FREE BC as it should be!

I don't know this, but there may be the option to buy the digital version, if you don't already own the game. I say tis because you don't actually play your old games, when you put them in the drive, a digital copy is downloaded. I suspect this is why some publishers are quick to approve BC. Hopefully the price is dirt cheap.

At least this debunks the argument that publishers won't allow games to be Bc because of remasters . Also I have ds2 on 360 and xb1 I will probably install the backwards compatible version too because of the characters I created on 360 I'm on ng++

Lol ridiculous point of view. So why is it a waste to add ds2 again? Give any real reason. If the publisher agreed then it is little work on MS's part to add it. If I already own it on 360, why should I be forced to buy the remaster? Maybe I want to be able to record while playing? Can't do that on 360, but I can do that on the One with the 360 version of the game, so there are benefits of playing the old games on the newer console. Fail to realize this or....? SO why again? Oh yeah, you're a butthurt little fanboy. My bad
