"So the games get put on there for free without permission, and Microsoft don’t pay the developers to do it?"
Gangsta was using sarcasm to echo and disprove the sentiment that some users have expressed previously.
Analogue do it best.

The machines Analogue builds use a special type of chip known as a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). These chips can be configured to run identically to the original silicone found in the classic machines. This is not emulation as there is no software layer, for all intents and purposes it is the original chipset using utilizing updated hardware.

What exactly did WE do UC?
The FTC is enforcing a 1975 act stating that companies many not impose repair restrictions on the consumer for any product costing over $5, is this something you've been campaigning for?
Not having a go and I agree with the other posters - this IS great news for consumers, just seems like a strange thing to post on a topic I've...

Thanks! It worked :)
@Starsi
Me too!
For a game that's 15 years old it looks and plays really well. One question how the hell do you activate the Uber ?
It says press L and a button but no matter what I press it doesn't activate ? What's L?
I really hope they upgrade the 2012 SSX to 4K, that one's on gamepass too :)

Nice :)

Your logic and thus your math is flawed.
1. You're assuming that every single user Xbox User is using backwards compatibility, by your own admission this is incorrect.
2. You're assuming that every single user has owned the Xbox for two years since BC became available this IS incorrect, we know this because of shipping data.
3. You're assuming that every single user has played every month fo...

"Save Xbox" a brand that just reported 2.25 billion gaming revenue in the last quarter with 19% YoY growth, whilst the author of this article is fishing for 5 cent clicks with a provocative title.
I'm not sure that a lowest denominator website passing judgement on a multi billion dollar company that is showing incredible growth is appropriate.

***"Microsoft has profits but they do not report profits from gaming...."***
You don't know what you are talking about.
Microsoft literally just released a full quarterly financial statement where they announced that the gaming division had generated operating revenue of 2.25 billion dollars this quarter.
Up 19% year on year, making up 11% of total income generated, which equates to more than Wind...

You can always tell when Razzer is triggered because he drops the nonesensical arguments and made up facts and figures and resorts to bad language.

How does Tombraider selling better on PS4 effect a player's experience of the game?
I'll take the 4k 30fps / 1080p 60fps presentation on the X over better sales on Pro any day of the week.

***"I love this site everyone gets down voted when they talk about positive things about xbox, so sad smh"***
Embrace the disagrees, they rarely mean anything other than some insecure guy or girl cannot think of a logical comeback to your argument, so rather than reply and look ridiculous they take the easy option of spamming the downvote button in the hope that it triggers you just as much as downvotes trigger them.

Good point well made.
@Pete
Haha, the disagrees - . I mean what are these people actually disagreeing about lol.
Are they disagreeing that Dishonored 2 is a great game that I'm enjoying and they're trying to tell me that I'm not enjoying it? .. I mean maybe they're right and I'm actually not and just haven't realised lol..
Are they disagreeing that the original Xbox version is blurry and they think it isn't, maybe I need glasses....
I like the idea of Stadia, but I'm not sure the network infrastructure is currently in place for it to succeed.
The idea of being able to instantly access a game without updates or downloading, the freedom to play on any display with near instantanious boot times combined with Stadias ability to combine multiple instances of it's servers to deliver a better player experience have the potential to make it a game changer.
I think data caps need to ...
