Forums - Microsoft Discussion - All the Xbox One Backwards Compatibility Games [Updated for June 29, 2017]

I check the Xbox website daily. I love BC.

All want at this point is
-Lost Odyssey
-Hitman Absolution
-Tomb Raider Legend
-Tomb Raider Anniversary
-Tomb Raider Underworld
-Enslaved Journey to the West

*Edit* the Batman Arkham games but I guess I'm buying the collection so this is moot.

And I'll box up my 360s.



Personally waiting on The Dishwasher Dead Samurai and The Dishwasher Vampire Smile- awesome, awesome games by Skaa Studios. Hearing that hundreds more will come has me feeling good  the other remnants will come.

After that, the 360 is getting dumped, replaced by the current 360S at that TV, to make room for Scorpio on the main.



PC I i7 3770K @4.5Ghz I 16GB 2400Mhz I GTX 980Ti FTW

Consoles I PS4 Pro I Xbox One S 2TB I Wii U I Xbox 360 S

Tales of Vesperia? :(



The BuShA owns all!

Sadly the majority of that list is XBLA titles.

I would also like to see Microsoft include the original Xbox games too.

Man, it's be awesome if MS extended their Play Anywhere program to backwards compatible games.

A few problems with that.

Its emulation so there would be high PC requirements to play old games. A gamepad would basically be a requirement. Much of the 360's library is already on PC.

Bringing some X1 BC titles to PC would be nice, but ports would be better.

I'm no engineer, but I assume that if an XBone can handle this, then so can my PC which outclasses the it in every way. And I think it'd be obvious that you'd need a gamepad.

I'd be OK with ports, but if I own the game on the X360, I'd rather just be able to get the game for free like you can on the XBone.

Yeah, YOUR PC could probably handle 360 emulation. But I think the average user would be annoyed they need a powerful machine to play old games with relatively bad graphics for PC.

Frankly, I don't think a lot of publishers would even support having their 360 games on PC. Personally I'm not opposed to the idea, I just don't think it would out well.

Not necessarily a bad thing, XBLA had some of the most notable 360 games. A lot of junk has been released on disc.

There are also a lot of games that may not come to X1 BC because of remasters or cross gen. I can think of like 30 right now.

You know, it's funny that we live in a world where people would get pissed off when a company ADDS a feature to their service.  But I guess you're probably right.

Agreed, even I see the irony of arguing not to bringing a feature to PC. In a nutshell, the PC audience might just be too nit picky to attempt that. Avid PC gamers don't like 30 fps caps for example.

MS could make more people happy by porting their best titles to PC which could a be a vastly superior way to experience those games.

Capcom has ported a bunch of games in a short period of time. MS could do it as well if they desired.

I'm not sure I see it that way.  Anyone who's messed around with emulators in the past knows full well that you don't really alter things like the frame rate in emulated games.  Console games were programmed to be a certain way, and the PC can only copy that, with shinier graphics.  I think if Microsoft advertised it as a 100% direct copy of the X360 experience, a lot of people would be on board.

Or I could be very wrong.
