Can we now agree VR games look good enough if this is considered amazing :)
Will the original Fable be supported, I still have that game, still the best in the series.

No, wrong console.

Considering even full remasters of PS2 aren't that impressive on PS4, I'm not sure I would be impressed with the og Xbox games on X1.

obviously the big difference is this is a frree service for people who own the old games :P

That is a big positive =]

But for me it doesn't tell much because I rarely go back to play my older games... just a few loved ones when they get real upgrades. But for X1 userbase there may be a lot of value.

So does anyone know if these graphical enhancements are just for downloaded copies or the disc copies as well?

According to Polygon, discs should work too. And if you bought them on 360 digitally, you have them here.

Lol  that the second time I've asked that and someone responded to a different question.

Yes, I know the discs work but do they get the graphical enhancement? It's unclear. Do you need a digital copy to get the update or will the discs get them as well?

Nice, all classics these days should be run at a higher resolution then they originally released. Yes Nintendo I'm looking at you, there's no excuse for the Switch's VC to run n64 games at 480p (or less), so deliver.

It would be amazing if VR got some games people cared about. Har har har!

jk... sorta...

 

ON TOPIC: I'm impressed how much these games benefit from a resolution boost. This is why people say 480p to 720p was huge.

I still got a bunch of OG Xbox games, hopefully many get added over time.

Um...not what I would call amazing...downsampling would be really nice, given how much better XOne's hardware is compared to OG XBox.

I'm pretty sure it'll be like Xbox 360 games. The disc probably won't actually run. It'll be the key to gain access to a digital version (with all enhancements). You'll likely need your disc every time you play unless you buy it from the digital store.

 

This is just my best guess, though.

KOTOR is probably still better than most games out now.

They look pristine, very impressive! I love how MS is handling the BC stuff, shame on Nintendo and Sony.

I'm still hoping for Xbox Live compatibility, though it will probably never happen. Can't wait to play the GTAs!
