Amazing
It actually features one of my all-time favorite soundtracks from Uematsu.

Huge fan of the backwards compatibility program. The fact that game after game is now proving to work better in the emulator than on the original hardware is stunning. Especially true since people were saying that backwards compatibility couldn't be done at all, considering the relatively weak Xbox One CPU.
Edit: I'll also add that my favorite part is just how smart it's been implemented, bringing all the benefits of the Xbox One, such as game streaming and recording... making digital titles just pop up in the "Ready to Install" section... pulling in cloud game saves... etc.
Soundtrack is pretty good effort by Uematsu. Probably had the music track turned off to avoid Youtube copyright strikes or ad-revenue grabbing.

Watched the whole video. Enormous improvement! Amazing.
@6:45 or 7:34 starting. What a difference!

Seriously the team that's been working on all this Backwards Comp stuff is just amazing. Even if I haven't gotten the game I wanted yet the most (Tales of Vesperia), they are doing a hell of a job not just bringing over games constantly now, but also making them run better than they even did on Xbox 360.
This + Tales of Vesperia would legit make me buy an Xbox One.

Awesome! I think I'll play this when I'm done with World of Final Fantasy.
This and Lost Odyssey. I know Mass Effect 2 and 3 were available digitally but come on Microsoft!

Just look at this @ 07:34 starting:
This was really a drag on 360.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Wow.
That is *VERY* impressive stuff. They've got some real amazing engineers working on the emulation.

Remember back in the early days of XB1 BC, where performance differences were being cited as a reason the feature was going to be worthless?
Good times.

Almost makes me want an Xbone. Not being able to play this, Lost Odyssey, and my Cave shmups was one of the reasons I didn't make the upgrade.

Much respect to that entire team.

Xbox Engineers confirmed to be the best on the planet.
Its more about license i believe. It is supported see Mass Effect and EA Access.
But i guess its more this.

I'm getting closer and closer to selling my 360 and just buying an xbox one this black friday (unless Sony allows full mod support for FO4 and Skyrim, which I doubt.)

I'm not being snarky but want to know what's so great about this game. I'm not usually into jrpgs but will check one out every now and then.

Can one of the 'why isn't this available digitally' posters please explain why they just can't order or pick up a physical copy and play the game?
It's not like they are expensive, any potential digital copy would probably be more costly. It's not like it's inconvenient, putting one disc in a drive to play the game. A game you apparently really want to play.
I'm not saying it shouldn't be available digitally, but why go without when you don't need to.

I refuse to buy discs any more, physical used copies of blue dragon and lost odyssey are quite expensive considering how old they are and how in demand they are now

Well that's big of you, I guess? I hope you don't have to wait too long. I'm off to play Blue Dragon some more.
Because discs suck.
I actually own Blue Dragon on disc already, and still want a digital version. I'm lazy enough that requiring me to switch discs influences what I play. I realised this mid-way through last gen (gravitated to XBLA games), so I went 100% digital this gen on both XB1 and PS4.
no need to be condescending
