They cockblocked it. You gotta go on the down low and be all stealthy-like to sneak in.

I really don't know why they don't have a separate section on the Xbox One store
for all the Xbox 360 games that you can play on the One

Set your console to "offline" and it should play just fine. I'm playing it right now. Just on my horse free roaming the land. Man this game is amazing.
Purchasing doesn't work on the One store, they haven't built the functionality yet.

Exactly. MS would of not spent the time working on getting RDR working without getting permission first. It would of been a waste of time, resources and money to do it and then let beta testers test it and not have received the go ahead from Rockstar. They probably are working on fine tuning it, getting the bugs that some had when using unlocked cstuff working properly.
For me, it has been running fantastic, have not noticed any slowdown or anything like that. It has been smooth sailing. I have not tried other outfits or anything, just playing the game as is and it runs great.

Both? No way. I mean maybe many years from now there could be a remaster, but if they're going to allow BC then don't expect that to happen anytime soon.

Why are people expecting a remaster?
They still haven't even released a PC version, so I don't see a remaster coming anytime soon.
The BC publicity got it to be the best seller on Amazon UK video games section.

Dude I've never actually seen the original non-meme-ified Jordan crying pic.My mom has been in town since the news broke. She just left so, I went to download it and couldn't find it. Started reading this thread why and I find my answer
This is hurting my head for some reason.

Just set my console to offline and the game is still working. Guess I'm not playing anything online for a while.
Devs can turn off capture stuff on PS4, but if they don't it is system-wide. Xbox restriction is not that you can't capture the screenshots, it's that you can't get them off the console for non-official stuff, which I think is dumb.

Yeah that wouldn't make sense at all before it was announced I'm sure Red Dead was already on a possible list, I mean it's Red Dead!

One thing I've noticed is my health doesn't go up or down sometimes or just stays with a full red bar. I thought I was invincible but I wasn't.

The loophole that people used to get it only worked for people with digital copies in the first place.

Goes on sale regularly for <$10, so I wouldn't bother buying it right now.

IMO Microsoft should use the preview program to test new BC games...

They kind of did initially. Preview program people were the first to try BC last year, but they weren't really testing the games as they were done.

No, but it does force vsync I believe.
Yep. It is upscale to 1080p and they enforce vsync (so no screen tearing, but you get a few frames of input lag).

I still haven't gotten around to playing this. (I own it digitally on ps3) and it's on my list between many jrpgs
Should I bother rebuying it? It looks like nothing significant has changed from the x360 version.
I still use my PS3 more than 360/xb1 at this time.
I played it on both systems (still have the PS3 physical and 360 digital) and the 360 version was vastly better.

I played on both systems and imho is worth rebuying on 360/one, since both games cant reach 1080 p, the 360 version with full 720p, better framerate, and minor but relevant graphic features is thr best way to play this game. The only thing the ps3 do better is the vsync, but Xbox one retro adds vsync.
Also the controller, but that is subjective.
Heh, no. Screenshot taking is locked on titles that aren't officially out.

Just saw the news about this "mistake".
Man, that's a heart breaker.

Wait, Microsoft pulled this? So those of us that downloaded on Saturday can't play it online?
That's like somehow snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Wow!!

They could just be privately testing and tuning their emulator thoroughly with games that may never get approved by publishers.

Spencer has said that's not how it works. They don't even start on a game unless they have approval by the publisher.

I'd nearly buy an Xbone just for this.
I mean, I wont, but I nearly would.

Just to clarify, if I buy the 360 version off xbox.com and follow the method that was used earlier in the thread I will not be able to play right now?
Cuz you is just waitin' for the Xbone to cross $150, amirite?
Jk.
Yes, they took it off for now, only people who already downloaded it could play it offilne.
Just write a letter to Xbox that you're a dissatisfied customer and tell them to hurry up and release it.

You'd think Jordan was ripped based on the size of that jacket. Nope. Just Jordan wearing his usual Mississippi pimp size clothes.

Just wanna chime in and say that the hard reboot did the trick. It's still not perfect (there's still some random choppiness), but it's a whole lot better.
Robbed some dudes blind at poker, forgot how much I hated Herbert Moon. This game is still great.

Next time do yourself a favour and buy an Xbox 360 instead if the only reason you are buying an Xbox one is for BC.
