Xbox One adds Xbox 360 backwards compatibility
- Thread starter Mugatu
- Start date
I'm pretty sure it didn't include BL1 because it ran on a different engine.

So if I do not have Borderlands 1 on 360, but I want to play it on my Xbox One, is there any way I can purchase it through the Xbox One store?
I know if I go on an old 360 and buy it then it will show up in my Xbox One library, but I want to buy it without having to do that.

How is 100 a month a slow drizzle?

Buy it off the web store.
So how is the DLC situation ?
Is it just integrated in one big image (whether you own it or not) or is each DLC a seperate download.

So hows the performance on BL1? Seems that Unreal games are getting pretty good these days regarding BC so im interested in hearing about BL1.
No kidding?!!
That would be a miracle.
I wouldn't be disappointed with 5 games a month.
Virtual Console
I'm saying if they just need publisher approval, just flip the d@mn switch and make it happen!
Don't tease me that this game may come to Xbox One...eventually.... If the tech is ready, there's no d@mn reason to make me wait.

You know you won't play it anyways

well, it's not that it's being teased right now so much as that it's still in beta. Things aren't perfect, hence us seeing updates for games Like Shadow Complex for example.
I wouldn't really complain about the rate theyre coming out till it's officially out of beta.

They have to test the games and make sure they work with the emulator.
Unsure, there's seemingly no sign of anything beyond the one title to download, but it refuses to install 100% as its refusing to recognise my digital license
Iirc games with uniquehardware are out.

Learn something ne every day.
As for BL, I didn't own the DLC, yet the game has granted me all of them.
Well, now I'm torn. If they kept this system then, that'd mean everyone playing Halo 3 and Reach via the One BC would have all the DLC...
Lol they won't keep it, publishers won't be happy with that. It'll definitely get changed.
Yeah, I assume its due to the preview nature of it all still
It's not like they're still making a lot of money out of them though.
In multiplayer games that would help a lot in keeping a user base around, since DLCs split players and kill communities.

Ew, what
Must be due to the opening song. I would rather have those features disabled than not have the game BC, and I would welcome this solution for any game that runs into licencing issues.
which is stupid since you know, it's on PC which has a print screen BUTTON. And any software can record it.

That's... really bizarre.
And the BS version definitely comes with the DLC then? So I don't have to worry about corrupting my saves?

It's not stupid, it's a question of if the system allows such restrictions. "Why do you sell your music? I can download for free via torrents!" If you have a system which allows what you want to achieve, you use it. Just because you can easily circumvent it on PC makes no difference.
Well, that's good! Then you can play it on your Xbone! So if you're low on money and want to play games on Xbone, go for cheap 360 ones.

I've only ever played BL1 on the 360 for the first mission and never owned the DLC, yet it started up with prompts showing all the DLC had been installed (on XBox One, obvs).
When I tried to access the Online Store, it gave an error which said 'Marketplace not available. Try later'.

So does geowars1. And in that game, any noticeable input lag is game breaking. Not sure why people aren't making more of a stink about it like they do with frame rates.
It's integrated into one big image. No seperate downloads. Played through the first bit and when I got the ability to fast travel, the DLC locations were there. I didn't try it but I assume it would work, and I'll try in a sec to confirm.

I wonder if "fuck it, DLC is free" will be the norm, or if this was a very specific case of Gearbox/2K knowing they probably wouldn't get a worthwhile amount of profit from BL1 players 5 years and a console platform later and just giving a free pass. That's probably the case, but if it does become the norm, that would make future GWG releases a bit more interesting.
Because "normal" players don't notice input lag. Hell, some people don't even notice a difference between 30 fps and 60 fps...

I kind of have a feeling that GameStop will be watching BC like a hawk and start driving up the costs of used games in the program. :/

Went on and voted for a bunch of games this morning. Most of the games that I voted were in the middle of the pack. A few that I voted for include; Shadowrun, Iron Brigade, Brutal Legend, and Rez HD. Thanks for taking this on Microsoft. Fees good man.

I was willing to pay for it but I'll take it for free!
Behemoth just announced that Castle Crashers is going to be backward-compatible "in the near-ish future". Owners of the 360 version (ME!) will be able to get it for free until 20th september, then it's going to cost 5$ (4 for us europeans like Minecraft then?).
That means EvB got another one right, even if that game already had a remastered edition announced.
I still have high hopes about his list, I hope he got atleast half of that.
Here it is, for those who missed/forgot it:
