Xbox One Backwards Compatibility Thread: Everyone wants it, no one uses it

LEGO Star Wars III, and The Clone Wars, are the same game, are they not?

One is a LEGO game based on the show, the other is a third person action game with the art style of the series or something.

Both games are on sale this week, while LEGO Star Wars II is only available on disc.

LEGO Star Wars III, LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy, and Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Republic Heroes are the only non-Kinect Star Wars titles left.

Complete Saga is already BC and includes content from LSWII.

My guess is that LSWII was overlooked since LSW:TCS is a more-or-less a definitive release.

While this is true, I wouldn't be surprised if they made it BC anyway just to have it available for those that want it (which would probably only be a few people that don't own TCS, which is GWG later this month, or achievement hunters).

I mean, if we're getting remastered games BC as well, I don't see how adding LEGO SWII would hurt anything.

So supposedly Black Ops 2 is the #3 played game on Xbox One right now.

Wow, I'm surprised to see Overwatch so high on the list. Every time I hop on to play, I can't find any matches besides whatever event is going on.

So I went to play Phantom Breaker: Battlegrounds just now to finally finish up the achievements, and apparently they released a new character 2 months ago?!?

I don't think I've seen another 360 game get new DLC after being released on BC.

It wouldn't hurt anything, it'd just be a waste of time and budget.

Honestly, I'm not sure how much testing any of it would have to go through since LEGO TCS is already available. I'd assume not much. Plus, it'd just be another title to add to the overall number of released titles to the program.

I'm not 100% expecting it to come, all I'm saying is I wouldn't be surprised.
 
Now if we could get some NCAA Football 2014 action for BC...PGR 3 and 4 would be nice as well...but damn, what I wouldn't give for NCAA Football 2014 to be BC...

Is it seriously still not possible to play music and play a game at the same time

Why do I even use this thing

That's one thing I look back on and remember playing the original XBox 360 shortly after launch and playing Project Gotham 3 and listening to music at the same time that played from my computer library.
 
Can you guys teach me how? I'm playing the music with what's called "media player", but then when i press the Xbox button and click on geometry wars again it stops playing the music.

The apps that support background music are Groove, Podcast, VLC and Simple Background Music Player. I think Spoticast for Spotify also supports it but I haven't spent $10 to find out.

Wasn't Spotify announced to be getting a UWP version on the windows store today btw?

Wonder if that will ever make its way over to Xbox, that's what I use everywhere else.
 
Just about everything I asked for is BC now. Time for a new wish list:

  • Beautiful Katamari
  • Wet
  • Lollipop Chainsaw
  • Naughty Bear
  • Amped 3
  • Full Auto
  • Gun
  • Captain America
  • Driver: San Francisco
  • Asura's Wrath
  • LA Noire
  • The Simpsons Game
  • Gameroom (I know, lol)


Yeah these as C and D list games but I would like them to be playable again.

Do you think Asura's Wrath has a decent chance of ever being b/c? My 360 isn't hooked up anymore, my PS3 is, but I'd rather play it on XB1 over PS3. And I see it's on sale on Xbox right now.

Wondering the same for the DMC collection (that is also on sale)....

Man, Autosport would be great. I feel like that game didn't grab the same mindshare as its predecessors thanks to launching on 7G consoles after their successors had hit shelves. Also, I'd be hopeful it'd come as Codies have greenlighted a few things on BC already.
 
In no particular order:

Batman Arkham Origins (only Arkham title missing in Xbox One)
Sonic Generations (I am pretty sure this will come sooner or later)
Splinter Cell Trilogy
Max Payne III
Ninja Gaiden II
PGR 4 (doubt it will happen)
Top Spin 4 (No tennis games this generation, though I guess it would be a licensing nightmare)
MGS HD Collection (would be cool to have the games playable on Xbox ONe)
Devil May Cry HD collection (all of the series would be available on Xbox One)

Absolutely, it's a shame it came out when it did because it was a fantastic game. Fell way under the radar but it gives me hope that Codies' next GRID title is even better if their recent return to form (DiRT Rally, F1 2016) is anything to go by.
