.saw someone mention this last night, but didnt get a chance to see if they got a reply...now cant find their post.
Would it be possible for EA access to put up 360 games on xbox one now? Or does it not work that way at all
Yes, it would be possible due to the way the Xbox One DRM works and the way the Xbox 360 licensing works.
EA could, in theory (and with Microsoft's agreement as I'm assuming the VM is all MS), have a VM with a 360 game in it. The 360 game in that VM would be flagged as licensed to that virtual console. Every virtual console could have the same ID in this case. It wouldn't matter. The game would run for whoever ran the emulator, regardless of it they owned a digital copy due to the console license.
Now the emulator itself is an Xbox One app. So it was setup to be a permissive rental (like XBO GWG or Vault titles) then it would only start up if you had the proper entitlement.
Why are people voting for Fallout 3? It's coming with Fallout 4.
Isn't that what you do to a Pinata?
Lets hope Rockstar are willing to allow Red Dead. It's at 22,500 votes and going up every second. This, Gears 3 and Fallout: New Vegas will make me happy for the time being.
Edit: Oh and PGR4! Does anyone play PGR4 still? Wondered if the servers are still active.

What I'm wondering is, since the Xbox One is running the Xbox 360 OS in a wrapper, and the 360 OS could emulate some OG Xbox games, could this run OG Xbox games? I wonder... Star Wars Battlefront 2 and Halo CE, 2 would be awesome. I'm curious if that's even possible - they'd probably have to pay Nvidia - and it would probably be more efficient to just emulate OG Xbox hardware on the Xbox One. If they could do that I'd be floored.
I'm dying of laughter sifting through older backwards compatibility threads. There are probably some other gems lying around.

I got you with one vote.have MS stated how they are going to evaluate compatibility requests?
really hoping VF5FS gets support, but it has fewer than 700 votes at the moment:

Wow.. That list........... I'm just at a loss for words
That said, who the fuck is voting for ME3 above ME2. Seriously.

People will vote for what they own, so it's not a huge surprise big selling titles are at the top.

If you were able to hold the button down and have it hit repeatedly it would have been better.

So excited for this, decided to re-buy my first Xbox 360 game to celebrate. Even found a brand new CE of it too for $9:
It wouldn't be too difficult to have them run natively, rather than simply rely on the 360 emulator.
In an ideal world, they'd be selling Xbox Classics on the store and the Live service would be re-enabled for OG titles that used it.
Will Rare Replay have online play for PDZ?Don't forget about Rare Replay this August. $30 for 30 games, and PDZ is one of them.
Of course, the PDZ CE is pretty sweet.
I'm scared to look at how much red dead redemption is on Amazon or eBay now

On the topic of Mass Effect, i think it is a safe bet to assume EA will add 360 games to EA Access Vault soon. A nice way to add value since they have so few new games launching this gen.
That's actually a super cool idea. Just post a box of like 40 discs and your gamer tag, then wait for all the games to appear on your Xbone. I assume the boxes can just be chucked in recycling as well.Posted this the other day but it got buried:
Would be great to see a recycle your old games (discs) get an upgrade to digital BC version for $5. Would be a great way for MS to get some PR points from the green part of it and hopefully generate some digital sales/further lock users in on the digital ecosystem on the business side.

I know Disney and Warner Bros did something like this for DVD to Blu Ray.
I'm sure that it'd be a nightmare to process via mail in and would require publisher participation but it would be a good way to get people to rebuy games and would generate some revenue from all of those preowned GameStop purchases they missed out on over the years.
This is my dream. Use those Azure servers for OG Xbox games!

Perfect Dark Zero (released in 2005, 1-4 players locally, up to 32 players online) A prequel to Perfect Dark that delves into Joannas origins and fuses first-person shooting with third-person.
Certainly looks like it.
So when is it possible to use Disc based games in Europe?
Wow.. That list........... I'm just at a loss for words
Yeah its pretty crazy. Complete with 360 dash, party chat implementation and all. Quite the achievement.Pretty friggin amazing how they are emulating a 360 on xbox one hardware 0_o
MS truly are software masters.
People want popular games.
I'd hope the results dont matter that much, as stuff like cod obviously gets more votes over smaller stuff like deadly premonition or vanquish.
The whole point of BC is wanting to play games you own, which is why people are voting for 360 Minecraft or halos when there's better versions out.

Vanquish already showed up in the game image rolls at the conference so it is pretty much confirmed it is coming.

I want Civilization Revolution, what's my chances?
Because that multiplayer was solid, and progress would be maintained. I'd love a good reason to play it again.
So this works like PS2 backwards compatability on all PS3 models, where you download the game + specific game emulator fixes. Then the emulator is in the PS3 system emulating the PS2 OS and loads the game.

That's almost enough to make me go out and get an xb1 right now.
