It's a great reason to own an Xbone. It helps when the games I don't already own are usually pretty cheap. Got Oblivion a few days ago for only $15 and that's what I've been playing lately.
Shouldn't that speak to the quality of your console's games (or today's games) more than anything else?
There are so many games out there releasing almost every week and people would rather play 360 games?
Yea I mean some of the stuff on the first page.. wow.This thread does make it seem like it's OK now.
I'm still amazed at how they pulled this off. How many games are bc now? It seems like there are 3 or 4 new ones every week or so.

About 300 at the moment. Much better than their Xbox BC initiative they tried to do in the 360 era.
Does this include anyone that played Rare Replay?
Because... *crickets*
Of course this very simple-to-understand fact is lost upon many, many people.BC gave me a chance to play through Undead Nightmare (RDR), have to say its an amazing feature. Really well done, adds tremendous value to the platform and respects the time you invested into the 360.
For me it just reinforces the message of moving away from generations, having future platforms fully compatible is a great idea.
lmao
Trophy Hunter here.
This lolMore like nearly that many people have probably launched a BC game at some point.

There are a lot of bc titles already that Ive never played until now, several for free. Great games. Hard to pass up free.
Hell half my 360 library has never been touched. Many of those are bc.
Wonderful feature. They gotta keep them coming.
MS has some emulation dev wizards over there.
I've bought several digitally in *anticipation* of them going bc lol. That has to be good for publishers
I'd stop if I were you. You're this close to being on my ignore list right this minute because of what you did.
Damn guys, it was the first thing that pop into my mind, why else would people play last gen games? (that you already passed 3 years ago mind you)
Obviously because there are no good new gen games at the moment or they are waiting for new games to come out. Right?
BC is great, and this thread is the exact reason i never tell people in real life that i play video games
Ugh yeah, I wouldn't mind giving Black another go. <3I can't wait for Xbox originals to appear, I hope XO are a reality someday.
My Xbox One basically only gets use at this point because of backwards compatibility so major props for that also improving framerates, load times and v-sync issues on the games as well!
.
If I want to play Xbox 360 games, I have a console for that and it's the Xbox 360. ;p
I haven't tried any backward compatible game on the XB1 and apart from Rare Replay, I don't think I ever will. MAYBE, I might play the Mass Effect games.
Having the option there is good for those who no longer have a 360 or just want to get rid of the console. Can't hate on that.
This will come as a shock but people play even NES, SNES, Genesis, PC Engine, Atari, PSX, Saturn games. Weird, right?
Ugh yeah, I wouldn't mind giving Black another go. <3
Also, I do enjoy reading console war shitposting for shits and giggles, but after reading the first page I got solid evidence that some shit here is fair game if it's directed to Microsoft/Xbox.
