  1. Backward Compatibility: Playing against both consoles, xbox one and xbox 360


    Does this mean that xbox one consoles can play the same game in the xbox one as the person using the xbox one Backward Compatibily app? Or do they both have to be one or the other?

    :)

    If you are playing an Xbox 360 game through the Xbox One's backward compatibility feature, you are able to play it online.

    While playing the Xbox 360 game online, players on both Xbox 360 and Xbox One consoles would populate the same servers and lobbies.

    As a sidenote, the Xbox 360 version of GTA V is currently NOT backward compatible with the Xbox One.

    Backwards compatibility is non-exsistant?

    Why is backwards compatibility such a huge issue for some people?

    - The backwards compatibility of the Xbox 360 with the Xbox was extremely limited, some consoles didn't even have it.

    - The backwards compatibility of the PS3 with PS2 was for launch consoles and became non-existent within 6 months of launch.

    - The cost of adding backwards compatibility to the Xbox One would be offset by an even higher price tag, estimating between $75 to $150 per console.

    - The durability, heat, and size of the console is reduced by not having to bother with hardware backwards compatibility with the Xbox 360, software backwards compatibility was disappointing and would have still increased the cost of the console to offset
    the development time into creating it, if it was at all possible.



    Fact of the matter is: The Xbox One is a better, cheaper, more reliable console without backwards compatibility, Essentially, don't buy an Xbox One until there are Xbox One Games that you want. Keep your Xbox 360 for your existing Xbox 360 games.

    Backward Compatibility: Playing against both consoles, xbox one and xbox 360

    Good question. With Windows 10 Microsoft has been promising cross play between xbox one and pc. I have a feeling it is still a ways out. Xbox 360 backwards only plays with Xbox 360 users from the last report I read.

    NOT THE MOST TECH SAVVY, PLEASE HELP?!!

    Hi

    Hopefully below should help you a bit

    1. Xbox 360 game discs can be used in Xbox One however the console needs to be online as it must download the backwards compatible version of the game. Please note the game disc is still required after downloading the game unless the game was purchased through
    the marketplace.

    2. With backwards compatibility Xbox One will run and Xbox 360 game along with an additional piece of software that (Emulates) the Xbox 360 on the Xbox One

    3. Providing the Xbox 360 games you are wishing to play can also be played on Xbox One via backwards compatibility then there is no need for both consoles

    Here is the current list of Xbox 360 games playable on Xbox One through backwards compatibility.

    Here is an FAQ list reference backwards compatibility that might help with answering your questions.

    Thanks for reaching out, Deadstroke469!

    Game availability will vary by region, so not all games may be available for digital purchase where you are, but if you're able to purchase a backward compatible Xbox 360 title, you'll be able to play that title on both Xbox One and Xbox 360 consoles. There's
    more information about that in the
    Backward Compatibility FAQ
    .
