    Backward Compatibility


    Just bought the xbox one. Spoke to three different sellers( Best Buy, Gamestop, and another) asked about the ability to use my 360 games all of them did not know how to do it but they said not to worry. I got the console only to find out that only1
    game by chance worked. I also called support to see a fix . Nothing. basically out of luck. If I had known this I wouldn't of upgraded. I now have 6 games that are useless. My only hope is to wait to see if they come out in the next year or so. Very bad information
    from the vendors and support. You wonder why people go to the PS4. No resolution from Microsoft corporate other than sorry which has cost me almost $500 and no usable console unless I spend a lot of money to get only Xbox one games.



    Has this happened to Anybody else ?

    :)

    Hi AntonioMiranda7,

    Because of backward compatibility you will be able to join parties, join games but only the xbox 360 game you have started up.

    Hi, Backward Compatibility does work on the Xbox One, but only the ones on the backward compatible list.

    www.xbox.com/.../backward-compatibility
    The list will be getting updated with more games every month. So keep an eye on that list, eventually your games may become compatible.

    I am extremely disappointed about this gimmick into getting you to upgrade to an Xbox one. I come to find out that some of the games that you mayou have for xbox 360 are just being repackaged for Xbox one and more than likely not making it to the list of
    compatible games for 360 (Brothers, Darksiders 2, etc.). I feel like this gimmick was an effort to try to beat PlayStation on the Christmas console war. My suggestion to all that ask me is to hold off and see how this thing plays out as there are many 360
    games that you can play until the truth comes out that you will have to re-buy Xbox 360 games that you love repackaged for Xbox One.

  7. I have to agree with some of this, has anyone really looked at the list they have. Some of those games 7ve never heard of and most look like kids games. I want BO1 BO2 AND OTHER CALL OF DUTY GAMES. And I dont under stand why I have to purchase a digital
    copy when I already own the disk to the 360. Sometimes I wish that I just have stuck with my ps3 and never went to Xbox. You guys cost to much and offer nother to your customers other then *** server's and crappy *** support...

    Backward Compatibility

    So if you really have owned a game out of the game list with compatibel games you do not have to own the didital copy of this game again. If the game is ready and on the list, jut pull in your game disk inside your "One" and let the XBOX do ist work: installing
    the game. After installing, just start it and your game save in the Cloud will be synchronized with your "One". I recommend to ply the game 1 or 2 times on your 360 again and save it at your Cloud ( just choose "Cloud" as the place for saving your Status.

    I have all my disk games installed now if they are compatibel and they work fine.

  9. Hello xMmmDoughnutSx,

    Sorry to hear that you are having trouble with Backwards Compatibility. There are several points I will quickly address, or re-address since this thread is 3 weeks old.

    First, if you own a physical copy of a game that is on the backwards compatible list posted above by StuartATrueRed, then you do not have to own the digital copy too. Just insert your disc into the Xbox One.

    Second, there will continue to be more and more titles added over time. If you have a preference for games, please visit

    xbox.uservoice.com/.../298503-backwards-compatibility
    to vote on your favorites or add a post you'd like to see included in BC.

    Third, for future reference if a post already has a verified answer and is several weeks old, make sure to create your own post by going to the Forum you wish to post in, look in the top right corner, and select Add a New Post.

    Hope this helps!

    ~Blitz

    Wheel of Fortune Xbox 360 game, want it upwards compatible

    While it is true that backwards compat is on hold. Every backwards compat licensing has to approved by the developer for that game to approve the ability of backwards compatibility. There are some developers unfortunately that will not allow there games
    to be backwards compatible .

    If it's not backward compatible then it's not backward compatible and never will be as they stopped updating the emulator years ago. The only Robotech game that is backward compatible is Battlecry.
