  1. Backwards Compatibilty


    I remember Microsoft making a big deal about old games being made fully backwards compatible. Correct me if I'm wrong but is playing the old Gears Od War Judgement and it being so bad that it almost brings on an epileptic fit. The
    screen shaking and jittering all over the place?

    What planet is Microsoft on ?? Whats more why do we put up with the lies every time they bring out a new more improved console ? I've played Gears of War since its very first release and in all honesty where is the improvement ? Does GOW4 look any better
    than GOW 2, GOW3 or Judgement. Yes ..........but only ever so slightly. Xbox have had so much money off us over the years. It seems like their focus is totally in the wrong direction ie Money money money and more money, lets make as much money as we possibly
    can ????

    I can't honestly believe that a company nearly as big as Sony don't have the resources to finally fix the problems that still exist from the launch of the original Gears Of War? Connection issues, telling everyone that their will be dedicated servers but
    yet I can't see any notable difference in game play than 10 years ago. Ok Maybe ever so slightly but lets be real, 10 years down the line and still the same lag. As a matter of fact its got worse now. Every single night I go on if its not me its someone
    else that has problems with their headsets and not being able to communicate with their team during a game or shooting an opponent 3 times in the face to only see that player go down or worse still shoot and kill them on 1 shot. Its gone from bad to worse
    and I'm so close to taking my xbox outside to the garden and filming me burning it and posting it on as many sites as I can to warn everyone not to be sucked in with the endless promises of this and that. I do laugh though .......... how many new consoles
    have been launched over the past few years ? All purporting to be way better than the last ??? One thing they certainly are not : better at giving a consistent level playing field to gamers. Where you can get kicked from a game for connection issues
    and when trying to rejoin and cant get a 15 min ban? I mean come on Microsoft ??? We are the paying customer, where is the enjoyment in that. Too much regulation during and after game play. Its almost pathetic. If Microsoft could control the amount of
    under age gamers playing adult games they would find they have more time on their hands to make a real difference to the game play. Microsoft go on and on about the importance of gamers' safety, but hows that even remotely possible? when almost every game
    I play their are children that are clearly under the age of 18 playing games that include adult themes and material, let alone the bad language during game play. Its very hypocritical in my opinion.

    All the money, time and effort spent on cross platform gameplay, ' policing ' the gaming, and making games backward compatible. When Microsoft said they were making old games backward compatible I thought that meant that they were
    playable. I sold my old 360 and bought a brand new Xbox One, assuming that it would actually be ' Playable ' on the xbox one. I assumed wrong. Microsoft please please stop making idiots out of the paying customer. Its not fair.

    Backwards Compatibilty

    online games in backward compatible is always buggy because the software and the coding is different problems always will be there but not if its singleplayer.

    dedicated servers yes there are some but not linked with xbox servers.

    u may use a proxy and a third party software to do so to have servers to play in.

    but i doubt it that someone made somethin like that

    Backwards Compatible Request - Please I beg you I don't play games often but I love this one

    As mentioned above there will be no more backwards compatibilty for the One. They are focusing on Scarlett so it may be backwards compatible there.
  7. StuartATrueRed Win User

    This could be a good idea

    Yeah, the backward compatibilty program ended a few years back.

    Backwards compatibility on DC

    All dlc that are for games that is on the Backward compatibilty list are also backward compatible, you do not have to purchase them again.

    What changes within Xbox as a whole do you think have made the platform even better?

    Game Pass, Backwards Compatibilty and the online features are probably my favourites on Xbox.
