Cannot download accounts on Xbox 360 via backwards compat on XB1

Hi,

As some additional information. to the answer already specified.

The backward compatible game while it is the same game the download is basically different version of the game, being the backward compatible version of the game. This is also the reason why inserting a backward compatible game via disc will result in the
backward compatible version being downloaded (disk is still required to start the game)

So in order for you to download that backward compatible version you will have to login to the Xbox Live Account that is used on the 360, which allows you to download backward compatible games that you own.

Xbox One isn't backwards compatible as you know, the games you downloaded are Xbox 360 games.

They aren't considering backwards compatibility. They are considering an emulator that will allow the Xbox One to play 360 games via streaming or downloading. It won't actually read old 360 discs, though.

Only the BC games show up on the XB1 store. Otherwise you have to purchase via X360 or Xbox.com.

The full list of BC games can be found here

The game is a backwards compatible game so you will be buying the 360 version of the game (there is no One version). So even though it says it will download to the 360, you will be able to play and download it on the One.

Typically that the message about needing to buy on xbox.com or on a 360 comes up if you're on a child account or trying to make the purchase via your Microsoft account balance. In order to purchase backwards compatible content on the One/website, you have
to use a credit card or Paypal.
