  2. Purchasing Backwards Compatible Games

    I'm thinking of purchasing an Xbox One, and I was wondering if I need to own physical copies of 360 games in order to play them on the Xbox One? Are all or any of the 360 games in the BC program available for purchase from Xbox marketplace
    via Xbox One? I've never owned an Xbox and I was very excited about the BC Possibility, I just can't find an answer to the question: Do I have to buy old physical copies of 360 games? Also, do people play Team Fortress 2 on Xbox One online? Can I find matches?

    XBOX BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY GAMES

    Dear microsoft, i am having problems when i try to buy a xbox 360 games, with the same credit i already had bought a xbox one game and even suscribe some time ago to xbox game pass. I already have tried to change all my settings in xbox 360
    manage as i have done with xbox one to buy US marketplace, but it doesnt work at all. Please could you help me with this issue because i cant buy fight night champion an it is in the deals that finish today. Thanks
    Well two things first the 360 marketplace isnt the same as the xbox one

    In order to.make us purchases you must have a us payment option on file and a valid.us address

    Using a us paypal account wont work on 360 purchases

    And your physical region must be the same as your account region

    That problem i solve it yesterday, already is in US and my physical place is not in US, i tried with a vpn and may that could be the problema..... i think because i dont find another solution to something that happens just with 360 games

    Why do I need to pay for games I already have on Xbox 360?

    No, I did not purchase them digitally. I have physical copies of all my Xbox 360 games. I didn't start purchasing digitally until Xbox One since you have to install the game anyways.

    So, I have the games already on my 360 but when I go to get them on my One they want to charge me. I don't understand this. All the 360 BC that I have on there now like Burnout, all 3 Bioshocks (360 versions) and a few more, I was not charged for.

    So I am wondering why now I need to pay for games I already have for the 360 rather than the way it was before where I was not charged
    You need to put your physical game disc in your XBOX One, then it should automatically start to download the game. Note that you'll need to insert the disc every time you want to play, just as you would on the 360.
