    SOOOO CONFUSED - DIRT 3 - BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY - XBOX ONE - GWL account - YES /NO ???


    So super confused SO I don't want anybody else to post on this thread so that we can get an OFFICIAL answer from someone that works in MS Xbox division.

    First, I have an ACTIVE GWL account, which I paid for BY credit card. The CC details ARE in my xbox account details on website and the xbox.

    Second, can we download Xbox 360 games for Xbox one OR NOT? WITHOUT 360 CONSOLE????

    Third, if so HOW? If not, WHY?

    I don't want work around. Just tell me if it is MY problem or MS problem. Dirt 3 deadline is today or tomorrow.

    :)

  2. DOOM II (from DOOM 3 BFG edition)

    Well these are the games which are now backwards compatible

    under the letter D:

    Deadliest Warrior: Legends

    Defense Grid

    DEUS EX: HUMAN REVOLUTION

    DiRT 3

    DiRT Showdown

    Discs of Tron

    Doom

    Doom II

    Doritos Crash Course

    Dungeon Siege III

    So this should include DOOM II right?

    Yes but first you need to go to
    www.xbox.com/.../games-with-gold
    and select “Download From Xbox Store” and then “Download To Xbox 360”. This will register the game to your account which will then show up on the ready to install list one your Xbox One.

    Got it working. Finally! Thank you Steve. You deserved a medal.

    Ok all. Plain English.

    I have an active GWL account.

    I have an Xbox one, no xbox 360 console.

    My CC details are on Microsoft database already because I got the GWL account.

    Before: When I go to download the Dirt 3 from the xbox 360 store website, I get .... NO VALID PAYMENT etc .... and I couldn't download the game.

    BUT is seems that ...

    (1) you have to register your CC from Xbox one to Xbox 360.

    (2) to do that, all I had to do was to change my location. I live in Hong Kong but the default for the billing information was the US?? Therefore I just went to

    live.xbox.com/.../AccountMigration

    and changed it and so now I can download 360 games. (remember I am in HK and the migration page would be different for you)

    Already the deadline for Dirt 3 has gone and I didn't download it but now downloading Dungeon Siege, which is a 360 game. Hopefully it will download and play without any problems.

    What a bother. Good luck ....

    Obviously, it is MS oversight.

    Why would I have to change my account from US country region when my CC is a Hong Kong based card, I am billed in Hong Kong so my registered address is in Hong Kong?

    When I applied for GWL, all my billing information should be HK and in their system already as HK

    Xbox 360 games on One without 360

    If the games are backward compatible (in this case Fallout 3 is), then yes you can play the game on an Xbox One. You do not need an Xbox 360 to play it. The full list of backward compatible games can be found here http://www.xbox.com/en-gb/xbox-one/backward-compatibility
