Who else would like more games on the 360 to be backwards compatible?

The Microsoft person who made the comment just suggested that it would run for at least 3 more years. It was not an official statement that it would end. At the time, backwards compatibility was not available and didn't look like it was coming at all. With
backwards compatibility available, the 360 servers will probably be running for quite a while.

Only backwards compatible games as far as I know

You would need to be playing a backwards compatible 360 version of a game on the xbox one in order to play with friends who are on a 360.

As Battlefield 4 is available on the xbox one I wouldn't think the 360 version would be made backwards compatible.

You can view all games that are backwards compatible at https://www.xbox.com/games/backward-compatibility and the 360 version of Skyrim is not backwards compatible.

Is it possible someone else had your console set as your Home at that time that would have had the games as well?

I doubt original Xbox titles are going to be made backwards compatible. Seems like an awful lot of work for something they stopped supporting on the Xbox 360.

It would honestly make more sense to have backwards compatibility for the Xbox 360. It would give people more incentive to switch if they could keep a few of their current games to play while they made the transition.

It's not gears 3, (for as far as i know gears 3 is not backwards compatible)

I can't download any backwards compatible game.

Is there another way then to log in on a xbox 360 console? like if i buy a physical disc of a backwards compatible game, would it work then? and would i be able to download 360 games after that.
