    Why are the Xbox 360 editions not playable?


    I own both Prototype one and Prototype two for Xbox 360, and i am eager to replay them on Xbox Series X. However, I am confused as to why they are not compatible but, in the Xbox store they are for sale, I refuse to buy them again as I already own these games.

    Why are the Xbox 360 editions not playable?

    Because they are not backwards compatible

    There are separate Xbox One ports of the games that are available

    Tere was never a guarantee of titles moving forward.

    Minecraft Xbox 360 edition, can't redownload

    This question may seem redundant, but are you trying to install the game on the Xbox 360 right? The reason for this being is often times people get a little confused as to why Minecraft has so many versions for example on Xbox alone there are three different
    versions: Xbox 360 (only downloadable and playable on the Xbox 360), the Xbox One Edition (a port of the Xbox 360 edition), and the Windows 10 edition now commonly referred to as Minecraft Bedrock or just simply "Minecraft."

    If you're on the Xbox 360 and it is making you pay for the game, even though you're under the impression you bought the game a few years ago, the likely scenario is that the game wasn't purchased under your account on that console. Since you mentioned having
    a sibling, the chances are the game could be downloaded through their account. You need to be logged into the account that purchased the game. Purchase history can be found at http://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders

    News regarding windows 8 and Xbox 360 integration

    It's far more likely that a windows 8 xbox edition will exist than 360 games will be playable on pc. I don't see how microsoft can create a 360 emulator without massive overhead and make it run on anything but the best, high end gaming pc's.
