Xbox 360 Backwards Compatible Games Unable to Connect to Xbox Live

Yes, I'm unable to connect to Xbox Live on the 360 through backwards compatibility.

I may be having a similar issue. Whenever I play a backwards compatible game, it tells me i'm signed in, but not connected to xbox live. When I try to connect, it says i'm unable to. I can connect fine on my 360 however.

The Xbox 360 can only play Backward Compatible games if it has an official Xbox 360 hard drive installed, and the game is listed on here If your Xbox 360 needs an update, then just connect the console to Xbox live, and the console will automatically check for the update and ask you to download it. If it does not, then your console probably already has it, and the game you want to play is not backward compatible.

Hi,

Backwards compatibility is built into the Xbox One at a hardware and software level, it can't be removed.

If you are unable to purchase games via the Xbox Store it's likely due to an issue with billing. I don't believe Xbox 360 games can be purchased on an Xbox One with account currency, you'll need either a Debit Card/Credit Card or PayPal to purchase these
titles. Backwards compatible games can also be purchased via the Xbox website.

Note: You don't need to buy backwards compatible games on the Store, you can also use original Xbox 360 discs. You'll still need to be connected to Live to download the Update (which is actually the game) in order to play them. The same applies to original
games on the list.

So, if you used to own an Xbox 360, own any disc games that are on the backwards compatibility list, you'll be able use these on your Xbox One.

Hope that helps.
