Fishy Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 For everyone who wishes to know more about the Xbox One's Backwards Compatibility, I have managed to copy and paste what us Xbox One Preview Program Members are testing at this moment. They gave us a Q&A sheet, and this is what it says. Now take your time to enjoy and read. However, the only thing we do not know for sure is matchmaking. I will update later once I find out, or if any other Preview Programmer has tested the severs. Thank you, and enjoy your read. Q: How do I play an Xbox 360 game on my Xbox One? A: You must own a supported Xbox 360 title. (For a list of supported titles, see below) If you have a supported digital version of the game, you can install the game from the “Ready to Install” section of My games & apps. If you have a disk version of the game, you can simply insert the disk into your Xbox One console. Q: Where is Borderlands? You showed it, but I don’t see it in Preview. A: We are continuing to finalize all the necessary packaging and validation work with our partners to bring your favorite games to the program as soon as possible. While not part of the Preview launch, stay tuned to find out when Borderlands will be available through Xbox One Backward Compatibility. Q: What about my other Xbox 360 games? A: We are continuing to add more titles. Not all titles will be supported but check back and see if your titles have been added to the list. Or go to Xbox Feedback to suggest your favorites. Q: Do I need to also own an Xbox 360 Console to play these games? A: No, you do not need to own an Xbox 360 console. Q: Can I buy these games from the Xbox One store? A: If you want to purchase these games, you can buy them digitally from the store on your Xbox 360 console, on xbox.com (search for titles in Xbox 360 games) or from your local retailer. Q: How do I get to the Xbox 360 Guide on my Xbox One? A: While playing your Xbox 360 game on Xbox One, you can access the Xbox 360 Guide by pressing the Menu and View buttons on your Xbox One controller at the same time. (Note: some games have additional functionality when pressing either the Menu or the View button individually. Be mindful there may be unexpected behavior if you press one button prior to the other. Check the Game Specific Issues in the Known Issues for workarounds in specific titles.) Q: Can I continue a game that I started on my Xbox 360? A: If you have saved your games to the cloud from an Xbox 360, you will be able to continue that game on the Xbox One. Some titles do not support cloud storage. In those cases, game saves will not be recovered on the Xbox One. Please refer to the list below to see which titles do not support cloud storage. For help on saving your games to the cloud from your Xbox 360 console, check the following articles: Setting up cloud storage on 360: http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-360/games/cloud-save-games Troubleshooting: http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-360/games/cloud-save-troubleshoot FAQ: http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-360/games/game-saves-in-the-cloud-faq Q: I saved my game on Xbox One but don’t see the saved game on my Xbox 360. What happened to my game? A: Xbox 360 game saves are uploaded after you quit the game on Xbox One. You must quit it from Home or launch another non-backward compatible game in order for the save to be uploaded. If you turn off your console, it will be uploaded when you turn it back on. Q: Can I play multiplayer with friends who are playing the game on Xbox 360 or Xbox One? A: Yes! For games that have multiplayer, you will be able to play with others who own the title on Xbox 360. For Xbox One users, only members of the Public Preview audience who own the game will be able to play with you during this beta. Q: Will I need to earn my game achievements again on the Xbox One? A: No, if you originally earned the game achievement on the Xbox 360 you will not get duplicate achievements nor lose your previous achievements.

BaconShelf Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 So can you CTRLC/V the list (or screenshot) of supported games? I would imagine the Halo games are supported, but I'm curious about Fallout 3/ Vegas and Skyrim. And what's the status of DLC? I'm in Britain and this damn preview thing is only open to America users. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drizzy_Dan Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 This is good stuff. Really looking forward to Halo Wars, Mirror's Edge, and GTA V 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Orbis Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 I'm in the preview program; unfortunately I don't have any 360 games that are supported. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in Britain and this damn preview thing is only open to America users. We do not know about DLC yet, but I am sure you can. Any Digital Content bought is accessible, for games that is. Besides, GOTY Editions would have DLC's and others would not. I'm pretty sure this it will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted June 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 When launching the game, you will be prompted with a loading screen as such: Also, notice on the DLC. As far as I have tested, it pops up with the Xbox 360 guide saying. "This item is temporarily disabled." So DLC is not available, yet at least. This also may be just the Preview Program. As far as games go, they work as well as they did on the Xbox 360. All you do is pop in your disc or load your Digital Content, and start the game. Note: It takes you directly to the game, it will not take you to the Xbox 360 dashboard. For those of you thinking of the Wii U's Backwards Compatibility setup.

Yoshi1176 Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Well we do have MCC and two new games coming out, they probably want to take care of some of the people who don't enjoy Halo as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishy Posted September 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Update: at Gamescon Microsoft announced that Backward Comaptibility will go live for all users this November. All new Games with Gold 360 releases will now be backwards compatible. Gears of War is available now for Preview Program. Additionally, users who bought Rare Replay are prompted to install the following titles that are from the Xbox 360: Banjo Kazooie Nuts & Bolts Jetpac Refuelled Though I don't seem to find this on the list. It is possible these two games are assumed BC. However, they may be just Rare Replay exclusive titles. I will find more information for future posts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
