Microsoft Games General Thread

To be honest, if most 360 games ran at 60FPS with Vsync ON, I'd be pretty happy with. Enough to upgrade to an xbone.

Two More Xbox One Backwards-Compatible Games Arrive

Microsoft has added 15 games to the program this month.

January has already been a big month for additions to the Xbox One's backwards compatibility catalog, and now two more games have arrived.

As announced by Microsoft's Major Nelson, additions to the library for today, January 26, include Rocket Knight and Shadows of the Damned. If you already own these games for Xbox 360, they should show up automatically in your Xbox One game library. If not, you can buy them on your console.

Microsoft has now added 15 titles to the catalog this month. Other recent additions included Alice: Madness Returns, Battlefield 3, and Battlefield: Bad Company 2, among others.

There are more than 300 Xbox 360 games playable on Xbox One via backwards compatibility. You can see a list of all the backwards compatibility games here.

In more recent news, Microsoft announced that players collectively spent 265 million hours playing Xbox 360 games on Xbox One in 2016.

Stuntman: Ignition is now Xbox One BC.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Daytona USA will be BC tomorrow. Yay!

[Matisfaction]

You can get a One S in the UK for around £190.00 , with the backward compatibility plus a couple of key titles, I'm super tempted ATM..

[Dr. Zoidberg]

It's worth it for the BC, because most of the games do run better, and there are some other good games on the system as well.

[Matisfaction]

I heard some BC games even run with Vsync, that's an 80% improvement right there.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

[Hawq]

[Dr. Zoidberg]

I've been planning on getting Army Of Two for a while. Better get it now before the price shoots up due it being BC.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

They should change the name of the Xbox One to the Xbox 36One.

[Matisfaction]

Pretty much all of my 360 library is now available on Xbone.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Civ Rev is another good one. Have to grab that as well.
