Awesome, the best console library ever also accommodates Xbox One games!

Per title basis rather than a pure across the board native emulation but I will take it.

huge, is there a list of games or is it all? and what about digital games on the 360? I am in the preview program so I should have access to this.
 
When does it go live for preview users? Just tried ME and no luck.
 
This is a very big deal!

Wish I hadn't sold all my 360 games now, but at least my digital library still exists. I may just end up buying a few if they have a 360 store on Xbox One.

Already queued up Small Arms and Hexic HD to the list...super pumped about XBLA games that I previously purchased coming to the Xbox One...hoping Zuma, Astropop, Hexic 2 and some of my other favorites will make their way soon as well! Like someone else said...wonder if the free games with gold ones will come as well?

Also, curious as to if the Kinect games for the 360 will make the list some day...have the first 3 Dance Central games and the Kinect Sports ones as well which I hope will eventually be BC
 
Nice feature but I really couldn't care less personally.
 
Man I was hoping old school original Xbox games too. Oh well. Hopefully, it's all 360 games (100% guaranteed to work; no bugs/freezes) and not just selected popular/AAA titles.
 
Interested to see how games on multiple disc's work. Hopefully you don't need to swap.
 
Looked interesting to me until seeing that you have to download the entire game even if you own the disk.

Why is that a problem? It will mean better performance, and instant switching, etc.

hey it's free god damn it too. good on MS for this as it's just going to cost them money and not many really gains are in it for them.

PS. can someone send me an invite to the preview pogrom?

It wouldn't work otherwise. The games are being reworked to fit the Xbox One's architecture.

Plus you only have to do it one time for each game.
 
Based Xbox.

God damn.

I haven't watched the conference yet, some guy from work just dropped three spoilers on me; this, a god controller and zombie mmo. Trying to keep it spoiler free until I get off work, but this is f***ing great news... I've been gungho on BC since before launch. f***ing pumped.

Super excited - miss my Hexic HD playtime! Found that game relaxing and would play a bit before bed!
 
If I had known this was coming I probably wouldn't have given away some of my games though. And probably would not have bought Fruit Ninja two which seems basically the same as the first Fruit Ninja. Any one else having issues with Xbox Live? None of my pins are showing up and when I try to get into the preview app it keeps giving me an error message. I did get in long enough my first try for it to say there was an update available but now I just get bumped out and the error message.
 
I bought ton of arcade games last gen and hoping most, if not all of those eventually are added!
 
Looked for a few of my BC titles like Perfect Dark and Hexic but they're not showing up on my ready to install list. As a matter of fact, nothing is on there.

I'm sure they're having some problems due to traffic. No pins either.
 
I wonder if these games benefit from X1.

I remember Mass Effect having alot of slow downs.

I have aa 10GB data cap is why it became a useless feature to me, otherwise I would be excited about it.
