XBOX DISCS WILL WORK FOR BACKWARDS COMPADIBILITY

>>379940038
>Your original xbox discs will work

????????????????

>Digital licenses will carry over
Does this mean if I bought one of the Xbox Originals on the 360 I can download it on the X1 too

>>379940181
Certain Xbox titles did work on the 360.

>>379940181
Xbone,Xbone S, Xbone X

Isn't that a hardware thing though? Won't I have to buy a newer Xbone if I want to play OG Xbox games on one? I might as well just buy an original Xbox if I want to play my old games

I should go buy OG xbox games before they raise in price.

No. The way 360 BC works right now on Xbone is that it reads the disc then downloads an Xbone compatible copy to the system(still needs the disc as drm). More than likely will work the same with OG Xbox discs

>>379940781
I dont know how they could have made it easier to understand.
They're all called "Xbox One", its the "Xbox One Family". They said from the get go last year that everything that runs on "Xbox One" will run on all "Xbox One" systems.

>>379940660
Its emulation, there isnt an actual 360 or original Xbox inside the Xbox One.

I'm going to fucking play Half Life 2 in it's most pure form, the OG Xbox version. And there's nothing you can do to stop me.

wow if this is true

this is how fucking post-internet consoles should have worked from day 1: full backwards compatibility with multiplatform support.

it literally maximizes the value of the consoles to offer as large a library as possible

Because it's how the developers intended the games to look. The Xbone backwards compatibility is emulation and not native and could introduce glitches or shitty upscaling.

WE CAN'T LET THEM GET AWAY WITH IT BRO, THIS IS FUCKED UP

So when is the last time you used backwards compatibility on your xbone to play something from a previous era?

>inb4 last night

Wrong. You were blowing your father last night.

>>379941743
Most of the 360 emulation is spot on except reach. Stupid bungie pushed the system to its limit to get particle effects by cheating on how they are generated

True, but that's a sacrifice they had to make when developing their game back when it was a released. Flaws and all, it's a part of the game.

That's an advantage, but it still won't be perfect.
>Ps1 games run fine on ps3. why this would be diferent
PS1 games on PS3 look slightly worse than on native hardware, but it's a solid option. The difference is Sony didn't try to fucking upscale games on PS3.

It's funny and ironic how just a few years ago, people were hammering on Microsoft for acting anti-consumerist, and now Sony's doing the exact same shit and they're getting away with it. Sony having a monopoly was a mistake.

>>379940038
They should add ability to play ps4 disks

>>379943385

I think Nintendo and Sony are fine making new games that sell. Xbox's new games... uuhhh. I guess this is why they need the old library to expand their current one.

I just hope the emulation is better then what it was on the 360. There were a lot of titles that were BC, but were next to unplayable due to the shitty Xbox emulation the 360 had.

They used a shit ton of intersecting plane collision to get vehicle particle damage effects. Other things were a combination of CPU and GPU calculations and not the usual "spark follows curve".

There was a video on the making of Reach that explains what they did. This was also around the same time they were working on Destiny so yeah expect a lot of logos for that if you find the video

Got a physical copy for $15 at a Target not soon after they announced the Backwards Compatibility. Rockstar actually went in and improved the backwards compatibility for it on the Xbone so it runs better than the 360 version, almost no frame drops.

>>379945889
>>379945367
Yeah and you can play every 360 game on the Xbone! Oh wait.

I mean, I expected this since they announced it but still it's amazing

>>379945691
dude you literally got me so hyped for a second there. I thought you said Gunmetal was on steam.

I'm going to ask something, and, when I say this, it'll seem like shitposting but I promise it is genuine

if you have your original xbox discs, you surely have your xbox, and even if you don't, you can get them for literal pennies nowadays... so...what is the point in backwards compatibility, why don't you just... play it on the old console?

am I missing something?

I'm kind of starting to consider buying a Xbone. The nice part of they becoming underdogs because f 2013 failure, is that now it appears that they actually care about the consumers. Damn, have acess to three generations in one console looks like a great eal, specially because I only had a ps2 and then i got stuck on PC until now.

Finally I will play Ninja Gaiden.

How much are they going to charge for the digital version of these original xbox games? Some of those games are stupidly expensive thanks to scalpers so even $20 would be reasonable for games like Stubbs.

This game was...good? I mean when I first heard it was coming out, I lost my fucking mind and preordered it online 8 months in advance. Then the day it came I had actually forgotten it was coming when my mom called me telling me a game came. It took like 5 seconds to register what game could've came, and I almost yelped into the phone I was so excited.

In hindsight, I thought it was really good, but it didn't feel like the Mechwarrior games I fell in love with years before. Also was my first game I ever played on XBLive

Sony would never do this, since FFX and shit is remastered and who the fuck would buy that game twice.

>>379940912
should have ripped your games before you sold them. you should have done that anyway for backups.

No one ever said that. The retard that gave interviews during judges week said "ps1 2 and 3 games look like shit, why would anyone want backwards compat, nobody uses it anyway".

It was a horrible thing to say, almost on par with "we have a system for that, the xbox 360".
