I thought that app got pulled. You can play all the games by just going to the website on Edge?
Not bad. Still another 2 months till the year anniversary, should hit close to 300 by then.
Love the feature I just wish there was more bigger games, especially the ones that were announced 10 months ago (Bioshock collection and Skate 3). But I'm sure they will come in due time, it's just a little frustrating being told they're coming then waiting 10+ month.

Wow that's a good number. I hope they keep them coming. I'd like to see Ninja Gaiden black with achievements and 60fps. Although Team ninja lately.
Yeah, it's telling me MS is looking out for its customer base.

It's really cool. Unfortunately I have a big ass backlog of current gen games to go through before I devote time to games I already beat years ago. Still cool to have on tap though.
It's an awesome feeling for games you already own digitally to pop up on your Xbox One with no extra effort required. It's unfortunate that this sort of thing on consoles is an abnormality.
My most wanted ones, the Capcom 2D fighter collections are still missing, but the feature is greatly appreciated. Obviously UMvC3 and Ultra would be nice, but I think we all know the potential roadblocks there.
I really wish they would loosen up the restriction on peripheral games so I could play RB3, but I get how handling the DLC for that one might be a monumental undertaking.
I hope the games will run even better on the Scorpio, but if they got this to run on Windows 10 that would be just as amazing.

I know it's unlikely to happen due to licensing, but I hope we can get backwards compatibility for 50 cent: Blood on the Sand, Goldeneye: Reloaded, and Conan. All titles that will probably never get a PC port, so BC on Xbox One will allow these underrated titles to live on.

Twinsanity tries so hard sometimes.
Which one would that be? I am referring to ones not published by Microsoft Studios. Maybe I should've included AAA as well.
Sorry, but what the hell sort of criteria is that?
Maybe you should have included AAA? It's like you're sitting there thinking to yourself "hmm... yea, I could probably have come up with better ways to invalidate the library".
I just want Catherine....
It's up there for me as well, along with Ninja Gaiden 2 and Radiant Silvergun. I never finished Ilomilo and have been wanting to return to it, so I hope that gets added as well.
I remember seeing ppl here, all the way back in January, saying that MS won't support it much and support is already slowing down.

My most wanted is still PGR4! I'd play that game all the way through again. Best racer of the last gen, IMHO.

The only games that I care about Backwards Compatability are completely and utterly neglected, unfortunately.
I want to play Dance Central 1-3 so bad, but I refuse to buy a Kinect for my 360 when I have a Kinect for my Xbox One. So I'm kind of given the finger. Oh well.
Happy for those who got what they want, though!

It was (excluding Daytona USA of course), up until the original Forza Horizon hit.
It sucks that the XB1 Kinect can't be used for 360 Kinect games. The 360 Kinect had a much stronger lineup (the original Kinect Sports was awesome compared to Rivals).
I'm hoping they manage to address it at some point, like they've recently done with the steering wheels.
Either Xbox needs some exclusives not owned by Microsoft Studios or they need to expand how many studios they currently have. The PS4 just has a larger library of exclusives to choose from. I can name more PS4 games than I can Xbox One games and I've never even touched a Playstation before.
Fuck, what I'm trying to say is that the Xbox needs exclusives that can compete with Playstation's main exclusives like Uncharted and all those games.
Not stealthy enough buddy.

Needing a persistent internet connection every time you want to play (screwed if you go to a friend's house with your machine or if others on the network are streaming).
It's option that you have to be content with, but not nowhere near as good as playing it off your console.
Agree with PGR3 and 4 needing to be available!
Sure the PS4 has a larger set of exclusives... one console was always going to, and PS4 was infinitely more likely due to the Xbox's standing in Japan.
But what I'm asking is... why would you relegate a game for being first party published? Why would Recore count more if it were published by say Capcom instead of Microsoft... it'd still be the same goddamn game... this is just list war nonsense.

I still want Mass Effect to be better optimised. Was the framerate always this bad or is it a bv problem?

Obvious troll is obvious.
Aside from that... This is great news! There are still a few games I'm waiting to see on BC (like Sonic Generations) but I haven't been disappointed so far. This definitely helped me with the decision to have Xbox One as my primary console.

I was about to say that the ultra blu ray support and Alone in the Dark and Deadly Premonition being added to service might be enough to get me to pick up a slim but nevermind.

So you want MS to buy exclusives like they have with Rise of the Tomb Raider or Dead Rising? That's a better solution than MS publishing their own games?

I finally installed Dead Space last week and played through it, for like the 200th time. It was rad, but now I'm pissed that Dead Space 2 isn't available yet. Hurry up fuckers. You got the multi-disc issue licked months ago.
Just installed Halo Reach yesterday, not sure when I'll feel like playing it again.

If Xbox had more deals with 3rd party studios and not rely so much on Microsoft published games then we'd have more games to choose from, or they at least need to acquire more developers under Microsoft Studios. More studios = more games. But that's probably never going to happen since Phil Spencer said they are pretty much done with 3rd-party games.
No it's always good for them to publish their own games but as I mentioned in above in this post you need more studios in order to have more games so yes, either buy 3rd-party exclusives or acquire more studios under Microsoft.
What I'd like to see is for some of these older games (or BC games) to have reboots assuming the developers are still around or if not, other ones would be up for the job.

I'm not sure about the whole list here, but I'll be extremely surprised if we don't see Crackdown 1 and 2 once we get closer to 3. I'm thinking they'll go to Gears of War route and include them for free with the new game.

Works beautifully. Obviously, until the "save" feature is added, the lengthier games are maybe not worth the effort, but once it is...Secret Of Man, Earthbound, Chrono Trigger, Mario RPG etc. For now? Most Rock n' Roll Racing for me.
I have since I gave all of my old 360 games away.

Haven't played Halo since 1. Was thinking about getting the Xbox One S that has Halo 1 through 5 and probably wanted to play Reach, but I heard Reach runs like crap and that's really the only game other than Tales I would care about.

He's talking about PSNow in order to stream games. BC doesn't need a persistent Internet connection on XB1.

In case you're getting confused, the persistent connection was in regards to PSNow (being a streaming service and all). You don't need to be online to play XB1 BC games.
This is besides the point. The poster said 2 games out this month. The other poster, and then you took issue with that value based on other pointless criteria that has nothing to do with the value either game carries. Both Forza Horizon and Recore are made by teams outside on MS, contracted to work on exclusive software... this provides you with more game in comparison to say Turn 10 alone alternating between the Motorsport and Horizon with 2 years between each (and so 4 years between each iteration). They're not "done" with 3rd party games... they're done tying up 3rd party games that would have hit the console regardless (and so aren't actually giving you more to play, only giving other people less). There will be plenty of Recoress, Scalebound, Crackdowns and the like in the future made by 3rd party studios. That's pretty much always been their approach, even back in the day with games like Project Gotham.
If you want to simply say that PS4 has more exclusives that's one thing (a thing that doesn't belong anywhere near this thread though), but to act like an exclusive being published by MS is somehow less of a factor than what would be the same game published by anyone else is just silly.

Great job. A continued effort of greatness.
But my original point was that Microsoft needs third-party deals and then that user mentioned ReCore and Forza which is what started the whole thing in the first place. Anyways, enough of this, the thread is about BC games. I completely skipped last gen so I wouldn't mind giving some of these games a go. I already got RDR. Are there any BC games that have current gen sequels in the works (excluding Gears since 4 comes out soon).
