Xbox No Longer Supporting Backwards Compatibility

news.xbox.com/en-us/2019/06/10/e3-2019-whats-next-xbox-backward-compatibility/#aDhb2b3oGRWkzept.99

They're no longer adding new backwards compatible games to the xbone. It's done. No more, they're finished with backwards compatibility. What a crock of shit.

This is a bunch of bait, Xbox One isnt getting anymore BC, but Scarlett is if you watched Phil spencer's interview

trustedreviews.com/news/existing-games-will-work-project-scarlett-includes-digital-3844470

>they're gonna stop doing something they didn't need to do in the first place!
fuck off, backwards compatibility used to be standard practice and sony got ripped to shreds for not having it this generation (although nintendo conveniently got a free pass).

Probably because they literally announced their next console this week

That's 18 months of no more backwards compatible shit when that was their ENTIRE platform and the only fucking thing they had over sony (and they made damn sure to lord it over sony) for the last 3 years.

The article OP posted says that too

Because all back compat work is shifting to scarlett

>King Kong
>Asura's Wrath

That's absolutely phenomenal

They did all the ones worth making BC anyways

This desu. Theyre shoving all teams into the next bone. They even pushed halo to next holiday so they can pull a "breath of the wild"

Attached: 1559540229994.jpg (905x786, 49K)

So, how many OG Xbox games did they brought back? Seems like they stopped after the first batch.

Are the backwards comparable games not backwards comparable anymore? No? So what's your point, faggot? I doubt ps4 is going to be getting backwards comparability in the next 18 months. Xbox still has that over playstation, they have for the last 3 years.

It's highly unlikely they're putting it on hold indefinitely. "Never say never" as one of the lead architects of the program said on Twitter. Once Scarlett is out with its hopefully flawless XBO BC, you'll likely see them restart the program.

39

They never fucking added lollipop chainsaw

>no Nier

One of the few games I really wanted-

Because if they're not adding anything new to it there's literally no reason for anyone to buy an xbone for the next 18 months. Including this upcoming holiday season. They just handed that shit right the fuck over to sony.

A fair number. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_backward_compatible_games_for_Xbox_One The original Xbox list is shorter than I'd like, but to their credit they added all four original Xbox Splinter Cell games to BC today.

Wait, so Xbox Two will be able to play every single Xbox game and not just half of the library?
Good shit.

Honestly though, what are we missing?
All I got is:

- Jet Set Radio Future
- Tales of Vesperia (if you hate enhanced ports)

>39
41, actually.

No, they insinuate there that it will but in reality it will probably just have the current xbone BC list available to it.
AKA jack fucking shit, and they're now not adding any more games to it.

Isn't Xbone BC their own home-coded emulator for both Xbox and 360? Why don't they support it alongside the Scarlett? They lose nothing and just gain more support, it seems pretty ridiculous to just drop it immediately and then only let the next console get newer games when they could easily just make the newer system do more than the Xbones can.

It's more than I expected. Still, I don't think absolutely all of the gems that are stuck on Xbox Original have been made compatible.

you think these companies are just saying "Yeah give our game away for free" without compensation?
user, please.

I don't really mind, i got 4 of the games i wanted the most (splinter cell saga) and the last game i wanted was Max Payne 3 but whatever, i'm sure they will keep adding more games after Scarlet is out.

>Far Cry Classic
>Far Cry Instincts Predator
You can now play every single Far Cry game on Xbox One. That's pretty cool. Granted, Far Cry Classic is a bit of a so-so remaster with all the physics gutted and stuff, but XBO will fix the performance issues the original had.

You can also play Crysis 1/2/3 on XBO. Shame they were never X enhanced.

There's literally no disk drive in the Switch, why wouldn't they get a free pass?
What they should've done, though, is if someone bought a digital copy of a game on the Wii U and it got a "deluxe" release on the Switch, they'd get a free copy. But all that is unrealistic, considering it's Nintendo.

Who gives a shit if MS paid for it? They paid for it whether or not I play it. Me downloading it doesn't give a cent to either company

It was but the amount of people asking for it confuses me

Yeah, but then you had games like Weapon of Choice, Artoon, Carnivale's Circus, youtube.com/watch?v=Uo3eg1ws7Sc, both of the Biscuit Romp games, Cthulhu Saves the World, Penny Arcade episode 3, and Protect the Princess. The good games were pretty great but you had to really trudge through the garbage.

0 games that won't also be on ps4, yes. AKA 0 reason to get an xbone
user ms is blowing their brains out with this stupid decision, why are you defending it?

Because not having a disk drive is retarded to begin with.

>Battlefield 2: Modern Combat
Did they port BFBC or BC2?

OP you're a special kind of retard

Weak excuse. Cucklett uses the same architecture so it doesn't in particular need any separate work unless the rumors are true and it's dogshit.

More likely is that MS ran out of games they were allowed to tinker with.

>Skate 2
Why would you want that shit when you have the flawless Skate 3?

They've been pushing this BC stuff for a couple years now, I'd bet that the only reason why they're stopping putting resources into emulating each game individually would be because they're putting native BC into the Scarlett. But we'll have to wait until next year to find out for sure.

Syndicate is a cult game. Absolutely kino cyberpunk atmosphere and top notch gunplay.

Too Human is a weird game that has as Nier-like fanbase.

King Kong is considered one of the greatest licensed games of all time. However, their choice to use the 360 version instead of an older version is a bit eyebrow raising. The 360 version was a remaster released a year later with some contentious art style changes and it's generally buggier.

I own both XboneX and PS4
XboneX is easily superior, it's not even close

why couldn't they make it apply to games you bought digitally like microsoft did?
oh right, it's because then they couldn't sell you $60 wii u ports and they'd have to make new games instead.

Wanted mortal kombat 9. Aside from that and some obscure OG xbox games I'm content

>noooooooooo they stopped doing that thing for free that nobody else has done
Yes it sucks but I'm glad they at least did it, even if it was out of desperation because they were so far behind PS4.

Look at all those multiplats.

>playing multiplats on consoles
>playing fuckinf fallout on consoles

>Sonic 06 isn't backwards compatible
FUCK.

is the rest of this soundtrack good? is the game worth playing more importantly?

did you like the game in that pic

But they did bring the games. Show me where exactly they said they were bringing the exclusives, like you are implying.

I'm more focused on the sudden expansion pack for classic Battlefront 2

They put Skate 1

Isn't Flight Simulator, Age of Empires 4, and stuff like that coming next year? Also, we know they're making a new Perfect Dark but we've seen no sign of it. MS are holding shit back.

Damn, really considering an boneX now, but I'm gonna wait and see if the next gen has native backwards compatibility

The team is hilariously small.like under 20 guys small

Yeah... yeah... atleast you didn't use a racial slur.

I think the club music is by far the best track, but the soundtrack is overall solid. Syndicate 2012 is basically a hybrid of FEAR and Riddick and is mechanically something of a prototype for Wolfenstein: TNO. I think it's worth playing. People just hated it because it was a 6 hour long linear FPS game in a market where everyone wanted open world and stuff. Also the bloom effects are terrible. They can be modded out on PC, but consoles are stuck.

What games do you want to be backwards compatible, and what games do you want to be X enhanced?
I want 007 Nightfire for backwards compatibility and Conker Live and Reloaded for X enhanced.

>look ma! I post it again!

Next console just be backward compatibility.
This generation consoles is over, no reason to keep making emulation of the xbox when you can just make a true backward compatibility on the xbox scarlet.

It's because they are saving dev resources for the next xbox then they will return to do back compat for Scarlett and everything before it

Are you dense or a Snoy shitposter?

I still have 70 360 games that aren't bc

guess I'll keep my 360 forever

Stupid fuckers already pushed that line, and Xcucks will swallow it up again.

Wait a minute. We know that a new Perfect Dark is in development. What's your explanation for MS not revealing it at E3?

>trusting microsoft to make pro-consumer decisions
they only added bc to the xbone because they were desperate for a pr win. next gen is a new slate, microsoft will get greedy and screw their customers over with no bc.

Yeah no shit dude, but they have put a lot of resources into doing back compat that they are not going to throw it away.

>they only added bc to the xbone because they were desperate for a pr win
Microsoft have been supporting Backwards Compatibility since Windows 3.1 where they had a division painstakingly reverse engineering games to figure out why they crashed, and writing workaround code that silently triggered in the background. Backwards compatiblity is in MS's DNA. It's what set them apart from Apple so starkly.

You stupid subhuman Sony nigger, Microsoft already confirmed Scarlett will be bc with all 4 Xbox generations.

What's wrong with multiplats? The best games are always multiplats (think Witcher 3, REmake2 or RDR2 to name a few)
I could say the same about you
>hurr dur playing multiplats on PC lmao
>playing Fallout on a 27" screen HAHAHA

They were also the first console to allow custom gamerpics and a refund system.

Software emulation is a complete joke. It should be false advertising to declare that's "Backwards Compatible".

I remember UT3 had mouse and keyboard support as well as mod support and the free expansion. Those were the good times, I moded the shit out of it and play with mkb on the PS3.

Well. They will work for next gen, so maybe that one is easier to get all games working.
Kind of sucks that there are still plenty of gems missing.
The Splinter Cells are cool, but outside DA there isnt much point on playing them on console. Unreal is the most unique game there that isnt easily available now, the rest is good but all on PC too.

Lol, PC has near perfect BC

Multiplats only count when they're definitive versions. But these days those are on the PC in 99% of cases.

Dont expect the children that frequent this site to know this.

Piracy is immoral

Dank meme, reddit

I guess but all the based PC games you can also play on the console from couch with a comfy controller and not have to worry about all the PC dogshit and NSA spyware

I never owned an xboxhuge and Im glad for the opportunity to try out the games I missed out on :)

I actually played Fallout last on a 32" ultrawide. But my Computer is also connected to my 65" OLED if that makes you happy.
Xbone IS the best console this gen.but you are still retarded for playing multiplats on it.

I think its been bc for like a year now.

Oblivions PC controls

I actually dont understand the big deal. Why would you have a huge HUEG library if you didnt also own a HUEG? It is cool for emulation I guess for games you don't own. But otherwise I dont care about backwards compatibility.

i have a huge backlog of xbox and 360 games, disc and digital. with 3 more added today, all but 4 of them were added to BC. the idea that they didnt do enough is ridiculous.

Never trust american companies

There are fan patches for all the Splinter Cell games to fix their issues on modern PCs. Regardless, the PC vs Xbox pissing contest is annoying. People should be happy that non-PC gamers are now in a position where they can share in these classic games.

They want you to buy the new console. When the 360 came out all support for the old Xbox dried up just like the 350 was abandoned when the Xbone was in the late stage of development.

That's not true and you know it. I can't play Simcoaster without installing windows xp.

>Xbox 360 had a few good back compat titles but they didn't optmize it so it ran like shit
Why are you lying?

>As a final thank you to the community, we are bringing Too Human to the Backward Compatibility catalog and are making it available digitally to everyone for free.

pretty sure a federal judge banned that game from existing along with xmen destiny.

never ever

Indies are where I found out about Streets of Fury.

how is it a pissing contest if the game on Xbox is different to the one released on PC?

It's a fucking tablet you mong, it's smaller than most disc drives to begin with

safedisc effects some old games, but there have been cracked for them since forever

I mean if you actually try to play it with the CD, that's pretty wholesome, going old school

It's a pissing contest when people get all snarky about "Who cares about Game X if it's already on PC?"

If I understand it correctly the Xbox/360 library has grown to a large enough size that they now want to move to prepping the current Xbone games to be playable on the Scarlet. That seems fine, they still have all the Xbox/360 games they've done in their back pocket so they can say those games will be playable on the Scarlet alongside the current gen games.

They'll build a big enough library of Xbone games so that when scarlet launches you'll have access to many of your current games. There's no way in hell MCC and Halo 5 aren't playable day one on Scarlet alongside Halo Infinite. They spent so much time and effort on the Xbox/360 games its highly unlikely we're seeing the end of them coming to BC forever. Probably just until Xbone has a large enough impact for when Scarlet drops.

Beyond Phil taking on the approach of showing games at e3 that will launch within the next year, I read that he wants to have a new first party game every for months on the Scarlet. Odds are, hopefully anyhow, that next year alongside scarlet he reveals everything that the 1st party studios have been doing.

Fuck that would have been a good one.
At least the PC mod of Generations exists

I bought a bunch of $2.50 copies of Too Human thinking it would be worth something after Epic destroyed them.

Jokes on me I guess.

They're gonna continue in the future but only on scarlett they're just stopping xbox one support

Atari 7200 is BC with Atari 2600; as well as Genesis has Master System parts in it that just need a cartridge adapter to work.

This is still kind of shitty. They kept updating the 360's original xbox support, including todays additions.

we aren't cyclops, user

Of course, they will bundle all that shit into a subscription.

I'm lucky to have P4AU, SC5Part2, Sonic 06 (lucky?), Heroes, & JSRF. Was actually hoping that Nier was gonna get a BC update or a remaster, would have been great.

If PSO2 does well, we might see support for PSU

Oh I understand that, it's more of a question of "You guys have this setup where it'll be usable on both systems but you're stopping support of it on one system while continuing it on the other when there's not much required of you to provide support. Why?"
As far as I understand the systems (Xbone and Scarlett) are using the same codebase/emulators to do this BC, it's just that they're cutting support for the Xbone but continuing everything from where they're already at on the Scarlett (Meaning it retains all the work they've done on the Xbone and then adds to it). They already spend their time having separate profiles for Xbone, S, and X, I don't understand why you don't just have a profile for the Scarlett's power as well and then just push it to all of the systems since the only thing you're doing is improving the framerate and graphical fidelity of these games.

Also, Xbone BC tweaking for Scarlett shouldn't be that tough, aren't modern consoles all working on x86 now which makes it much easier to get things going?

its a cost compared to labor thing they need to get a 100% compatibility rate with the scarlett for OG, 360 and xbox one titles which will be a difficult feat for any company but they only got a year in a half to look over a few thousand titles and test/debug so they need every hand on deck

Not to mention scarlett is the new console and they want to sell as many as possible so they're gonna primarily add BC to that instead so people on the older xbox one will be tempted to move to the newer console

I think you misunderstood me. None of those are bc, what do you mean lucky to have?

Might get a bone at some point if only just for the Splinter Cell games.

>You actually want to play multiplats on pc for better fucking framerate retard
With that mindset, do you mock fellow PC gamers that have a lesser performing rig than yours?

None of those are BC and even if PSU was made bc its online was shut down years ago when og xbl shutdown and it won't be revived just for one game

I wish I can play all the old games on my PC. MS is doing so much stuff right releasing games other then the Windows store, but I guess they need at least some justification selling the new console.

You know what would be based af. Phil spencer said, after the pso2 announcement, phantasy star has a long history with xbox. Imagine if he turned on the servers for pso and psu. You would have all three on the scarlett. PS = phil spencer = phantasy star = based

I have the discs
True, very true

Well in theory Xbox and 360 should transfer over just fine because they are basically virtual machines.
Xbone stuff could possibly be trickier because they might not be able to virtual machine that too well, so they have to make sure the CPU/GPU programming transfers 1 to 1 or better to the new hardware since there's going to be some architecture differences. (But nowhere near as radical as in previous generations)

Oh MY DICK, all those Splinter Cells.

No idea about the x86 thing. But I'd guess that the Xbox/360 BC additions are on hold so that all resources go to the Scarlet for the biggest launch they could possibly do in terms of past gen games at launch. They've built up the OG/360 library big enough where they probably feel like they can safely say "hey, we're stopping our BC program for the Bone and moving to gearing up the BC for the Scarlet when it launches so you have a lot of shit you can play at launch."

They more then likely just want all hands on deck to start getting the most needed Xbone titles on Scarlet since the BC team is just a small group of guys and not a larger segment of the whole Xbox group. Once Scarlet launches and they start doing post-launch BC updates I wouldn't be surprised if more Xbox/360 games come to the bone as well - if the emulation on Scarlet is the same as Xbone that is.

Xbox One should play natively, same architecture etc.

It would be amazing, but I imagine PSO2 would have to do gangbusters for it to happen.

>Microsoft actually acknowledging Too Human
>Even better they make it BC and free
>That small shred of hope that it gets a sequel/reboot

Easily one of my favorite 360 games IDGAF what anyone says. Check it out if you haven't played it.

You can pick up an Xbone S for real cheap these days, man, it's not a bad console.

They really need to hire more for the BC Team, this is a feature they have that no one else does.

PSO2's biggest problem is Gold is required to play

Who has an xbox but no gold? Its either on sale for $40 or free with bing rewards

Nintendo got a free pass because they changed their format for games. Its not very good how they got rid of it but its not like ps4 which has no reason not to allow backwards compatibility.

They're probably making it free because they're prohibited from making any money from it

cope

You can get that game pass ultimate which includes gold and a fuckton of games on rotation, how the fuck are you complaining

I don’t see the issue, Xbone is coming to a close.

It’s like asking Microsoft to continue supporting Vista.

Holy shit does this mean there's now a way to paly Asura's Wrath in more than 20 frames?

>Too Human
Fucking wat
Why did they spend time adding THAT of all things?

>fully open world with no loading transitions

that's why

yeah i do actually

I haven't opened my free Taco Bell Xbone X since I got it last year. Maybe now's the time. I know next to nothing about Xbox. Redpill me on it.

"Youre autistic to care what platform people play games." - some autist on a kite flying forum

supposedly

Oh missed that part, but it is returning on the Xbox Scarlett I hope Halo CE and Halo 2 are the first games added and Halo 4 gets a 4k update putting it in line with the rest of the games same goes for Halo CE and Halo 2.

Honestly, when I was playing these games, I think the best way to remaster them is by emulating the look of water color or something along those lines

My HUEG doesn't have HDMI support, if the X had true backwards comparability I would have gotten rid of my HUEG a long time ago.

>never got Blinx 2 despite getting Blinx 1
Thanks for FUCKING NOTHING MIcroshit

Any games you own here is free to download and play. Games with Gold gives free games every month.

>I don’t see the issue, Xbone is coming to a close.
Imagine if the Game Machine 2 had backwards compatibility for a bunch of Game Machine 1's games but they're being rolled out slowly. Game Machine 3 is announced and it's on the same architecture as GM2 so it will simply use what GM2 had already done with GM1 BC and continue adding onto that list. Then they announce GM2 is ending support for new GM1 BC games despite still being for sale and active at the same time during the transition period and it taking no effort to just slap the compatibility profile from GM2 in their equation instead of GM3's. Keep in mind that in this instance they would be testing the game to see if it works with GM3's extra horsepower and then sizing it down.

Again, as it is all the new features of the BC are just higher framerates and better graphical fidelity, so if Scarlett can do 8K 120 FPS and X can do 4K 60 FPS why not push it to both systems? You already have proof it works in higher stress situations without an issue so why stop it when I sincerely doubt it takes them more than an hour to get the games functioning Xbox family-wide in more than a day once they get one side finished. Hell, this would even make sense further down the line, let's say the Xbox 5 comes out and is still using the same architecture and BC emulation for the Xbox and 360, wouldn't it make sense to still push BC games to the Xbone?

>free

I should add, that means physical disks too.

>Super monkey ball deluxe never made it in
Shame. Does anyone know a way to play some good monkey ball without giving my hope to the hamster game being developed by autists that will probably never come out?

>Xbox Live will be free trust me
>Scarlett games will be forwards compatible trust me

Marble it up, sequel to marble blast ultra, is supposedly coming to consoles soon. I wish smbd made the cut to

Gold? Yeah, "Free". It's only half true though, OG Xbox & 360 are permanently free while Xbone is only when subbed.

FUCK YOU LARRY

Do they give you OG Xbox games with Gold?

Marble It Up's been on Switch for a while now, unless you meant on other systems.

Yes they do, which means they work on 360 too

Where are the OG Xbox games? Help me out.

I don't know if I'm thinking into it too much or if this post is in reference to curb your enthusiasm

Stuff released in Games with Gold
Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction
Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
Star Wars Republic Commando
Star Wars: Battlefront II

Will likely be in rotation now that things have paused in BC efforts

He’s not
t. Beat ogxbox Double Agent on 360 with dips to single digits
Also SH4 had an annoying bug with black lines on characters’ faces

Because the scarlett is coming out and they are going to add the games to that console instead you retarded sack of shit

If you couldn't see this intentional move coming, I don't know what to tell you.

They're probably spending that 18 months working on BC stuff for Scarlett, I'm not seeing an issue here.

user, nobody actually buys an xbone for BC. It's a feature that gets talked about often online but normal consumers are barely aware exists.

Calm down.

No jsrf is a real bummer

Is the new Metro any good?
