Official Xbox Backwards Compatibility Thread

I didn't see the old thread we had before the board was rebooted so I figured I'd start a new one. Three more games were added to B.C. this week,

Dante's Inferno which was also added to EA Access,

Silent Hill HD remaster

And Silent Hill Homecoming

I'm happy MS is still supporting B.C. They need to add The Saboteur and Ninja Gaiden 2 soon, though.

Cant wait to boot up Silent Hill HD!

 

*takes off rose colored glasses. Stomps on them*

Would you happen to know why with the Silent Hill HD collection why the first game was never included or HD remastered? I have always wondered.

I dont really know. It bugs me too because imo it was thebest one. SH2 was good but its really just the monstersthat people remember. The underlying story was kinda shit.

Word was much of the code for SH 2 and 3 was lost. Maybe more was lost for the first game. 

 

They have the code for the first one, but it would take a total ground up remake to make it bearable (something that Konami should really do whilst the general populace cares about horror games). 

 

The final build code was indeed lost and so that was the reasoning behind the poor update for 2 (3 from what I remember reading, was OK).  It's trash though that modders can take the PC build and make it look good, but a company of paid professionals can't.  Then again, Konami as a company are pricks and I'd love for them to die a death.

It's like this mod that changes RE4's textures from poop soup to something nice!

The install for Blacklist is almost 18 GB on the X.

 

I was curious about this because the game for the 360 had the additional disc with the "HD" textures if you wanted to install them. I'm guessing the XBO version includes them by default? I'm at about 20% so I'll boot it up when it's done and give it a look.

I too hope NG2, and NG3 Razors Edge gets added, as NG Black is one of my alltime favorite games and looks awesome running on the X1X.

If I may pause this here for a moment...how the hell do they let this happen for any reason whatsoever?!

They added it. Might have to do a search for it.

Looks like they finally updated it. I checked Tue and Wed and it did not have a purchase option through the store, and I could only find it by using search. It was not listed in the backwards compatible games section. Neither were there Tue, but Conviction was there Wed.

It's not a BC title but it's one that got Xbox One X enhanced. Battlefield 1 got the X treatment and it's about damn time. I believe the regular Xbox One version ran at about 720p 60fps. Now on the X it's dynamic resolution up to 4k. According to digital foundry online MP stays usually 90-100% of the time at 4k. This was the ugliest game that I was currently playing and so glad they finally gave it a make over.

 

 

Looking forward to Battlefield V!

Why is all the things TomCat said about the 1x coming true?  He didnt know what he was talking about

 

 

TomCat, you take back right now what you said about TomCat.  I am actually a personal friend of TomCat, we have lunch every week at the Tim Hortons on Transit Road in Depew.  Some times TomCat pays, sometimes BuckFly pays.  TomCat knows what he is talking about and TomCat knows about the Xbox One X.

 

SO F*** you TomCat, I got your back forever brother!  

 

 

Edit:  How meta (if I have any clue about what that word means, which I likely don't) that when I wrote the above I never once considered my avatar picture, which...

 

...wait for it.

 

...wait for it.

 

...in the back ground has the Tim Hortons on Transit Road in Depew.

TC, honestly, other than the exclusives, which we know will eventually come with the new studios, I am quite pleased with everything Phil and MSG has been doing for the last year or so.
