Xbox One Backwards Compatibility Won’t Cover Full 360 Games Library

4.6
Revealing backwards compatibility on Xbox One for Xbox 360 games was an absurdly juicy feature for Microsoft to just casually throw out at E3 this year. Speaking to Official Xbox Magazine, Microsoft's corporate vice president Kudo Tsunoda explains the next steps and why the full back catalogue won't be appearing just yet.

"So, we’ll start with 100 titles this autumn, and we’ll be adding titles as time goes by," he says. "At some point we’re going to need to get – obviously - the permission of the owners of the content, the publishers and the developers. So 100% is always a hard thing to achieve in anything."

Black Ops 2 is currently the most wanted Xbox One game via backwards compatibility and Microsoft isn't revealing which ones it's going after but is promising bigger and better. "There’s a possibility for some outliers, but we’re really going to work on getting the biggest catalogue of games on any platform onto Xbox One via not only our exclusive blockbuster titles that we’re delivering this fall, [but also] our indie games plus backward compatibility. Again, that’s just enormous value for gamers."

I doubt they will. Only games I wanted compatible were Gears of War and they are, so I'm happy.
