MS warns against using fake Xbox One backwards compatibility "trick"
Microsoft has already discouraged people from using the code to enable the development features on the Xbox One, but apparently a JPG image has been making the Internet rounds today with a procedure to use that code in a way to get the console to recognize Xbox 360 games. There's just one big problem; the procedure is fake and all it will do is brick an Xbox One console that costs $500.
Microsoft's head of Xbox Live programming Larry Hryb has also weighed in on this issue with his Twitter feed:
"To be clear there is no way to make your Xbox One backwards compatible & performing steps to attempt this could make your console inoperable"
So basically, if you see any claims about a special cheat code to get Xbox 360 games to play on an Xbox One you can safely ignore it.
