Xbox One backwards compatibility with Xbox 360 Games

4.5
Xbox Phil Spencer said the firm will be showing “the greatest line-up of games” for Xbox One. He then dropped the biggest news ever: backwards compatibility for Xbox 360 games on Xbox One.

Digital titles will show up in the dashboard today, and retail disc will work as well. One of the first titles shown was Mass Effect, and third-party developers will just have to allow the option, as no work is involved in the capability.

CM_Punk_BITW hopefully they allow us to play the older cods so we can all play cod4 again without cheaters and without the exo shit *_*


briefly watching that video posted, I think CoD4 would play on the existing 360 servers, meaning technically there would still be a chance of getting into modded lobbies. However if the developers were to allow backwards compatibility, the servers would become more populated and the odds of getting into one of those lobbies would be even smaller than they currently are.
