Xbox One Backwards Compatibility Testers Forced To Reinstall Games

4.8
Microsoft is bringing in the backwards compatibility program an “upcoming change” that will force players currently testing it to uninstall and reinstall a range of games. We've not been said what's happening on Xbox One but curiously enough the titles involved are all Rare's.


In total the games involved in this upcoming change are just eight, and all will come to retail with the Rare Replay collection, out in August for Xbox One. The games are:

Viva Pinata
Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise
Perfect Dark
Perfect Dark Zero
Kameo: Elements of Power
Jetpac Refuelled
Banjo-Kazooie
Banjo-Tooie

Backwards compatibility is now available only for Preview Program members, and will come to everyone else this fall. Microsoft has stated at E3 2015 that 100 games will be available at the launch of the program, and other 100 will arrive in time for the holidays.

Nationalism The games don't take long to download so its really not that big of a deal.


If your talking about Xbox one its takes for ever 0_o. Well for me it does.
you're thinking of retail X1 games, backwards compat games aren't long. I started downloading Toy. Soldiers and made a pot of coffee when I came back it was done,
