Xbox One Summer Sale 2015 USA, United Kingdom games
And those fans were given some good news today when, speaking on Twitter, Criterion confirmed that they are in talks of making Burnout Paradise playable on the Xbox One via its Xbox 360 backwards compatibility.
At the E3 2015 conference held these days in Los Angeles, Phil Spencer announced that starting this winter you can use the Xbox 360 game discs on Xbox One. If so, are you likely to pop the game back in if it gets Xbox One compatibility?
Aside from that, some Xbox Live Arcade and indie games will also go on sale, the report added. They won’t be able to work.
This is the issue with introducing backward compatibility this late in the game.
Hopefully, more noticeable changes might be expected in the upcoming updates, but till then the patch will have to do for gamers who are excited for the Windows 10 arrival on the console along with all the other connectivity features it will bring in.
Xbox One consoles are displayed on stage before being handed out during a midnight launch event in New York November 21, 2013. It remains to see if Sony will ever implement something similar.
Another barrier Microsoft has to face is get permission from the publisher to make a specific game backwards compatible to the Xbox One.
Just over 100 Xbox 360 games will be made available on Xbox One later this year as Microsoft begins rolling out the new feature. Judging by this “one at a time” process it may be a good long while until the library is big or deep enough to really feel like an asset.
