Re: Xbox One
I am in the process of building a new PC as well. I am buying parts as they go on sale.
My current PC is still decent enough so I have been buying games on PC and havent touched my other systems in a while.
So I have a Switch, Xbox 1 S and a PS4. I want to keep the PS4 for sure because PES plays better on it and it has the Show.
The Switch is just different, so I want to play my Nintendo exclusives as they come out.
However, my Xbox hasnt seen action in FOREVER. Should I get rid of it? I know some games can be played on PC and Xbox, but I would have to get it via Windows Store, right? I prefer steam tbh.PSN: Peji911Comment

Re: Xbox One
You won't find games such as Forza and Gears of war in steam. They will only be in windows store and limited to Windows 10. the Xbox Play Anywhere titles, it only applies to windows store as well.

Re: Xbox One
Is that what they're claiming?
If so, i may buy one for myself so I can still play my beloved MLB2K13.

Re: Xbox One
That's not how BC works. The disc is your license for compatible games, which then lets you play a copy that is downloaded from MS servers. The modifying of the game to allow it to play on the console is why we won't see licensed titles like the NCAA series appear.Comment

Re: Xbox One
Mestevo just corrected/clarified my earlier statement. But what I read before gave me the impression that they were trying to make the machine totally BC as long as you had the disk. Looks like it will just be select games though, but you still need the disk. Or maybe I'm still confused...Unofficial OS Ambassador of "CPU vs. CPU"

Re: Xbox One
No, that makes sense.
Considering the nightmare it may be to get the MLB and MLBPA rights, I doubt we see MLB2K13 on the X.

Re: Xbox One
I think what you're getting confused here is what they mean by BC. I've read that they are saying it's backwards compatible on many levels. The one big thing they are trying to stress is that EVERYTHING that currently plays on the XB1, will also play on the XB1X. Just, better if capable by the developer. So, they were trying to avoid the confusion that it was a new console generation, which traditionally has meant new accessories, new games etc. Like, If you had Madden for the original XB, then bought the 360. You needed to buy Madden again for the 360. Similar to the jump from the 360 to the Xbox one. With the Xbox One, to the One X though, you won't need to do that.
With that being said, the original Xbox, and the Xbox 360 titles that are on the backwards compatibility list can be played on the Xbox One now, and therefore the One X as well when it comes along. You can do this by either having the original disc, or purchasing it from the digital store. It then downloads it from the servers, and you can play it using the onboard emulator (or however they're referring to it) on the One, or One X just as if you were playing it on the 360.
Hope that helps. I think the big thing they were trying to get across (and what may have been causing the confusion) is that the OneX is fully backwards compatible to the current Xbox One, for games, AND accessories. Own madden 18 for the Xb1, and upgrade to the Xb1X this fall? No problem. The Xb1X will just download the upcoming 4k/hdr upgrade for you if you tell it to because you have the TV to use it. Pretty sure that's how that part will work anyways, but I'm not entirely clear there so maybe someone can correct me there if need be. Maybe in the future the disc will have the 4k/hdr Xb1X compatible content with it if the game is released with it. Not sure, again, someone else can maybe clarify that. I dont have a 4k tv yet, so the X isn't on my radar yet, although I may grab one anyways just for the upgrade in performance over the One.
But, bottom line; not every original Xb, or Xb360 game will play on the One X. Only those on the current backwards compatible list. But every Xbox One game will indeed still play on the Xbox One X when it comes due.
Hope that helps.Miami Dolphins - Detroit Red Wings - Toronto Blue Jays - Michigan Wolverines - CANADAComment
