I'm still impressed by how good they've done with this. The library they're going to have for the next Xbox is going to be insane. Just looking over my shelf, I've still got some hidden gems and silly choices I'd like to see go BC. My wish list for 2019 (putting in spoilers so nobody freaks out thinking these ARE being added to BC, lol)

Just a rumor for now, but there has been talk (nothing official, but the usual "a guy at the company told me" thing) that MK9 will be made BC in the weeks leading up to MK11's release.
That's it for the year. See you in a few weeks.

They need permission from the publishers. Some publishers, for whatever reason, don't want their games back compatible. Others may have issues with licensing (be it the property the game is based on, music in the game, or whatever).

Pretty disappointing. They've done a decent job of getting a lot of games on there, but there's still a ton to go. And don't even get me started on how god-awful the original Xbox support has been.
I'll still update the list occasionally but it's not going to be current all the time.

Yeah, I really thought they would have added something this week considering the giant BC sale and all. But that looks like a big nope.

They have announced that they're done with back compatibility. Incredibly fucking disappointing.

It's going to continue on the next console in some form (and all X1 games will work on the next console), but what that exactly means has not been made clear.
I guess my work here is done.

Sure, there are lots of games, but there are a lot more that didn't make it over that should have. Their support of the original Xbox has been a joke.
Anyway, picked up the last copy of Unreal Championship 2 from my local used game place. Four bucks. Looks like it's up on the store now, along with the rest of the new stuff.

Yeah, I'm honestly shocked we never got Max Payne 3. That really feels like a big one.

Anyone else is able to get Scramble from their previous purchase history? That one is not working for me, shows full price on the store and it is not displayed on my Ready To Install list
