Did they add both dead island games yet because there both on sale right now for 3 each

Well now they just announced the remake combo package coming to X1, so that means it's really unlikely you'll be seeing the older games BC anytime soon. Also explains why they just went on sale, trying to milk a few more sales before making this announcement.

I'm expecting a port on the level of either Dishonored or Darksiders II, where it's not going to be a huge endorsement to pick them up on X1.   I could certainly be surprised and have them get it right where it's a worthwhile port, though I'm keeping expectations low.

The other remasters they have under their belt are SRIV and the Metro Redux games, so that's something.

Metro was good, SRIV still has some issues with at least a glitched achievement.

 

Maybe it won't be half-assed, it'll be a whole ass' worth.

Some sites reporting they've spotted Crackdown, Crackdown 2, Mass Effect 3 and Bomberman Live. Can't confirm for myself yet if this is accurate.

 

Seriously, ME3 but not 2? I finally hit the backlog and JUST started playing ME2 last week after accepting the idea that 2 and 3 wouldn't be coming anytime soon so I may as well play on the 360. Whatever. I kinda want to go back and mess around with Crackdown.

 

Also, they're making it so you can buy 360 games that are BC via the XBone dashboard. Update is out for preview members already.

I haven't confirmed this myself (I keep forgetting), but it sounds like if you try to buy a :360: game from your :xb1: console that you cannot use MS credit but have to use an attached credit card or PayPal account instead.

Would anyone be interested in adding disc compilation compatibility for 360BC stuff? I have been testing my discs as BC becomes available, and have most of the compilations (PopCaps, Namco Museum, Qubed, Xbox Live Compilations), most work now but didn't always at launch (took a bit for the Qubed retail disc to allow me to install Lumines Live! and such). Figured I could add my info to the wiki if there's interest!

Left 4 Dead 2, Tekken Tag 2 and a few other titles got "updates". Note that those titles are not available to play that I listed so something is still going on/they are still being worked. I feel like it's going to be Soon™ that we get some big BC titles.... or MS is just gonna drag this out till E3 to show off some big titles like Red Dead, Left 4 Dead etc.

I added a section at the bottom of the OP for this, if you (or anyone else) wants to edit in some info.

Not seeing Crackdown or Bomberman so I'm assuming it's all inaccurate. Could have been someone saw something they weren't supposed to like Red Dead.

Seeing it here. I'll look for more reports?

 

Edit: I've been able to get the icons but I think this is just a means of playing the 360 title then switching to the X1 to "follow" them. Which you can do with a lot of 360 titles. Either way I hope we hear some news soon....

Added what info I could provide on comp discs. I don't personally own PopCap Vol.1 but it should work for Bejeweled 2, Feeding Frenzy and Zuma as well.

 

The Qubed compilation includes a variety of DLC for Lumines on disc, but I didn't notice any DLC in the manage games section when it was installed, however this could be like a few of the other titles where the DLC is included in the base download like Borderlands having all DLC regardless.

 

There's a few other discs out there, so any other info would greatly be appreciated! I was surprised besides the Namco disc, just about all of these worked fine since launch, I'm glad! :D/

Probably not.  I was able to download it and play it a little bit the day it was leaked, but since then every time I tried to start the game it would ask if I own it (which I do).  That just means that XBL locked the game down because it isn't ready for prime time.

 

Also, there is the chance that if you try to play any BC games before they are ready for GA your account could get flagged, so I backed off from downloading the games. before they are ready. :)

Decent update. Alan Wake, Castlevania SOTN, and Pac-Man are now on Major Nelson's list. Will check out SOTN tonight or tomorrow if it's working.

Pac-Man does NOT prompt an install when you put in the Namco Virtual Museum compilation disc, but if it's anything like the last few Namco titles, will probably start working within a week or so!

SOTN works - I got sucked right in for an hour last night.

At one point I was even streaming to my office PC - so I had a PS1 port running on a 360 emulator running on an XBone streaming to my PC. What a world... :-)

Somewhere between 0 - 100%.

Anyone in need of a physical copy of Halo Wars, check Gamestop. In store, it looks like all copies of the platinum hits version were converted to used. I just picked up a copy, complete with unpeeled DLC card for 9.xx after PUR. It was gutted, but looked like Gamestop "new".

May actually check for that, finished it long ago but liked it enough to get back into it. Thanks.

Alan Wake runs better then the 360 counterpart but has insane black crush. Your gonna need to turn the brightness/gamma way up to play it. Hope they are working on a patch! http://neogaf.com/fo...d.php?t=1198395

 

Castlevania SOTN works really well however. 

 

I haven't tried much of Halo Wars but I heard good things.
