Interesting video here, sounds very much like they've virtualised a 360 making a 360 game roll out for XB1 similar to an App-V package. If that's the case then they might just be able to keep up with the 'hundreds more every month' brag on the BC web page. Heck you wouldn't even need a particularly large team to do it.

Gracias.

Interesting that this coincides with the 360 emulator for the PC coming on leaps and bounds.

Wonder if they had a leak.

As a PC / PS3 user it doesn't effect me, but if I was more console focused it would make me buy an XBOX one feeling that there was a greater feeling of permanence to the MS ecosystem.

@BOFH_UK I think you're probably onto something here. I reckon over the next five years or so MS will be transitioning the Xbox brand away from a straight-up piece of hardware, to something more of a service. Don't get me wrong, I think there'll be a successor console to the Xbox One, but increasingly I think we'll see Xbox-branded games crop up on PCs, phones, tablets, etc.

It's like how they say Windows 10 is their "last" Windows because from now on it's supposed to receive annual updates and adjustments and whatnot. Xbox will be like that, a service that improves constantly and is available on a variety of hardware platforms, but all linked and controlled by Windows.

Unless I'm totally wrong, of course ;-)

Yes, as long as they are supported on X1.

@Britesparc

Sounds wise, so they'll probably cock it up.

Currently playing VP:TiP.

Sadly it couldn't find my save but I don't mind starting over again to much.

VP:TIP = Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise. I loved VP so I'm seeing if I can find my old copy.

I never played that one, only the first. Absolutely loved that one. The only niggle was the play area felt too small.
I'll have to google the second one now to see what it was about.

@Baihu1983

No idea with Mass Effect as it doesn't have my saves. Hopefully they all are packaged with DLC

Also game dvr with 360 games

Can someone try and take a screenshot of a 360 game? I wonder how they look.

Has anyone downloaded kameo yet?

I've got the classics version on disc but when I put the disc in, it won't install.

Classic version doesn't work yet for what ever reason?

No idea. I am slightly encouraged by people saying the digital version hasn't appeared yet. Maybe it will in the next day or so.

Just played banjo kazooie. Fantastic stuff. Nice emulation going on there.

Does anyone know how I get the 360 guide up?

I don't know. They appear to the right on my games and apps under the ready to install section
