    Can't wait to start on Infinite, which I've been holding off because I know it's coming to Xbox One.

    Would sure like to get Civilization Revolution as backwards compatible. My wife loves playing the heck out of that game!

    Why not just start it? If you put your saves in cloud storage you can resume where you left off on Xbox One.

    My God promised me "hope and change" over 2000 years ago, how is your god working out?

It's just guaranteed for future titles.I know but, since it was already given for free, and since they're basically the same games (MTG 2013 is the only one I own^^) it would have been cool to have this one instead.

    I will never forget that XOne wasn't supposed to be BC. Or that's what she said, back then...
    To do or not to do. THAT is the question.

They do have to fully test every game to make sure nothing's wrong.

    togethawiistand said:I will never forget that XOne wasn't supposed to be BC. Or that's what she said, back then...Xbox One backwards compatibility is technically impressive. Usually for any kind of emulation of a different processor architecture, you need a computer at least a order of magnitude more powerful than the one you're emulating. That's not the case with the One and 360, so it's amazing BC works so well.

    MustaPastori said:Hairy Cabbage said:If the retail version does work (although id be surprised if it did), i wonder how it will handle the region of the disk. Since Ducktales is NTSC only, it would be interesting to see if this game would play on all Xbox one regions.

    Would probably be interested in importing the game if it did work, although i don't think the disk version will work at all.
    It should work, X1 is basically a region free 360. I've played US Witcher 2 on my X1 without any troubles.
    Can confirm this too. Bought South Park: TSOT for my Xbox One and it downloaded the uncensored copy from the Store despite my region not supporting/selling it.

    Kedrix said:X-COMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!! One of my two most wanted games for BC (other being Skyrim), One would think XCom: Enemy Within can't be too far behind UNLESS...they are going to use it as a pack in for X-Com 2 console announcement (Yes, I realize this is a pipe dream but one can hope.)Exactly. I still play Enemy Within on a regular basis and am holding out hope that I'll be able to play XCOM2 on the Xbox eventually.

    Ssx is now backward compatible.

    There is a Domino's game for the xbox? Wow. I wonder how many that sold.

    Not being sarcastic, though it sounds like I am. I'm genuinely am both surprised and curious. This site says that 2,581 tracked gamers have this game, 70 have completed it (2.71%).

    Because if my friends get online and I want to play with them I have to switch consoles #lazy :P
