It's for sale, it isn't playable on X1 until the update on the 17th.

Psychonaughts was a 50hz only game on the original PAL Xbox.There were very few PAL games that were 50hz and even fewer still that were borked on an Xbox set to NTSC mode so it's not really something to worry about. We'll find out for sure if Halo 1 gets added.
FYI, you can't install BC games offline because they don't actually install from the disc, or even read anything from the disc at all beyond the ID. The disc is just used as a license, the entire game is downloaded from the server, always
You could never install back compat titles offline on Xbox One. Xbox One games, yes, and it was faster because it wasn't downloading/installing the title updates simultaneously to the game install. Backwards compatible games on Xbox One have always required you to download the full game online, due to the technical nature of how compatibility is achieved on the console. This is the reason back compat games *must* be approved by publishers and why there mustn't be any rights issues, as BC titles on Xbox One are legally considered distinct distributions.You used to be able to install while offline. It was significantly faster than waiting for the download.

If you don't need UHD BDs, I'd get a dirt-cheap One over a One S. Every single One I have ever used has been SILENT, but most ever S has made some noise. As far as BC goes on the Non-X units, you will not get gorgeous graphics, but games will still run better than on legacy hardware, and you'll get minor improvements such as more stable frame-rates and no tearing on some titles, and shorter loads.Looks like One X is floatin at 400-450 used
Man, if I had crazy money Id splurge on a X. The BC is super exciting to me.
One S is around 150-220.. hmm not bad.
How does the S handle BC?
I bet the OG One is dirt cheap... couldn't do it. That box is just ugly.
It's so frustrating. Psychonauts and others are not available in the UK and you can't buy gift cards to get BC games so you can't purchase via the US store. The disc prices are through the roof. Wish MS could sort it out.Psychonaughts was a 50hz only game on the original PAL Xbox.
I don't have my disc so I can't check the differences. I can't buy the digital version either for some reason. Says the offer isn't valid in my region. Maybe it's US only. I need to find that disc.
You get 960p on regular or S for OG Xbox, vsync for all 360 games, no resolution upgrade - you might see performance improvements if the game has an unlocked framerate/doesn't stay at 30ish.Quick question. Do all BC games see performance improvements on the OG XBOX or do they only get them on the X1X?

Same here! I'd buy them in a flash if I could. I thought I actually owned Hunter, but turns out I have the sequel.Dead to Rights is one of those semi-naff games I loved but never expected to see supported, and I'm so sad that I can't purchase that digitally either. :(
I just hope Hunter: The Reckoning doesn't meet the same fate.
Yeah, I've been wondering what happens when you put the PAL disc in, since the PAL digital version is no longer offered. Does it download the NTSC version?It's so frustrating.

I don't have my 360 with me so I can't check but how hard is it to access the US store from a PAL 360? I added $10 to my account to buy Breakdown having forgotten that I can't use account balance to buy OG Xbox games from the browser but I can't remember if switching to another country's store is as trivial on 360 as it is on XB1.
You need to have an us account. Simply changing the console region isn't enough.I don't have my 360 with me so I can't check but how hard is it to access the US store from a PAL 360?

I already told you how buying 360 games from others stores works when we were discussing Virtual On Force!!!
As far as I know it should grab the NTSC version. It grabs something one way or another, which is good but just shows how stupid it is that you can't purchase it digitally!Yeah, I've been wondering what happens when you put the PAL disc in, since the PAL digital version is no longer offered.

Not unless the OG Xbox game allows you to remap buttons in it's options.
I remember reading back when RDR first went BC that the online was broken, something about hackers had really messed it up. Has that been fixed or should I just stay out of it?

Check out the co-op DLC if you're curious to try multiplayer. Should be safe from miscreants.
Luckily, unlike a certain other successful Rockstar online game, it's easy to switch to private without having to inexplicably load the singleplayer first.It's borked, really really bad. I think you can get it working by making a private game, avoiding things.

Oh yeah. But does that work on the standard controller? I always thought that stuff was just for the Elite controller.You can remap the buttons via the Xbox Accessories app and it would apply universally on the Xbox One OS, BC games...etc.
Not until the 17thAnyone know if Morrowind is live? I just bought it from the Xbox Store but can't download it on my X1?
Ah OK - it didn't say "pre-order" or anything (which is normally does) but guess will need to wait another day. I've waited over ten years so I should be able to cope.
You can do it with every controller, but the elite pad has more options (stick configuration, deadzones etc.).Oh yeah. But does that work on the standard controller? I always thought that stuff was just for the Elite controller.
