Be cooler still if it was Lollipop Chainsaw.. some OG Xbox announcement would be cool too. I'd like the original Buffy game and a few others.

I’m ok with that. So long as they give it away in the Mixpot.

Every 90+ Metacritic 360 game is now on BC

Great work MS, great legacy support, hopefully this transfers over smoothly to next gen without any hickups.

It'd be great if they had these games on their streaming service too.

Microsoft has done brilliant work to get to this point with their backwards compatibility initiative; I wish that Nintendo and Sony were as supportive of their previously gen systems.

PS3 is a bit of a bastard when it comes to emulation, there's really no excuse for them to not allow me to to play my PS1/PS2 discs though. I can play CDs and DVDs on my Blu-ray player, so why can't it be the same for gaming.

Nintendo's an awkward one, They use different cartridge sizes with each generation, I don't know how 3DS games would work on Switch without a 2nd screen add-on with a cartridge slot.

It's a shame that so much of gaming's history is tied to out of date hardware where as so much music and film is readily available on current platforms (I'm loving the 4K restorations of classic movies by the way).

Since the Xbox One Backward Compatibility program was announced at E3 2015, over half of all Xbox gamers have enjoyed Original Xbox or Xbox 360 games on Xbox One. During that time, the Backward Compatibility catalog we built directly from fan feedback has grown to over 600 titles including entire iconic franchises such as Assassin’s Creed, Gears of War, and Mass Effect.

Four years later, compatibility remains a priority for Xbox, for our community and for developers and their games, and preserving the art form of video games is part of our DNA. After adding more than 600 titles to the Backward Compatibility catalog, we’re now setting our sights on what’s next for the future of compatibility.

We’ve listened closely to community feedback and respect the game libraries you’ve built throughout the last 18 years. That’s why we’re taking our work a step further and announced this week that thousands of games from all four generations will be playable on Project Scarlett. As such, we have now shifted our focus to help make the games you love playing on Xbox One compatible with future Xbox hardware. After this week, we have no plans to add additional Original Xbox or Xbox 360 titles to the catalog on Xbox One, but we’re excited to continue our work on Xbox compatibility across platforms and devices, which remains a top priority.
