We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
They've done nothing but hint. It's just a matter of "we'll know when they tell us."
MauroNL has said that we should see more titles later this year.
PGR never gonna happen. Car licenses are way expired. Anything with a real car, real people/sports teams or licensed music is very very very unlikely. Would cost way way more in money and effort than they could possibly justify.
They were able to bring back Ace Combat 6, which has license planes so there is a chance if they really want it.
They added Forza Horizon but don't sell it in their store. They can also do the same with PGR, those who want to play can find discs with the game.
Exactly. They don't have to sell the game to add BC for it. They can just make it work off of discs.
This isn't entirely the same. When FH1 went BC it was still available for sale digitally. They even made it free with Games with Gold the last month it was available.
I think they have been working on X-Cloud compatibility lately right?
I have a question, don't know if this is the right thread for it, but I will ask anyway.
My Xbox 360 is in another house, used only for Netflix. My Series X is with me. Let's say, I want to play an Xbox 360 Games on my Series X, but someone is watching Netflix on X360.
If I start the X360 game on Series X, am I going to log out someone on X360 who is watching Netflix at that time?

Well, it does. As soon as Xbox 360 goes online (connects to Xbox Live after starting the console), Xbox Series X in BC mode is getting disconnected from Xbox Live Network. Tested with Crysis 2 SP and starting up Xbox 360 console.
Also, when I start Xbox 360 game through BC, if Xbox 360 was connected on the Live, it's disconnecting at that particular moment, closing the apps that are started at that time....
It shouldn't be doing that, based on feedback from Microsoft forums.... Don't know if there are any setting under the account that enables this.

If it's the same profile being signed into at a second location that's also accessing content, I think it's normal to boot the other instance.
It doesn't work only with Xbox 360 BC games. It works with Original Xbox games and Xbox One games. Meaning I can be signed in with the same account from two different adresses. But only if I'm not playing X360 games.
That's because that is three different accounts. You can't be signed into the same one.
Basically under your account each platform has a sub account. That same sub account cannot be on two things at once.
360 BC still follows the same rules as an actual 360 as far as XBL goes, yes. A single profile can only be signed into one 360 at a time, regardless of whether it's a virtual or physical 360. This is unlikely to ever change, because this is how XBL has always worked on 360. I think there might have been similar limitations with GFWL as well.
Documentation on the matter: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/family-online-safety/shared-consoles/concurrent-signin
IIRC it doesn't work this way on X1 and S|X though. You should be able to stream on one console and game on another using the same profile, because the OS and modern XBL are built with that use case in mind.

So true, and i prefer higher texture or better résolution than fps. Older 360 game like blue dragon or lost odyssey, i want them in 4k ! XD
Higher resolution and higher framerates can be achieved at the same time. The BC team are a bunch of wizards, and I expect them to enhance more and more games in the future.
That said, I'm pretty much craving FPS Boost on more games. Last batch of titles came over a month ago, and we've got nothing but silence since then.
I could swear my son and I tested this out, but it has been ages ago, and we were in the same house (with different rooms and setups). Maybe that had something to do with it.
At any rate, I stand corrected.
I agree. Prey at 60 FPS was amazing and I want more.
Quick question, I've never played Fable at the time and I've been going through Fable 2 recently and, well, is it the emulation or did it always feel really bad to control? Moving your character feels like wading through treacle, combat is sluggish and commands feel laggy and the timing based mini games don't have the indicator stop for a long while after you hit the button.
Yeah, that's more or less how the game has always felt. The series was always more revered for it's atmosphere, characters and writing and less for having snappy, responsive gameplay.
Hmm.
I haven't tried it recently if it got updated, but I remember trying to play it when it was first added and I was shocked at how sluggish it felt back then. Like Loxley mentioned, it wasn't known for being "snappy," but it definitely wasn't as "chunky" as when I tried it.
I even took a video clip of it and it's probably easy to just see how bad it feels to control. (I did only play the first little bit before deciding not to go on, maybe it got better?) Actually, I'm Pretty sure I got up to at least a part where I tried a job (like blackmith or bartender) and noped out then, now that I think about it.
Again though, maybe it's been updated so this video clip might be outdated.
Yes it always felt like that and actually felt kind of worse on my 360 even, I'm not sure why it felt so weird. Fable 1 wasn't perfect but felt much better to play to me and is one of my favourite games. The other issue I've ran into was random crashes on fable 2, I didn't finish it on 360 and was confused why it kept crashing when I picked it back up on xbox one, did some searching and was told to play it offline to stop the crashes, that worked and fixed the issue but still not sure why it kept happening.
Thanks for the replies!
Did 3 feel about the same, do you guys know? I was planning on going straight into it after.
I might put it in my 360 and see if it feels any different, I'm quite curious now.

Hell yes.
I played it years back, and I consider it a bit under-rated as far as the series goes. I can't really speak to how well it's aged since then, but I definitely dug it at the time.

If only WB games would list a digital version on the Marketplace to be bought.
Nice! The best part is that you only need one of the discs to download the full game.
Alien Isolation also runs pretty badly on Series X, lots of stuttering:
I let Jason Ronald know about it so hopefully it's a problem than can be fixed through an OS or BC update.
I was wondering about that.. Cool.
And yes, why it's ignored on consoles is trash. The others got re released. And Origins is on sale pc regularly.
Wonder if the Origins console dlc ever goes on sale. Isn't Cold Cold highly regarded?
Ran perfectly for me just a month ago. Is this in regards to the OS update?
It could be, Alien Isolation ran fine for me before the newest OS update.
Seems to be for specific games though not all of them, try testing these out to see if you get the same issues.
I just finished playing this last week and didn't encounter any problems. What did you come across?
No. Mine was running terribly before that. I tried it near lunch and was up to the bit with the female cat fish and the safe and the stuttering was constant. That area ran poorly on the Ine X as well, but seemed far worse on the SX. Might try it again tomorrow to see if anything changed.
Would clearing the MAC address and forcing a restart do that, or do I need to hold down the power button? Genuinely can't remember how to clear the cache anymore.
Looks like you need to hold down the power button:
