improvements Always welcomed

Wow, that was quick. The BC team at MS is really a dedicated group. No doubt if one day we also get the Original Xbox games on it as well, pretty sure adding achievements and improved textures, fps, and resolutions on those games will also be possibly.

Bt the time BC launches November, it should be awesome.

MS got DLC to work, now patches and the final puzzle are multi-disc games to complete the circle. MS is very agile.

Can't wait for the next set of games to release for us preview members!

It's a dang good time to be an Xbox One gamer!!! :D

If they can do that, it'd be awesome. I would be happy if they even tries to get Xbox original titles to work at some point, but I hope they focus on 360 first.

I hope it reduces the frame drops.

Beautiful thing about the Xbox One. It's the all in one best console this generation.

Fanboy's please read carefully, I said all in one. Total package.

Same here. I got over 140 digital games ( a mixture of XBLA and AAA games) nice to know I will soon be able to retire my X360. It has served me well but its 250GB HDD does me no favours. Im also wondering if this new patching ability allows devs to patch in smoother framerates and AA on X360 games.

LOL at the disagrees...

That is really funny...

Yep, they prefer that their consoles do not have backwards compatibility!

They must also prefer Blu-ray players that can't play DVDs or CDs.

Seriously, this is a great feature, it is free, and MS is not redirecting X1 resources away from games to provide it... Why would someone not want this feature then? Please explain...

Immediately thought of the El Dorado zombie dudes in Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune.

Not necessarily a ‘horror’ moment, but I remember feeling really tense and anxious when the Flood were first introduced in the original Halo. I never felt more on edge or nervous in that whole game as that moment. I think it was the whole buildup that something terrible was coming but you didn’t know exactly what.

Another non-horror game that had me feeling it was Subnautica. The deep dark depths, and knowing that sea monsters were lurking nearby, had me jumping at every sound.
