I'm quite interested in how they'll handle the DLC for Backward Compatible games.

 

I wonder if they'll string it into the main game, then release the game, or if they'll be a section in the store that has the DLC.

You play the 360 games you already have, I'm guessing you would be able to download the dlc to you XBox One as well

It's safe to say that if Microsoft had started off with something like this and not the always online DRM bull that they were trying to peddle, I would have an X1 over the PS4. Still, it's a good thing that they've decided to go in this direction now and provide this functionality. I'm much more likely the pick up X1 now than I was before E3.

Yeah, MS made really stupid mistakes with DRM and the Kinnect, two now totally defunct initiatives. They tried to be a TV integrated experience and no one buys a video game console to do that. People don't WANT to talk with their TVs or use hand motions to explore menus.

If they had focused on making a gaming console (like PS did) and then just did it better (like rolling out backwards capability) without bloating the price with silly gimmick peripherals, they would be dominating the market.

I agree. Microsoft lost the console war before it even began when Phil Spencer marched onto that stage in 2013 and revealed the Xbox One. The confirmation and subsequent defense of their DRM policy and plan to essentially eradicate the used and rental markets on the Xbox One destroyed all the goodwill they built up with the Xbox 360.

 

That being said, I am an owner of an Xbox One, and I'm happy with all the improvements they've made. Backwards compatibility is big deal, especially as someone who owns a lot of 360 games.

I know Kinect gets a lot of ****, but I like it. Not as a gaming peripheral, but it is a handy tool for navigating the menus.

I'm an Xbox One preview member and have already installed the original Mass Effect to my Xbox One.

The Kinect isn't dead, it's just resting.  Wonderful Kinect beautiful plumage.

I already have a PS4 and a Wii U, but I can honestly say that this (and the Rare Collection) actually makes the XB1 more attractive to me as I don't have a 360. I wouldn't be shocked if I picked up an XB1 some day down the line. I kind of want a redesign of the console first though because I do not have any room for something the size of my old VCR.

 

If they had launched with this and not come out of the gate with DRM. Kinect and that TV stuff, the XB1 would probably be in first place. I think Phil Spencer is doing an excellent job, because now I'm actually interested in the console.

Does it run better than it did on the 360?

Yeah, I would agree with that. The problem is that imo its just not worth it from a monetary perspective.

The only benefit I see is they laid some groundwork, just in case this stuff picks up. I could imagine the future of TV would probably converge with interactive experiences. Seems like the natural thing to do.

Same with Kinect.. same with HoloLens.

But for right now, games are more important. And I'm glad they focused on that at E3, for the most part.

I just don't see the technology getting to the point where it's practical any time in the near future. I hate talking to phone systems that make me talk; I'm the same way about talking to my TV. It's a hassle and I actively avoid doing anything remotely related to it. In concept, I like the idea of motion capture, but MS did a pitiful job in creating uses for it outside their menu.

Yeah, because it was devastating having to PRESS BUTTONS

There is currently a loophole that allows non preview members to download Backwards Compatible games, provided you own them.

I pre-ordered the day one console in 2013 and was a big supporter of the console. However after over a year in Xbox1 purgatory (as I call it) switching HDMI ports constantly (ONE to 360) to play a half descent game and chat with friends NOW you want to give us backwards compatibility; Really!? Should have been part of the console on day one. Microsoft has done nothing but screw the pooch with this console. Integrating the TV with the console isn't a bad Idea however if you have a dedicated gaming room without a cable box it's worthless and the Kinect is still a ways off from being an effective accessory. This was the console that was supposed to close the gap between Console and PC gaming by strengthening their Xbox Live Party platform and concentrating on a gamer community while trying to bring every available game into the fold and they totally fell flat on their face.

I haven't played it so I can't say. I imagine it'll play just as it did on the 360.

I've read that it does. 

"Overall, Mass Effect runs better on the Xbox One. Load times have been reduced by anywhere from four to two seconds, textures load in much faster, transitions between cutscenes and gameplay are smoother, cutscenes tend to play out faster because the game has faster loading and clothing is darker on the Xbox One."
