Xbox 360 Emulation on Xbox One

If this comes to pass I may get the XB1 in future.
Would love to see the GOW series running on it.

seriously though. having access to xbox 360 games could help sell more XB1's. I'd consider it myself m8.
*kidding* before the xbox fans start going off on one
Think it would encourage them to upgrade certainly!!!
Btw you alright mate?
Soz Yeah all good here thanks m8. Just haven't managed to catch u on Steam for a chat. Hope all is good with u and urs
Yeah all good. Not really been on steam a heck of a lot.
Just been flitting between different machines tbh. PS3, Ps Vita and some PC.
Hope all is well on your side?
Won't be around much this week as I'm office based (change of scenery!).
They certainly WOULD have sold a few more units from 360 owners hesitating about the upgrade!!!
The X86 original Xbox software would be a lot easier though and could run some real nice graphical enhancements on top, similar to what Sony are planning with PS1/2 software,
It would most likely have increased take up of the new console too. I never played any old Xbox games on my 360 I'm sure later ones phased out support for them or you required xbox live or something.
No reason they can't do X1 remakes of 360 games - already had it with some, and had similar with the PS3/PS4.
But there is no way on Earth they would ever be given away for free to people who had bought the last gen version...
I always found the game emulation on the 360 to be a pain in that allot of games didn't work at all and quite a few of them that did had glitches that annoyed me so I just kept my Xbox.
If they can get the emulation right then I would like to see most/all 360 games playing on the X1 without issue if not it might be better to not have it at all.
You are right of course, I think it was only around 200 titles that had the necessary software patch to be emulated. But I guess the thing is that the games >>I<< wanted to keep and play again were emulated on the 360, so for me it was a nice bonus.
I'd like to think that MS with the ability to run three OSes at once could facilitate a download of a complete 360 emulator, thus avoiding the need for 360 games to be individually prepared to run on the Xbox One?
