E3 2015: Here’s how Xbox 360 games work on Xbox One

We’re in the Xbox Preview Program so we got to give the Xbox 360 Backwards Compatibility a shot just a day after the big announcement at E3. I grabbed all my capture gear last night and set out to cover how the feature works and what it does. So hereโ€™s Geometry Wars, Super Meat Boy, Viva Piรฑata and A Kingdom for Keflings.

One thing I did forget to mention in the video is that the Xbox One doesn’t recognize saved games on a USB stick. You’ll have to make sure any saves you want to use are in your cloud storage first. Any other questions? Iโ€™ll try to answer them or at least point you to the official Xbox One Backwards Compatibility page.
