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 here’s Geometry Wars, Super Meat Boy, Viva Piñata 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? I’ll try to answer them or at least point you to the official Xbox One Backwards Compatibility page.
