Apologies if there is an existing thread about this but since e3 just completed, I think it's a healthy time to start this discussion.
With the addition of the OG Xbox to the Backwards Compatibility Program the Xbox ecosystem just became a lot more valuable.
The bigger news here is that the games moving forward will be forward compatible to new systems when the time comes. No need to buy your favorite games over and over again. (Come to think of it, it's mad how many times I bought Super Mario Bros. for the plethora of Nintendo consoles released)
This is a very pro consumer move.
Having said that, what games have you played on the backwards compatibility program?
I have so far played Alan Wakeand Gears of War 3.
Also have installed Red Dead Redemption, Undead Nightmare, Alan Wake American Nightmare, Fallout 3 GOTY.
I still have my Xbox 360 and primarily play 360 game on the 360 but for some that show improved performance on the Xbone, I'll play it there.
