UPDATE (November 15, 2021): Today, we’re excited to add 70+ Xbox 360 and original Xbox games to our backward compatibility catalog in celebration of our 20th anniversary. This includes many of your top requested favorites including: 

  • The entire Max Payne series and the F.E.A.R. franchise are now playable on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles for the very first time.  
  • The entire Skate franchise is now complete with the addition of Skate 2 and playable on both Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles.  
  • We also heard the desire for more original Xbox titles to be added to the catalog. We are pleased to announce we were able to bring more than 20+ original Xbox titles to an entire new generation of gamers, including Dead or Alive UltimateStar Wars: Jedi Knight IIStar Wars: Starfighter, and Otogi franchises.  

Beats paying $70 for remakes.

 

TCHBFR.

The last? I thought they were aiming for full BC? 

I don't think it's possible because the games don't technically run off of a disc. Even though they don't touch game code I'm assuming they have to do something with the package which means they would need rights permissions.

They’ve done a great job. I just watched some f.e.a.r 4K clips. The game still looks/sounds great. I think I’ve beaten it like 5 times. I think I’ve beaten Max Payne 2 like 10 times. 

I played it last year, still enjoyed it, the textures look dull; the lighting is still impressive, and the AI is just salt bae :aitch:

F.e.a.r’s tension is amazing! The level design and AI always put me on edge.

We all know it's not possible and why, but they promised that and lemmings ate it up..
