Backwards compatible xbox one series#

I am concerned that if I cancel my gold membership (I.E.do not continue beyond the ВЈ1 one month trial) and then try and start any new backwards compatibility games, I will not be able to make any new save games at all!! Basically do I have to be a continued Xbox live gold member in order to really use backwards compatibility, given that this is apparently very very reliant on the cloud save feature which I understand to be on Xbox live gold only feature? However because the save data is reliant on the cloud, does this mean that I have to continue to be an Xbox live gold member forever in order to utilise any kind of save data on any backwards compatible game (even those started entirely afresh on Xbox One X), and continue to make new save games on these games? I am making good progress in half life 2 now on Xbox One X, and really enjoying it. I realise thesse subscriptions will continue to renew unless I cancel them however I am really not interested in multiplayer gaming and so the Xbox live gold membership feels of very little value to me and I would rather not continue with it ( Games pass, however, feels of much better value). Д«efore I restarted the game on Xbox One X, I decided to make use of the ВЈ1 offer of one month of Xbox live gold membership, and I also signed up for the similar offer for games pass. I knew that I would have to start the games again because the backwards compatibility on Xbox One only reads save data from the cloud, and that I had been unable to do this on Xbox 360 prior to purchasing my Xbox One X. So, I recently purchased an Xbox One X, and inserted the orange box disc. I did back up the orange box Xbox 360 save data to a pen drive, but I had read online that this wasnвЂ™t really going to work on Xbox One X anyway. I didnвЂ™t manage so much as I really enjoyed these games and was happy to play them all again. I therefore resigned myself to starting the orange box games again from the very start on Xbox One, as I would have no saved data on Xbox one X. I could not find a way to do it and I presumed that this was because I did not have a gold membership?

However I tried to do this on Xbox 360 but wasnвЂ™t successful. I had been playing through the orange box on Xbox 360, and understood that in order to continue to play where I left off on Xbox One, I first would have to save my save game data into the cloud. Obviously, I have a standard Xbox live account. I had an Xbox 360 for many years but I never ever had Xbox live gold because I am not interested in multiplayer gaming. Unsure if a 360 game you have is playable on your Xbox One? Check out the OFFICIAL BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY LIST.This is a bit of a complex issue so I will try and break it down as I can. Witch hunts and vigilantism often hurt innocent people and will not be tolerated! Don't do it!! Only Gameshare with someone you know and fully trust!Дo not post anyone else's Xbox gamertag here for any reason. Not only is it against the rules but it's a very bad idea to gameshare with a stranger. No posts asking for people to Gameshare with you. Low Quality Posts, memes, angry rants, ban rants, reposts, surveys, petitions, console wars posts, harassment, personal attacks, trolling, discussion about fraud or piracy, pictures of ordinary things (look at my new Xbox!), screenshots of text chats, personal gameplay videos, gamertag suggestion posts, or link shorteners may be removed at the discretion of the moderators. ABSOLUTELY no asking for gamertags or personal information. No redirection to an outside website, or asking for likes or follows on an outside website. Giveaways must be kept within the subreddit. No advertising, selling, buying, trading, or begging for anything.

Xbox Live director of programming Larry 'Major Nelson' Hryb suggested users could use the HDMI-in port on the console to pass an Xbox 360 or any other device with HDMI output through Xbox One. An exception will be made if you are a regular poster, post original content, and follow Reddit's guidelines. At its launch in November 2013, the Xbox One did not have native backward compatibility with original Xbox or Xbox 360 games. Submitting posts that link to your own blog, your website, or your YouTube channel are generally not welcome here and may be removed at the discretion of the moderators. Keep your posts on-topic related to Xbox.
