My random guess,this might be a emulation update, letting them do stuff to the games that weren’t possible with the original backcompat program

Xbox backward compatibility on PC?

Send like their goal is to bring everyone to pc and bring owned Xbox games to pc for everyone. This will probably be our last console and going forward they will only release games for Xbox pc which you will have to buy a pc for 💀

Interesting. Maybe adding achievements on original Xbox games?

Jason Ronald has seen XboxGamePreservation.com. It’s the best way to show support for the games you’d like to see made backwards compatible

I can pray this means more BC games added to the marketplace even though I know this isn’t what that means.

So the license holders finally gave the OK for a new batch of BC games? Or does this mean they are doing another performance pass (like making more xbox/360 games 4K60)

This is so damn huge. I care about this. Not crying for all of the rest of eternity about exclusives and feeling “cheated”. Whether legacy or the fantastic current output, I just want good games and good hardware. Same reason I’m super excited for next generation. PC benefits that I can unbox and plug in. And every day instant boot up with the press of a single button to play on the couch.

Man it really seems like Phil was holding back the entire brand for years. A change up in leadership and things are finally back to happening.

Can you imagine if it’s expanding the backwards compatible catalog that they abandoned lol.
But it’s just going to cloud streaming

I’m gonna keep my expectations and check and humbly assume that this means the following:
-OG Xbox on PC
-OG Xbox live resurrected for these games
-Achievements added to OG Xbox games
-in celebration of OG XBL returning, we get a bc version of Phantasy Star Online
-in celebration of Sega bringing back PSO, they will also bring back JSRF
-in celebration of two rereleases of games that originated on the Dreamcast, they bring back all Dreamcast games.
-I attain immortality
-I gain the ability to travel between realities as I please
-I gain the ability to reshape reality to my liking
