PLEASE READ: Below are corrections regarding Enchanted Arms and Battlefield Bad Company, also clarifying what I mean by the image qualities being enhanced for all the games. I'm genuinely sorry for anything I ever mess up and get wrong, I'm 100% a one man show so anything and everything is done by myself alone, including research and fact checking. CORRECTION: I was wrong in the video about Miyazaki directing Enchanted Arms, because there’s a second director named Miyazaki that’s also made games at From Software! Dark Souls and Elden Ring were directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki, while Enchanted Arms, Metal Wolf Chaos (2004), and Armored Core: For Answer (2008) were directed by Masato Miyazaki. My bad Lol 😅 ADDITIONAL CORRECTION: Battlefield Bad Company was NOT the first console Battlefield game with a single player mode, it was actually Battlefield 2: Modern Combat in 2005, I didn't originally play either one so I was duped by Google/Wikipedia lying to me on that one, it literally says that Bad Company and Modern Combat were each the first on their own pages at the same time right now 😑 Finally, to further clarify about backwards compatibility resolution enhancements, all I'm referring to in the video is the fact that the image output resolution is upscaled to 4K, that does not mean the NATIVE image has been absolutely enhanced (only some automatic and basic additional filtering that makes it look nicer, but not an actual native overhaul) an example of a 360 game that recieved native graphical enhancements was Fallout 3 with its Xbox One X patch which gave a new 4K native image quality boost, whereas Fallout New Vegas did not receive that so it still maintains its original 720p native image rendering with only the standard upscaled output up to 4K resolution along with those extra filters. So when I say that the game's image quality is generally improved, that is going to pretty much always be the case with these games running on new Xbox hardware, it's just a matter of how MUCH they're improved. Sounds like nonsense, but I hope I explained it well because it's funky technical jargon. Update: I now believe that Mortal Kombat isn't so much crashing as it is just taking way too long to auto save and load, I noted it in the video but just give it a minute and it should be fine when that happens.
I appreciate you making corrections because I was flipping out when you said Bad Company was the first Battlefield game on consoles. Also, not every game gets upgraded to 4k in the backwards compatible mode on Xbox One X or Series X. That has to be enabled per game, and most games aren't upgraded that way. It's only the original Xbox games that all have a resolution upgrade. But those aren't all the way up to 4k.
@Nazraq04 Yes natively they're not upgraded to 4K like the OG Xbox games, but the display resolution is up to 4K which does make a difference, so the image quality output is beyond what the 360 is capable of, that's all I'm ever referring to unless otherwise noted, like Fallout 3 with it's Xbox One X patch that natively upgraded it's visuals. I'm really annoyed that Wikipedia and Google gave me that false info, because I don't own and wasn't looking into Battlefield 2 Modern Combat so it tripped me up!
I was about to say cuz I was going to correct you and say that you're wrong when you said that because battlefield 2 modern combat came out first in 2005 over here in North America USA and Canada in 2005 of course since you already know that now for PS2 and original Xbox at the time it was only for those two consoles before a special made one for Xbox 360 a year later in 2006
Honestly I use my Series X mostly for it backwards compatibility. It really does a great job and the fact almost all are enhanced really helps them shine.
@bb2status I think I would be doing the same if I got one. Issue I am having is my XboxOne is doing that now. Keep thinking the digital offerings in the future will be better run on the Series X.
This is a big reason why I own a Series X. The fact that they took the time to make games like Final Fantasy 13 compatible in 4K,HDR with better frame rates is a step above anything Sony has ever done. Microsoft has big problems with bending the knee to DEI garbage but when it comes to backwards compatibility they knocked it out of the park.
Now THIS is the kind of content I’ve been wanting to see. I’ve always wondered why more people don’t talk about Xbox games that are somewhat being lost to time by being delisted yet are still able to be experienced on modern hardware due to backwards compatibility. Mortal Kombat 2011 is my favorite in the whole series too and I had no idea it was delisted. More of a reason to hold onto my disc. I subscribed and I’m looking forward to episode 2 of this series
Congratulations! You got a new subscriber! Excelent content, i have more than 400 physical games on the Xbox 360, started my collection about 2 year’s ago, before the price exploded, this generation(Xbox 360/PS3)for me is the best, the majority of the developers could risk more so we often see great hidden gems
FEAR was unbelievable absolutely loved it. Played it Christmas time 2008. Needed a new game to keep me going but needed something cheap that no one else would buy me. 2 and 3 just didn’t have the same feel.
I got F.E.A.R in mid 2007 and fell in love with it and the expansion F.E.A.R files was also really good and I think is bc as well and disc only. I did just play that recently on the Xbox One needing to finish the instant action maps on extreme for the 1000/1000 completion. that Subway level was brutal.
@@oOignignoktOo1 Never got around to playing FEAR files, I mean around 2007-09 there was just banger after banger being released. If I remember correctly the achievements on FEAR were just ridiculous 😂
@@seanfullerton8161 1000 games of MP was tedious. Me and a friend kinda boosted it doing 1v1 elimination and taking turns blowing ourselves up with nades. The campaign achievements were tough especially the one where you kill everything because some enemies had glitch spawns that required you to backtrack and kill.
They should double down on backwards compatibility. Also most of the current titles still running at 720p so it would be nice for us to have the option of 4k. No excuses. They own so many publishers.
Great video and glad I wasn’t the only one noticing a save issue with MK9! Skate 2 is another de-listed gem, my friend was disappointed hopping into a Series S and having no way to play Skate 2 again
With the Series S being a digital only system, the only way to play Skate 2 is finding someone who bought the game digitally on the 360, and game sharing their account so you can download it on the modern console.
Awesome video! I have them all physically except Batman Origins which I need to track down. I must say I’m loving the backwards compatibility on Series X and I’m enjoying the awesome 360 library once again. Great times ahead!
I bought the new XSX 2TB Galaxy Edition. So I can play my original Xbox, 360 and XB1 games. DVD, Blu-ray and 4k disc's. Hate on XBOX all you want but the PlayStation and switch can't do that. XSX is such an underrated console.
You're very welcome, I still find myself tripping on bits of info sometimes and I always do my best to correct the record and be as accurate and honest as possible.
Wow what a deep dive, I never even heard of Enchanted Arms before and it's a From Software game. I feel like looking up there catalog pre Demon Souls, cause for some time I always thought they were a relatively new studio but they been around for ages
Absolutely, they go as far back as Kings Field and Armored Core on the PS1. Mind my correction about the director of Enchanted Arms, that was a different Miyazaki from the one famous for Darks Souls, From Software nonetheless.
Always a Great Topic and Thank you that you cover it!! Looking forward to more Parts of that Format!! :) Also Arkham Origins is much better than Arkham Origins Blackgate which also exist but i think this isn't backwards compatible.
The reason that MK9 got delisted from digital stores was because of licensing [Mainly that license to Freddy Krueger expired and the rights reverted back to the Wes Craven Estate] I don't understand why Batman Arkham Origins is delisted from digital stores [along with the DLC], but it's backward compatible. Another game that's backward compatible but delisted from digital stores because of licensing was 50 Cent Blood on the Sand [I bought it on Black Friday 2015 when Gamestop did the Buy2Get1Free special & that was the game I got for free].
I never owned bad company in the 360 days, I bought it digitally and played it through backwards compatibility during Covid, I actually bought 1&2. They worked great digitally. Wonder when bad company got pulled digitally.

Yep that's correct, Google/Wikipedia betrayed me on this one, they literally say the same thing for both Battlefield 2 Modern Combat on PS2, Xbox, and Xbox 360 as being the first console exclusive of the series (correct) and Bad Company being the first (incorrect) rather Bad Company is the 2nd Battlefield console game with a single player. I never played Modern Combat originally so I was relying solely on what I read, my bad. I updated my correction comment.
The worst thing you can subject yourself to is playing the PS3 version of FEAR over PlayStation's streaming service. Ultra low fps and ultra high lag 💀
EXACTLY! Yet some people cope and act like that's good enough for classic console titles, it is NOT a singular solution to making classic titles available, Sony needs to pull their heads out.
@@MindUrbidniss Thanks! No I don't have anything on Spotify, but here's my Playlist of my full music videos which is a mixture of a few of my original music and my two brothers' songs as well. My Original Music Videos: th-cam.com/play/PLWr6EDogwa5JOWvr6K-BkEnZZmav44PEP.html
I bet the backwards compatibility is superb on the 360 (original og xbox titles) but im so excited for the series x/s to continue getting more titles to play from older Xbox consoles like the xbox360 and the Og console. I'll get my X one day and play all the titles i can 😅
To be honest BC on the 360 is very hit or miss, many titles have new bugs and play worse than original hardware so it's not NEARLY as good as Series X.
Are the prices of 360 discs still crazy? I wanted to play The Simpsons game, but it was $100 or more last time I checked. I could buy an old console & RGH it for that price.
Depends where you look also, if you find some local market stalls, garage/carboot sales or random places that might be out of the loop of the online market you can get amazing deals. Even Facebook marketplace has some good deals occasionally, but most official retro stores and Ebay would be a higher price still, since "retro" gaming is pretty profitable now, but yeah it depends what you're after cause a lot of games are still pretty cheap in most places. I have The Simpsons Game, and Family Guy Back To The Multiverse which I got like a decade ago, glad I did cause the prices of them now has sky rocketed.

Just 5 discs? Wow. I did boot up MK9: Komplete Edition on the One-X. I was stuck with the vanilla mode and it refused to let me access DLC. I already owned a lot of DLC on my old account. I'm determined to see if I can access it yet.
@RetroMediaRoom Thank you for addressing it. I thought it may have been an isolated issue for me. Keep up the good work, sir. Sky is the limit for you.
Thank you! If you own the DLC online already you should be able to access them through your data management of the game and install them on your Xbox Series X.
This is what makes xbox series x my go to play current console. Games these days are not for me. I bounce between ninja gaiden black/2, altered beast arcade, sonic 3@knuckles(og got delisted, good thing i have it), king kong and tons more!
It does a basic display upscale to 4K, but it depends on the title for anything natively 4K such as OG Xbox games most if not all of which are natively upscaled to 4K. Fallout 3 is one of the few 360 examples of a native change to the visuals through an older Xbox One X patch that updated the game's native graphics, while New Vegas is still natively 720p yet displayed up to 4K unless running in 60fps with the frame rate boost mode which runs at 1080p.
When he forgets about BF2:MC 😭😭 dude this was one of the biggest multiplayer shooters on the OG Xbox, the 360 port was also really popular too. Also this game was not available for sale digitally too and is disc only backwards compatible. Also fun fact if you put the OG Xbox version of this game in a Series X, the console will download the 360 version.
man, when i saw that copy of bad company a HUGE rush of nostalgia hit me. this kid wouldnt stfu about this game, i got it and tried it and loved it and people got mad i praised it. then when 2 came out we were all playing it. also i managed to snag a copy of F.E.A.R. the dual machine pistols which i didnt know about cause i played the PC version
@@RetroMediaRoom the 360 era was the most iconic era to me cause i had moved to miami and could afford all the newest games. so this video felt good to watch
I have MK Komplete edition and Arkham Origins. Komplete edition comes with everything included and both game load and play without any problem on my Series X. Maybe be you have faulty disc reader or something because I never had problems with my system crashing
It only uses the disc to enable the download so the disc drive wouldn't be a suspect, you never know about these random bugs, I just mentioned it in case others noticed it getting stuck during loading times and freezing up.
I have mortal Kombat komplete edition it works normally,all dlc's characters and costumes,no problems with crash but I think it has a slight input delay,still my favorite mk!
I've noticed a pattern of people not noticing it getting stuck like I did, maybe I'll try running it off of another data source, it's currently on my expansion card which should be identical to the internal.
I'm pretty sure Left 4 Dead 2 also falls into this category even though the online is still active. It's hard to find a reasonably-priced copy too. I think this is also true in general for all Valve games on 360 but I may be wrong about that.
I honestly got rid of my Series X a few months back. Cause I mostly played 360, One and regular Xbox games on it. And still have those older systems. But before selling it off. I did play through all F.E.A.R. games in order. It was a lot of fun. But took forever playing throigh them all 😅
Another game is Skate 2. There is a store page for the game, but you can't buy it. The only way to play it on Xbox One/Series X is either by disc or finding someone who owns the digital copy on their 360 account and game sharing it, otherwise disc only.
@ it’s very unfortunate! I didn’t know the new ones still have the destructible environments! I still think red faction did it the best of all the games I played
Actually all 360 games do not upscale/render in 4k on series x. Certain games got patched via the emulator to upscale to 4k but there are tons that don't. Also the reason why games with dlc disc's don't work properly are because they have separate Media ID's and Title IDs as they are seen as separate games/units from the original versions. Hence why there are no GOTY or complete editions for any games on the Xbox store. Those editions were sold physically only.
Check the pinned comment for my clarification on the upscaling because I didn't claim it's natively rendering differently. In regards to GOTY editions working for DLC try telling that to the several people here in the comments that say it is working for Mortal Kombat, I can't test it first hand so I don't know 100% for that exact title. There ARE games that I know do work to verify DLC for games off the disc for backwards compatibility, particularly when they have a DLC second install disc where you solely install with that and it gives you the full game plus all the content, whereas disc one will only install the vanilla version (particularly Bethesda games) so it does happen.
I don't doubt it, I've seen some people like the second one more but not very many and hardly anyone likes 3 better, it's a great way to play the first one other than PC.
5:10 Battlefield: Bad Company Was Not The First Game Put Out By Dice On Consoles... That Honor Goes To Battlefield 2: Modern Combat They Wanted To Test How Battlefield Would Experience On Consoles Back In 2006 So They Made An Exclusive Console Only Spinoff And Useually Focusing On Campaign First This Game Opted To Focus On Multiplayer First And Foremost... The Game Was Sadly Delisted And Servers Shut Down In 2011 However You Can Experience What Once Was By Playing The Campaign On Xbox One And Series X Thanks To Backwards Compatibility Theres Even A Ranking System In Campaign And Unlike Other Battlefields Theres No "Main Character" You Can Hot Swap Between Squad Mates And Pick A Position In An Instant Its Unlike Any Other First Person Shooter And Was Pretty Innovative For The Time
That's odd, it just checks the disc for the license and then downloads the game, have your discs been coasters or is your disc drive also having a hard time reading Xbox One and Series X games?
Well, the fact that I'm seeing people claim that Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition both works AND doesn't work at providing the DLC worries me, so which is it? 😂
Deadpool is a funny one because I have the Xbox One version digitally which should supercede the 360 version. Spiderman 2 is an OG Xbox game which isn't within the purview of the video AND it's not backwards compatible in the first place...
Actually yes these are all backwards compatible on any Xbox One, the Series X is simply the best at it with some exclusive features such as FPS boost when applicable.
I'd LOVE to see more retro titles from all their past eras on PS5, they need to do more and stop calling it "good enough" to just throw them onto their lackluster PS Plus streaming service.
@@RetroMediaRoom definitely would love that you know it be amazing especially for saints row 1 2006 imagine that on ps5pro than set the 4k tv console settings to 120hz be dam amazing online co op with friends etc
Mortal Kombat ultimate makes me mad. It takes me a long time to get in a good mood again. I didn’t like how the characters were done in mortal kombat 1.
Hi mate. Only original Xbox games upscale automatically on series X. For 360 games it adds X 16 filtering to most games but it won’t upscale past it’s initial resolution unless it was patched later to do so.
True, that's why I specifically said 4K display resolution, so correct it's not a native upgrade like they've done with OG Xbox games which look REALLY clean. A clear example of a 360 game that DID get a native upgrade was Fallout 3 with it's Xbox One X patch, but, all games are still displayed in 4K with loading and performance usually being the most noticeable factors being better, particularly with unlocked framerates.
Origins is a fantastic game much better than asylum play it every year at Christmas on another note the batmobile makes knight unplayable so in my opinion the worst of them all
Yt mad slow in the head theres alot 360 games backwards compatible on series x saints row 2 old gta sa vanquish Castlevania los 1 and los2 devil may cry 4 and alot other games
@RetroMediaRoom its intersting how like xbox series x can make old games with better graphics but not ps5pro people say ps5pro only does better with new not old games
@@calvinburgos8236 I've been enjoying mine, it does do a good job pretty often enhancing PS4 games, I just wish it worked even further for older games and that there were MORE older games, especially PS3 era.

Absolutely going to be in another episode of this series 😀
It was actually delisted this year. I bought it on the Xbox store earlier this year like a week or 2 ago before it got delisted.
The reason that MK9 got delisted from digital stores was because of licensing [Mainly that license to Freddy Krueger expired and the rights reverted back to the Wes Craven Estate]

Just Keep In Mind It Only Works With 360 Xbox Games And They Must Be Backwards Compatible In There Region
That's actually very interesting and could be beneficial for collectors having a hard time finding NA copies 😀
First Battlefield for consoles was Battlefield 2: Modern Combat in 2005
Yep that's correct, Google/Wikipedia betrayed me on this one, they literally say the same thing for both Battlefield 2 Modern Combat on PS2, Xbox, and Xbox 360 as being the first console exclusive of the series (correct) and Bad Company being the first (incorrect) rather Bad Company is the 2nd Battlefield console game with a single player. I never played Modern Combat originally so I was relying solely on what I read, my bad. I updated my correction comment.
@@RetroMediaRoom modern combat wasn't that good, impressive for the time but it wasn't battlfield not even remotely
The worst thing you can subject yourself to is playing the PS3 version of FEAR over PlayStation's streaming service. Ultra low fps and ultra high lag 💀
EXACTLY! Yet some people cope and act like that's good enough for classic console titles, it is NOT a singular solution to making classic titles available, Sony needs to pull their heads out.
Love your video!!!!
Thank you! 😀
If Xbox had the same ideology like the 360 era. i would have one.
Well at this point hardly anyone does to be honest.
It's a damn shame _F.E.A.R._ _First_ _Encounter_ _Assault_ _Recon_ isn't available digitally anymore.
Yep, I wish I would have bought it that when I had the chance.
I'd preffer if we had 'physical only' games rather than digital only
Same
Wait so ma boi Arthur is Batman? That's awesome. I'm actually about to boot AO back up for Christmas. Also cool intro song
Thank you! That song is my original work 😀

I bet the backwards compatibility is superb on the 360 (original og xbox titles) but im so excited for the series x/s to continue getting more titles to play from older Xbox consoles like the xbox360 and the Og console. I'll get my X one day and play all the titles i can 😅
To be honest BC on the 360 is very hit or miss, many titles have new bugs and play worse than original hardware so it's not NEARLY as good as Series X.
Wild. I am playing Battlefield Bad Company on PS3 right now.
Sweet! 😀
Are the prices of 360 discs still crazy? I wanted to play The Simpsons game, but it was $100 or more last time I checked. I could buy an old console & RGH it for that price.
It all depends on what you're trying to get, in general they're not the worst give or take some rare titles, for now.
I have a good amount of titles I am going to sell. Most are good games. No sports. Let me know if you are interested.
Depends where you look also, if you find some local market stalls, garage/carboot sales or random places that might be out of the loop of the online market you can get amazing deals. Even Facebook marketplace has some good deals occasionally, but most official retro stores and Ebay would be a higher price still, since "retro" gaming is pretty profitable now, but yeah it depends what you're after cause a lot of games are still pretty cheap in most places.
I have The Simpsons Game, and Family Guy Back To The Multiverse which I got like a decade ago, glad I did cause the prices of them now has sky rocketed.
i don't know when is the backwards compatible update for the Xbox Series X?
Nobody knows at this point.
Who do you think would win in a fight, one of those rusky tanks or TruckosaurasRex?
I'd guess TruckosaurasRex 😅
The correct answer is the golf cart

There was indeed issues with komplete edition but thankfully the dlc does work with disc
It's unfortunate that everything is delisted but for those of us that originally purchased them at least we still have that content.
Thank you
You're very welcome 🤝
Hands down best console on the market
It's been my #1 console this generation 👏
Just 5 discs? Wow. I did boot up MK9: Komplete Edition on the One-X. I was stuck with the vanilla mode and it refused to let me access DLC. I already owned a lot of DLC on my old account. I'm determined to see if I can access it yet.
Thanks for confirming that info! I want to do more episodes of these disc only games on Xbox, more to come!
@RetroMediaRoom Thank you for addressing it. I thought it may have been an isolated issue for me. Keep up the good work, sir. Sky is the limit for you.
Thank you! If you own the DLC online already you should be able to access them through your data management of the game and install them on your Xbox Series X.
I have the Komplete Edition disc and it allows access to everything. Hope that helps.
@seudoquia3558 So you did not purchase the DLC whatsoever outside of the physical Komplete Edition and you have access to those characters?
This is what makes xbox series x my go to play current console. Games these days are not for me. I bounce between ninja gaiden black/2, altered beast arcade, sonic 3@knuckles(og got delisted, good thing i have it), king kong and tons more!
Oooohh King Kong is going to be on another episode in the future, I have a copy 😁
I remember Ninja Gaiden 2 being the main reason I rebought a 360 😂
Will it upscale graphics too ??😢
It does a basic display upscale to 4K, but it depends on the title for anything natively 4K such as OG Xbox games most if not all of which are natively upscaled to 4K. Fallout 3 is one of the few 360 examples of a native change to the visuals through an older Xbox One X patch that updated the game's native graphics, while New Vegas is still natively 720p yet displayed up to 4K unless running in 60fps with the frame rate boost mode which runs at 1080p.
Xbox 360 👍👌💪
The good ol' days 😌
When he forgets about BF2:MC 😭😭 dude this was one of the biggest multiplayer shooters on the OG Xbox, the 360 port was also really popular too. Also this game was not available for sale digitally too and is disc only backwards compatible. Also fun fact if you put the OG Xbox version of this game in a Series X, the console will download the 360 version.
There gold in dem Hills!!!
"And gold in them thar floors too!" (Three Stooges) 😂
Left 4 dead, but was shocked to see enchanted arms mentioned
Oh this is only Episode 1, more to come 😀
@@RetroMediaRoom thank you for the heart
man, when i saw that copy of bad company a HUGE rush of nostalgia hit me. this kid wouldnt stfu about this game, i got it and tried it and loved it and people got mad i praised it. then when 2 came out we were all playing it. also i managed to snag a copy of F.E.A.R. the dual machine pistols which i didnt know about cause i played the PC version
I love it! Nostalgia like this is why I love showcasing these games 😀
@@RetroMediaRoom the 360 era was the most iconic era to me cause i had moved to miami and could afford all the newest games. so this video felt good to watch
@@SimianScience That makes me so happy that you enjoyed, even with my mistakes 😅
I have MK Komplete edition and Arkham Origins. Komplete edition comes with everything included and both game load and play without any problem on my Series X. Maybe be you have faulty disc reader or something because I never had problems with my system crashing
It only uses the disc to enable the download so the disc drive wouldn't be a suspect, you never know about these random bugs, I just mentioned it in case others noticed it getting stuck during loading times and freezing up.
There is also the two Left4Dead and Battlefield 2 Modern Combat
Yep, I've got all sorts planned for future disc only episodes so more to come 😀
Pure (a pretty great racing game inspired by Motorstorm) is disk only
I'll look into it for another episode 👍
I feel like a Part 2 to this video could comprise of entirely Valve games since they're all delisted now, which is a shame.
Absolutely, I'm just getting started 😁
im glad I got the orange box back in 2020 when I got my scorpio/ one x
Same here!
I have mortal Kombat komplete edition it works normally,all dlc's characters and costumes,no problems with crash but I think it has a slight input delay,still my favorite mk!
I've noticed a pattern of people not noticing it getting stuck like I did, maybe I'll try running it off of another data source, it's currently on my expansion card which should be identical to the internal.
What about (Prince Of Persia 2008) ?
I don't know, haven't looked at it much, could be in a future video, anything is possible.
i really want to play more Xbox 360 games on Xbox Series X so bad?
Me too! I hope they add more 🙏
Dose the batman arkham origins have dlc
It does but none of it is available if you didn't originally purchase it 😣
I wish they would only check for the disk once every week. Would make it easier to jump arounh
Yeah that would be more flexible
I'm pretty sure Left 4 Dead 2 also falls into this category even though the online is still active. It's hard to find a reasonably-priced copy too. I think this is also true in general for all Valve games on 360 but I may be wrong about that.
Yep I'll be researching and testing everything for this, there's going to be a Valve centric video in the near future for sure 👍
I honestly got rid of my Series X a few months back. Cause I mostly played 360, One and regular Xbox games on it. And still have those older systems. But before selling it off. I did play through all F.E.A.R. games in order. It was a lot of fun. But took forever playing throigh them all 😅
Well, at least you enjoyed it until then.
Another game is Skate 2. There is a store page for the game, but you can't buy it. The only way to play it on Xbox One/Series X is either by disc or finding someone who owns the digital copy on their 360 account and game sharing it, otherwise disc only.
Yep that's another good example and how all these games are.
I'm commenting because I like commenting. That's my comment. Love the Xbox videos.
😂😁
Lord of the rings Lego and the orange box collection as well
Absolutely, both of which I have for another episode 😀
Why haven’t we gotten more destructible environments since bad company or red faction? Seems like they abandoned the idea
It does doesn't it?
@ imagine what they could do with the power of a modern console!
@@adamspencer6666 Absolutely, they just treat it like an abandoned gimmick nowadays other than a few games like the newer Battlefields.
@ it’s very unfortunate! I didn’t know the new ones still have the destructible environments! I still think red faction did it the best of all the games I played
Actually all 360 games do not upscale/render in 4k on series x. Certain games got patched via the emulator to upscale to 4k but there are tons that don't. Also the reason why games with dlc disc's don't work properly are because they have separate Media ID's and Title IDs as they are seen as separate games/units from the original versions. Hence why there are no GOTY or complete editions for any games on the Xbox store. Those editions were sold physically only.
Check the pinned comment for my clarification on the upscaling because I didn't claim it's natively rendering differently. In regards to GOTY editions working for DLC try telling that to the several people here in the comments that say it is working for Mortal Kombat, I can't test it first hand so I don't know 100% for that exact title. There ARE games that I know do work to verify DLC for games off the disc for backwards compatibility, particularly when they have a DLC second install disc where you solely install with that and it gives you the full game plus all the content, whereas disc one will only install the vanilla version (particularly Bethesda games) so it does happen.
FEAR is a fucking masterpiece and the best game of the trilogy by far.
I don't doubt it, I've seen some people like the second one more but not very many and hardly anyone likes 3 better, it's a great way to play the first one other than PC.
5:10 Battlefield: Bad Company Was Not The First Game Put Out By Dice On Consoles...
That Honor Goes To Battlefield 2: Modern Combat
They Wanted To Test How Battlefield Would Experience On Consoles Back In 2006 So They Made An Exclusive Console Only Spinoff And Useually Focusing On Campaign First This Game Opted To Focus On Multiplayer First And Foremost...
The Game Was Sadly Delisted And Servers Shut Down In 2011 However You Can Experience What Once Was By Playing The Campaign On Xbox One And Series X Thanks To Backwards Compatibility
Theres Even A Ranking System In Campaign And Unlike Other Battlefields Theres No "Main Character"
You Can Hot Swap Between Squad Mates And Pick A Position In An Instant Its Unlike Any Other First Person Shooter And Was Pretty Innovative For The Time
Yep I was incorrect on that because Wikipedia bold face says it on their page, I explain in the pinned comment of corrections.
My series x isn’t playing most of my 360 back compat discs.. it hurts me deeply.. 🤦🏿♂️
That's odd, it just checks the disc for the license and then downloads the game, have your discs been coasters or is your disc drive also having a hard time reading Xbox One and Series X games?
@ no issue with xb1 or xbs games.. I’m gonna try to find a cd lens cleaner .. maybe my laser is a bit dirty 🤷🏿♂️
You never know, worth a shot.
Suggestion for part 2. The Orange Box, another one of these
Oh yes it's already on the back burner 😁
I wanna throw this out there, the Orange Box on the Series X is no different from the 360 version.
@@josephhinojosa4715 Incorrect, it was given a 4K resolution enhancement through an Xbox One X patch years ago, it looks substantially improved.
Well, the fact that I'm seeing people claim that Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition both works AND doesn't work at providing the DLC worries me, so which is it? 😂
📈 💰🤑 games 💵
Yep, getting pricier all the time.
Missing Deadpool and Spiderman 2.
Deadpool is a funny one because I have the Xbox One version digitally which should supercede the 360 version. Spiderman 2 is an OG Xbox game which isn't within the purview of the video AND it's not backwards compatible in the first place...
Not on xbox one? 😢
Actually yes these are all backwards compatible on any Xbox One, the Series X is simply the best at it with some exclusive features such as FPS boost when applicable.
Condemned>>>> Fear
@@jamesteden4926 Honestly I've always felt similar, Condemned is an awesome game.
Batman Arkham origins need a remaster port
That would actually be cool.
I would've included 50 Cent Blood on the Sand.
I've heard that's a bit of a gem, I've never played it myself.
I really wish saints row from 2006 and fear 1 2 and 3 was on ps5pro but that will never happen sadly especially for castlevania los2
I'd LOVE to see more retro titles from all their past eras on PS5, they need to do more and stop calling it "good enough" to just throw them onto their lackluster PS Plus streaming service.
@@RetroMediaRoom definitely would love that you know it be amazing especially for saints row 1 2006 imagine that on ps5pro than set the 4k tv console settings to 120hz be dam amazing online co op with friends etc
Mortal Kombat ultimate makes me mad.
It takes me a long time to get in a good mood again.
I didn’t like how the characters were done in mortal kombat 1.
The latest Mortal Kombat is the only one I haven't played.
Hi mate. Only original Xbox games upscale automatically on series X. For 360 games it adds X 16 filtering to most games but it won’t upscale past it’s initial resolution unless it was patched later to do so.
True, that's why I specifically said 4K display resolution, so correct it's not a native upgrade like they've done with OG Xbox games which look REALLY clean. A clear example of a 360 game that DID get a native upgrade was Fallout 3 with it's Xbox One X patch, but, all games are still displayed in 4K with loading and performance usually being the most noticeable factors being better, particularly with unlocked framerates.
Wannabe tech geeks are the worst. You're not correcting anything. Your comprehension skills are the issue.
I got a Series X and ended only playinh 360 games
That's half of what I do, if not for backwards compatibility it wouldn't be nearly as relevant to me.
Whats EVERYBODY xbox gamertag,
Cant never find no one MK online to play ,
LET'S START A LIST.
There was a battlefield before bad company on consoles
Yeah I'm one off, Google/Wikipedia lied to me, so I corrected myself in the pinned comment.
Xbox 360
Battlefield 3 is now delisted unfortunately
Well that just adds it to the list of games for future episodes then 👍
I bought a disc of Lego Lord of the Rings because it's not on the online store
So did I! I'm excited to eventually cover it on the channel 😀
Origins is a fantastic game much better than asylum play it every year at Christmas on another note the batmobile makes knight unplayable so in my opinion the worst of them all
Yeah, I've noticed there're a lot of different opinions about the Arkham games.
You forgot silent hill downpoor
That is one of the only Silent Hill games I don't have, but I'll have to remedy that.
I hate when games get delisted, it's cringe 🙏
Me too, it always sucks.
Xbox original games look like a pc emulator on 120hz wow
They look better than ever! Which ones are running at 120hz though? Because I'm pretty sure none of them are able to run at an actual 120fps.
comment
I'll take it 👍
Yt mad slow in the head theres alot 360 games backwards compatible on series x saints row 2 old gta sa vanquish Castlevania los 1 and los2 devil may cry 4 and alot other games
Yep there are MANY games playable in the Backwards Compatibility Program, it's fantastic.
@RetroMediaRoom its intersting how like xbox series x can make old games with better graphics but not ps5pro people say ps5pro only does better with new not old games
@@calvinburgos8236 I've been enjoying mine, it does do a good job pretty often enhancing PS4 games, I just wish it worked even further for older games and that there were MORE older games, especially PS3 era.
