Backwards compatibility on the Xbox One is a big thing for some gamers, but it doesn't come with its own little hiccups. Halo Reach has been available on the Xbox One via the backwards compatibility feature for a while now, but the performance for the game has been terrible.
Until now, players have struggled to play Halo Reach on the Xbox One without having juttery frames, freezes and crashes. Thankfully a brand new patch has been released for Halo Reach that has been designed to fix all the performance issues entirely.
The new update has been confirmed to help with frame rate on Halo Reach and from early tests it seems as if the game is now running as smooth as ever. Not only is Halo Reach on the Xbox One now working smoothly, but in some cases it has a higher frame rate than the original Xbox 360 version.
Now that we know that patches like this are possible for backwards compatible games, we wonder whether it'd ever be possible for a developer to revive a once-popular

Microsoft announced the backwards compatibility features of the Xbox One earlier in 2015 but it's taken a long time for the company to perfect the feature. This week, Microsoft announced that the patch that will include backwards compatibility for some Xbox 360 games will be released on November 12.
Although the backwards compatibility for Xbox One won't allow all Xbox 360 games to be compatible, if a developer or publisher of an Xbox 360 game gives Microsoft permission, it's likely that it will be added to the supported backwards compatible game library eventually.
Upon the release of the November 12 patch there will already be a large number of Xbox 360 games that players will be able to play on their Xbox One.
Below, a list of some of the currently announced games has been posted. This is only a small list, but it includes some of the more popular options.
+ Halo: Reach
+ Mass Effect
+ Perfect Dark Zero
+ Gears of War Series
+ Fable -

Another month has gone by, and Microsoft have announced their plans for September's free Games with Gold lineup. Whilst the new games for September may not be anywhere near as good as the free games released last month, you can still get hold of a couple of decent titles this month too.
For the Xbox One, players with an Xbox LIVE Gold membership will be able to grab Super Time Force all the way throughout the month, starting from September 1st, and ending September 30th. Super Time Force is an arcade side-scroller title that seems to incorporate game mechanics from games like Contra, and even Alien Hominid.
For the second Xbox One title, players will be handed Crimson Dragon for the second month in a row. Whilst the repeated free release for the Games with Gold promotion has disappointed some Xbox owners, it's important to note that Microsoft's original plans were to release just one Xbox One game for free per month.
As for the Xbox 360, players will be able to download

A Screen cap of an Xbox.commishapreveals that Halo 4 is a confirmed upcoming release for the Xbox 360, and we couldnt be more excited. It marks another installment in the already excellent track record of the Halo series. This is the news that millions of gamers have been waiting for, and it is sure to create a buzz throughout the gaming world. The Halo series has been a consistent part of the Xbox community, and with the pending release of Halo 4, the series proves to continue its solid footing. Halo 3, Halo ODST, and Halo Reach introduced new game-play types and new character classes, which launched the titles forward above their competitors, and we expect the same level of progression with the release of Halo 4. With the leak of the upcoming Halo 4 release, one must wonder as to the specifics surrounding the game.
