That's not actually bad, I'm happy enough with them

Mr Freeze

I can't remember if Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising had coop or not, I just remember being bitterly disappointed with it.

I got rid of it, but if I spot a few people on my friends list playing this again I might get it another go.

I'm going to assume that "The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing" is an ID@XBOX side scroller, probably in 8bit too.

Here is diablo Van Helsing http://store.steampowered.com/app/215530/

I'm actually impressed they have the same pricing as steam listed for it.

"The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing is already in your Steam library"

Didn't even know :pac:

Van Helsing is meant to be really good, happy enough with what's on offer this time around.

Do the GWG become backwards compatible straight away or was it just a promise that they 'will' be BC at some point?

Hellrazer

Heres a really stupid question...since Dragon Rising is a backwards compatible game can you download it for the XB1??

It should be downloadable on xb1 as soon as it goes free. But we will have to wait and see.

All 360 Games with Gold are backward compatible on day one from now on.

Do you need to change locale? Can you do this as often as you want?

I've never done it before

Achievements aren't live yet, so if you care about those hold off on playing to avoid potential issues. I've had trouble in the past with games played before achievements were on xbox.com

You could wait 'till tomorrow and it will be available in Ireland. That URL above will automatically switch xbox.com to the New Zealand market where it's available right now.

You shouldn't have to do anything but click on "Buy now for Xbox ONE" confirm order, and done.

Tried out a bit of Van Helsing last night. A lot better than I was expecting. I actually enjoyed the 30 mins or so I played of it and will probably play a lot more

Lads, any advice on downloading 360 games to my One? I have recreated my gamertag / Live account since I got the One, so a little nervous about paying out cash for Operation Flashpoint...

If your account has a gold sub it will show as free when you go to download/buy from xbox.com just did it there now.
