What if Xbox becomes the Netflix of video games? By adding its best and brightest games, Microsoft may finally give Game Pass the tools it needs to succeed, and in doing so, could find a new way forward for the Xbox platform. Between the relatively limited selection, and the lack of new, high-profile games it has never become the industry changing “Netflix of video games” that it could (and maybe should) be. Game Pass has been around since mid-2017, but has never gained much traction. Even without it, Microsoft’s first-party games have made some compelling cases for the console, but the sheer number of PlayStation 4 exclusives dwarfs anything Microsoft could offer. The Xbox Play Anywhere program, which allows players who own a first-party Microsoft game to play it on Windows 10 or Xbox One, sounds great in theory, but doesn’t incentivize buying a console. Since 2016, Microsoft has struggled to make a compelling case for owning an Xbox One. In addition, all new features of the more recent Xbox consoles work, including the ability to take screen grabs and record and share video of gameplay.Xbox Game Pass is now the best case yet for everyone to own an Xbox One The opening screen appears first then the game will load.Īll other aspects and features that would normally be available on an Xbox 360 or Xbox are available on the Xbox One/Series X/S too, including the hub on the former (which can be opened through a simultaneous press of the menu and view buttons on the Xbox wireless controller). When a supported game is started on the machine, the current or last-gen console opens the emulator and, in all regards, the game works as if it was running on an Xbox 360 or 2001 Xbox. The Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S are able to play Xbox 360 and original Xbox games through emulation software that makes your console think it's a last-generation machine for the purposes of playing classic games. How does Xbox backward compatibility work?
