I find it disappointing, that there is no Forza Motorsport game, that can be purchased as of now, the Licenses of Every Forza Motorsport game has expired. It is an issue that plagues Motorsport Video games. The bane of Video Game Preservation, that dreaded licensing. There is one issue, the only issue that would reasonably be able to deny these games from being preserved. NONE OF THEM, are compatible with any other Xbox Console. These are the other omissions from the catalogue, They are all Xbox 360 games. As for licensing, isn't that already sorted? Microsoft did it once before, Why can't they do it again? This one needs an explanation because Technically, there is no issue, If anything, getting an Original Xbox game to run on the Xbox 360, would be more of a technical challenge than running it on an Xbox One. HOW? How is a game that was backwards compatible with the Xbox 360, yet isn't on any console after? I don't see how it is unable to be added " due to licensing, legal and technical constraints", Because that certainly didn't apply for the Xbox 360, even though the Xbox 360 and the Original Xbox don't even share the same architecture, whereas the Original Xbox and the Xbox One do.
#Forza motorsport 4 backwards compatibility series#
The game is backwards compatible on Xbox 360, but not Xbox One nor Xbox Series X|S. YET, If you insert a Forza Motorsport disc into an Xbox 360, it will boot and can be played. This Year was the 16th anniversary of the Forza Franchise, and yet, 6 years of Forza, HALF OF THE FRANCHISE, is left to rot, as slowly but surely, the discs from which they can be played, decay.įorza Motorsport, the game that birthed the franchise, is NOT backwards compatible on Xbox One & Series X|S. I feel the same way about this, as many would if Halo was absent from the Backwards Compatability list. SO I find it, infuriating that you CAN NOT play every Forza game with BC. Now I don't know if my feelings are shared, but, an Xbox without Forza, is not an Xbox. The worst part, they have done it before on the Xbox 360. I know that the recent drop of 70 BC games is meant to be the last of the BC titles, however, there is one series, that is missing.
