The Seven Games that WONT be compatible with Xbox One

I'm in the beta programme for all the new Xbox features, which means I get to play 360 games on my Xbox One before you, hah! But I haven't had it accepted yet, takes up to 48 hours to verify the code. What I began to wonder was what games are literally impossible or just sure as hell wont be compatible with the Xbox one.

THESE AREN'T FACTS, THESE ARE MY PREDICTIONS AND OPINIONS. ALSO ONLY GAMES I'VE PLAYED. THESE AREN'T IN ANY PARTICULAR ORDER EITHER BUT I'M TRYING TO MAKE THIS SENTENCE A TINY, LITTLE BIT LONGER SO IT FITS ONTO THE END OF THE PAGE. SO, HOW'S YOUR DAY GOING? AH THAT'S GREAT.

Guitar Hero/Rockband/DJ Hero



Yeah, all of them. None of them will be compatible, maybe Legends of Rock at a stretch, but there is no way of making the guitar controllers, drums and so on compatible with the Xbox One. I'm also gonna use this as a place to say that other games similar to this like Rockband and DJ Hero will not be compatible because of the controllers they use. Although with the new Guitar Hero and Rockband games coming out soon, we'll just have to wait and see.

Halo 3/Halo 4



I'm just thinking logically here, why would Halo 3 for the Xbox 360 be compatible with the Xbox One if it's already on there in the Halo MCC pack thing. Same goes for Halo 4 and ODST, maybe Reach and Halo Wars in the near future? C'mon, who doesn't want Reach and Halo Wars?

All the 360 Kinect Games (Thank God)



All the Kinect games. Yeah, that's right, in an article Phil Spencer explained that it'd be too difficult to put the Kinect games onto the Xbox One, so we wont be able to play all those poor games, which is a shame...

Prototype 1/Prototype 2



With the recent release of Prototype 1 and 2 on the Xbox One I really doubt that they'll make it backwards compatible, that wouldn't be profitable now would it? So you might have to keep on using your 360's to play this game series without spending a little extra cash on yet another digital game remake.

L.A. Noire



But wait! This is one of the greatest detective games and arguably one of the best games I've ever played! Why wouldn't it be compatible? Well, it has three discs, in the same article, Spencer said that it would be a struggle to make games with more than one disc compatible, so that means some of my other favourite games like Rage might not make the transaction as smoothly or at all to the Xbox One.

You're in the Movies



Here's one that very few of you will have heard of, this game was bundled with the Xbox Live Vision Camera when it was released and this game honestly wasn't too bad, it was Xbox's answer to the Playstation 2 EyeToy games. Personally, I liked it, it did a good job of showing off what the Vision Camera could do, of course, I doubt your Xbox 360's vision camera is gonna work for this game on the Xbox One, so we'll be having this game skipped out on.

Any game released on both Xbox One and Xbox 360



Battlefield 4, Destiny, Advanced Warfare and so on, they have physical and digital releases on both Xbox One and Xbox 360. If you're wanting people to buy Xbox One games (which Microsoft should want) then they probably wont make some of these compatible, especially considering many of them have an install disc on them.

So, give a probable goodbye to Kinect games, games with more than one disc, Guitar Hero's, games that have been remade, You're in the Movies and any game already on the Xbox One. At least we'll have Perfect Dark Zero...
