    Shame for those on PC, unobtainable for them.

    It'd be cool if it included remasters of games or some other way to nod back to 360 games without locking people out

    Some are available through cloud gaming at least, but you'd need to upgrade to gamepass ultimate for that.

    It'd be nice if XB One games played on a Series console counted.

    I've unlocked 4 Joy Ride Turbo achievements and they aren't counting towards this target?

    Shows you on 8 for the target now, perhaps they were just delayed in registering?

    You unlocked them "offline" so they don't count.

    If you're using backwards compatibility to play the game, it's advised to start an Xbox party in the Xbox 360 emulator so it notifies you if you've been disconnected from Xbox Live. Otherwise you have no way of knowing and they'll all be tagged as "Offline".

    I was thinking of using Disney's: Bolt, virtua fighter 2 or tekken 6 for this target...

    Ah, I forgot that happened with 360 games🤦. Oh well plenty more to unlock in it. Thanks for telling/reminding me though.

    Do ALL games on Xbox 360 with backwards compatibility count, or are some excluded?
    I wanna use Far Cry 3 for this.

    Did some on dead space 2 and they did not counted for me.
    Do you have to play on x360 to obtain them? It's weird

    Can’t believe XBOne games don’t count when played on a Series X. Makes no sense, they are literally backwards compatible games. The new consoles have been out for over 3 years now. Time to update that.
