Its finally showed how Microsoft is making classic games playable ( Phil Spencer ) explain it. Kinetic games won't work.

Head of Xbox Phil Spencer explain last day how Xbox 360 game emulation being achieved on Xbox One.

Spencer said the decision to support Xbox 360 games was made to "make 360 owners look at Xbox One as a safe place to play."

 

 

 

"Millions of people made investments in 360 content," he said.

"We thought the right thing to do was to make that content go forward, but we didn't know [how difficult it would be]."

"The approach that we've taken is to actually emulate the full Xbox 360 hardware layer. So the [operating system] for the 360 is actually running when you run the game," Spencer explained.

"If you watch the game's boot you'll see the Xbox 360 boot animation come up. From a performance standpoint it allows [emulation] to work. We're able to get frame by frame performance equivalents."

"[Xbox Live] thinks you're on a 360, so people have been asking 'hey, why are you playing Mass Effect on the 360?,' I was actually playing on the Xbox One."
