“Mass Effect 2 and Mass Effect 3 are coming to Xbox One Backward Compatibility today. #HappyN7Day

[OpieWinston]

Means the ME3 MP will get a fresh boost of players. Sweet!

[TylerFischer]

Yeah, I'm jumping on tonight. Ahh, the memories.

[lxeasy]

Awesome news!! Can't wait to replay the full trilogy again!

[christocolus]

Great. BC just keeps getting better and all BC games will play on Scorpio too. ME2 and ME3 have also been added to EA Access for free. Its not too far fetched to think Mass Effect Andromeda on Xbox One will come with all 3 games free it would be amazing if EA&MS agreed to do this for fans also Major Nelson says there will be more BC announcements this week.

[OpieWinston]

It makes BC the logical choice for Publishers because it allows them to sell these sequels with the previous iterations.

All depends if they actually try to develop and market a Remaster though.

[XanderZane]

Yes, this is excellent news. I knew it would happen eventually.

[mark_parch]

i can't believe i have never played these games . can't wait

[UnHoly_One]

How does the XB1 handle the multi disc backwards compatible games?

I assume you have to install them both, but it does it still require you to switch discs during play?

[OpieWinston]

The concept behind BC, that I've noticed is you pretty much DL the game. And then don't use the disc afterwords.
IDK how Multi disc works. Maybe 2 parts will be DLed and when you switch over it'll be just launching the second or third part.

[Bruh]

For Lost Odyssey I just put in disc 1 and it downloaded the whole game and when I want to play it I just insert Disc 1 and it plays the game just fine

[UnHoly_One]

Sweet, I was hoping it would be that easy.

Thanks!

[ThePope]

Way to go MS!

[Gazondaily]

Lol at disagrees 😂😂

My mate hasn't tried Mass Effect and he's a massive star trek nerd. He has no excuse to miss this now.

[ThePope]

I dont care about fanboy hate. I love ME and have already downloaded them.

[Ricegum]

Lmao. "Way to go MS"? Fanboy stuff there.

[christocolus]

Why does his comment upset you so?

[ThePope]

Nope I just love ME and MS keeps giving me the things I love. Sorry if you dont feel you can say the same.

[Kiwi66]

So says a fanboy LMAO and why are you mad that someone is happy with something thats to do with a console they enjoy plus why don't you say that when it is said about any other consoles

[Black0ut]

@Unreal

What is wrong with what Pope said? MS did this BC on their own dime mate, they're doing wonders so what's not to congratulate? You come off as really jealous and bitter, fyi.

[littletad]

Yo moderators, do your job right.

[Trekster_Gamer]

What fanboy stuff?
MS gave us backwards compatibility for games we loved on the 360?

Is that too hard for you to comprehend??
I suppose you would rather pay AGAIN for select few games to play on the PS4??????

[KiwiViper85]

Only a fanboy would call out this innocent comment as "fanboy stuff"

You must be very sensitive.

[Paytaa]

Finally!

[BigGamersSmallTalk]

The complete Trilogy is also now in the EA Access Vault on Xbox One. Nice to see all my games playable on one console. Props to Microsoft for realizing EA Access is in fact a value for gamers!

[Yohshida]

Wow thanks for the news. Thought I have to buy 2 and 3 again. EA access is a great deal!

[Mystogan]

Damn that is crazy! Anyone who thinks EA Access is not worth it at this point is just not a gamer or a complete idiot.

[Grown Folks Talk]

The beauty of being able to get them w/o the disc. My only misfortune is that for some reason my saves aren't on the 360 to upload to the cloud. I won't mind starting from scratch on these however. Skyrim soon come as well I believe. I do have my save for that.

[TheColbertinator]

Downloading ME3 today just for the co-op

[gangsta_red]

One of the best trilogies I played last gen. Even though part 3 wasn't as good as the first two it was still enjoyable.

[TylerFischer]

For me 2 was the best, followed by, followed by 1. But all are stellar :)

[Movefasta1993]

Mass 2 was my fav because of Thane and Jack!

[gangsta_red]

Mass 2 was my favorite out of the bunch too.

The alien designs and interactions was incredible in that game.

[oof46]

1 was the best. Wrex for the win.

[Battlestar23]

Awesome but i still hope they do a remaster for PS4/XBO.

[ThatGuyDart]

They need to do a remaster. I want ME3 multiplayer at 60fps

[OpieWinston]

But you don't need to play the MP in 60 FPS. It's not competitive and it's less twitch more tactical.

[Christopher]

Ah, very nice. The Trinity is back and I shall play them again.

[spicelicka]

Omg if they give one of these out with GWG I'll be super happy.

[Mystogan]

Its also on EA Access.

Honestly if you own an Xbox. EA Access is almost a must-have right now.

[spicelicka]

What really?

I actually have EA access on my XB1, I guess it would show up on there now that it's BC?

[CrimzonRazor]

get ea access and you get all three its only 30 bucks and has a load of great games

[classic19]

Xbox getting remastered through backwards compatibility mean while I'm looking at my ps4 saying I had a dream that one day. Then everything fades to black.. Nice perk on Xbox.

[Sm00thNinja]

Wow!

[tigertron]

Now I regret buying the PS3 versions. :(

[cfc83]

I kinda really liked ME3. OK the end is there. However up to the ending canon, the game was stellar(i don't 'hate' the ending). It's one of my all time favourite games. The entire Mass Effect series is flawed, as is the sci-fi genre as a whole, yet people go mad when the ending didn't make sense. Guffaw.

[Trekster_Gamer]

Christmas is coming early Woot!!!
Can't wait to play these awesome games with my awesome Xbox One controller!

[Kerppamaister]

Whoa! I picked a perfect time get back to EA Access. Did it for BF1 early access, now these and Mirrors Edge Cat-a-fish and that one game I can't remember are coming too!

[anthonyatom]

Battlefront?

[Kerppamaister]

That might be it - Thanks!

[343_Guilty_Spark]

I hope and this is probably a long shot that 360 games my get some extra resolution bumps on the Scorpio n the same way PS2 and Wii games get HD bumps with PCX2 and Dolphin.

[alfcrippinjr]

yeah microsoft is doing all this because the main reason is to why

is because they have shit all for the xbox one games

mine is collecting dust

wake up microsoft start giving us more good games.

[King Nezz]

Wait so Forza Horizon 3 and Gears of War 4 just came out and Xbox One only has crap games?? Okay buddy, stop trying to stick your penis into the PS4's disc slot.

[Trekster_Gamer]

alfcrippinjr
Just what we need more of here more filthy mouth PS4 trolls that are jealous.....

[King Nezz]

Does anyone know if this includes the Mass Effect Trilogy disc? It would be great to have them all on one disc.

[Bruh]

It does not, you have BC for each of the individual games

[King Nezz]

Thanks for the reply. I wish these things were actually mentioned with BC news.

[opinionated]

Nice. Already have me1 installed but there have been too many games and too little time to get to it. I will install when andromeda gets close.

[HAHAHAHAHAHAHA]

Why do i feel they hold back on these and use them at certain points for their own stupid reasons?
Not saying bc is a bad thing at all
But i feel like some of these games are prob ready to go way before they tell us what they have added for bc. For instance me2 and 3 may have been ready months ago but they release it on an anniversary type date instead of almost instantly for us to start playing them again asap
