Microsoft Press Conference | E3 Round-up

Now it's Microsoft's turn. What did they have to offer last night of the Xbox variety?

Backwards Compatibility
Yes that's right. All those 360 games you spent years collecting can now also be played on the Xbox One! Digitally purchased games will start showing up automatically in your game library. Retail Xbox 360 disks won't work natively with the Xbox One, but will initiate a download of an Xbox One-compatible version when inserted. 

Elite Controller 
From October 2015, you'll be able to get the highly customisable Xbox Elite Controller which holds a whole host of different features and gadgets. It has hair triggers and improved thumbtack sensitivity. But mainly, the customisation allows you to swap out some components & the D-pad and players can do some button remapping.

Halo 5: Guardians
No-one really cares about the story in Halo do they? Well anyway, the multiplayer is getting a new, interesting premise reminiscent of Titanfall, where the AI is going to be mixed with real players in Halo 5's Warzone.

Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare 2
Now this looks like its gonna be more fun than the first one. With new plant and zombie types to master, you'll have to get some practice in before the early 2016 release.

Rise of the Tomb Raider
Available on 10th November 2015, this timed-exclusive got a brand-new gameplay demo for you to feast your eyes on. Get ready for some tomb raiding.

Fallout 4
Bethesda kept some of the most important info to themselves during their conference to save for Microsoft. You'll be able to port mods onto the Xbox One with the all-new Fallout. And you'll also get Fallout 3 for free when you buy the One version!
