360 beats Xbone

Hey guys,

So Reach is my all time favorite Halo. The aesthetics, the gameplay, the music, the story all had me so obsessed with the universe that I tattooed the Halo logo on my arm. When backwards compatibility came for Reach I was ecstatic. However, three months later, the Xbox One version still plays sub optimal. I went up to my attic, grabbed my trusty white and dusty 360. Dusted it off and brought it down to my television set. Plugged it in, launched Halo, and wow. I hadn’t really noticed the difference before because I hadn’t played Reach in years on the 360. But when I played on the 360 right after the Xbox One version of it, the FPS seemed doubled and everything felt a lot more natural.

So moral of the story, if you wanna enjoy Reach and you want an advantage over those poor sods who have sold their old 360… Then this is the way for you. Stick your 360 back into the tv and enjoy the game the way it’s meant to be enjoyed. Backwards compatibility was nice on paper, but the execution is below par.

Yeah it’s definitely the worst backwards compatible game.

Yeah the xbox one has had trouble with emulation, something microsoft is working on

To buy my XB1, I sold all my 360 controllers, the Kinect and games except Reach and O.D.S.T. But I kept the 360 just to play Reach and I’m glad I did.

I agree. I only still have my 360 because I play reach on it. It plays so much better on the 360.

It is on Microsofts end, hopefully they fix it sometime

Good info. Been thinking of going back to play it again. I know SS4 looks just as good on 360 as SS5 on PS4.

I cleaned the entire memory card of my old xbox… except for Reach. It’s basically the only reason I still play on my 360 every once in a while.

Better yet, just stay with the 360 as it is better than the Xbox One.

I play reach on the 360, because the frame rates stink on XBOX one.

Reach on the 360 is wayyy better, however my 360 experiences frames lag where it sticks to a screen off and on for about 10 seconds twice a day. Still far efficient than my One.
