re: Xbox One: S $249 Now / X $499 November 7 2017
I was able to get Symphony of the Night (via Konami Classics volume 1) and Alan Wake's American Nightmare (via the follow method) yesterday and I did get to the title screens of both. It was nice to hear the Castlevania music again. Too bad that they are probably both been removed as of this morning (and I will probably be forced into an offline status if I try to play them). Hopefully this just means that in a couple of weeks we'll get them back officially.
Edit: I was still able to play Symphony of the Night last night but Alan Wake, not so much. Interesting thing I noticed for discussion purposes. Alan Wake American Nightmare basically gave me the error that I did not own the game anymore, and it was unavailable to play (online). Symphony of the Night on the other hand once I inserted the disc acknowledged I did own it and I played it as normal. This is a gimme of sorts, but it reinforces that if you really like the game and a physical copy is available...might want to hang on to it. Digital while really convenient can be taken away at a moment's notice. Just saying.

From Kotaku.
Four Xbox 360 games become backwards-compatible on the Xbox One today: Sam and Max:
Beyond Time and Space, Alan Wake’s American Nightmare, Lego Batman and Trials HD.

Lol, Alan Wake's American Nightmare comes back, I get to finish Lego Batman (I have one achievement left), and I have Trials HD on disc (compilation). And I never thought I would see one, nevermind both Sam and Max titles on BC. Now, give me a freaking sale already. $20 a volume/season is insane .

Zheros was pretty bad. Technically I guess it worked (for the ten minutes I played) but it played like a Game Programming 101 homework assignment.
Question - I am considering changing my gamertag. I have a One and a 360. Will it mess up any of my saves or ownership on either console?

That will change over time....right now the XB1 and PS4 are relatively new. Before you know it, it will be like Xbox 360 is and be major retail releases. It will never be anything truly ground breaking...but it will get better.
