Microsoft announced today that Xbox One preview members can now play over twenty (20) Xbox 360 games on Xbox One, with over 100 titles slated for release later this year.
Backward compatibility on Xbox One will be a standard feature when it launches later this year. The digital titles that you own and are part of the Back Compat game catalog will automatically show up in the "Ready to Install" section on your Xbox One. For disc-based games that are a part of the Back Compat game catalog, simply insert the disc and the console will begin downloading the game to your hard drive. After the game has finished downloading, you will still need to keep the game disc in the drive to play.
Now you can play a growing number of your Xbox 360 games on Xbox One at no additional cost. With over 100 titles slated for this fall, and hundreds more added every month, Xbox One is now the best place to play your Xbox 360 games.
This week, Xbox LIVE Gold members can save on the following list of Xbox LIVE Arcade retro shooter titles. Current deal of the week pricing is valid until Monday, February 14th. Check your region for availability.

If you had a chance to try your hand at Geometry Wars on XBLA you know how good this game looks and plays and I'm sure you will be as happy to see this bit of information that shows that a part two might be out real soon.
While i was just site hoping i happened across inside.mygamercard.net and saw this achievement list for Geometry Wars Evolved 2, with no real info but this list that could turn up fake (who knows) its hard to say if the game will be out any time soon if at all
Geometry Wars became an instant classic when it first appeared in Project Gotham Racing® 2. This exclusive Xbox Live Arcade sequel gives you both the original Retro version and a new Evolved mode, which combines modern graphics with old-school fun and now we might have a chance to do it all again.
Click the achievements list for a larger view since i had to scale it down to fit in the post.
These lists are based on global unique users connected to Xbox Live. If the Xbox 360 list and the original Xbox list were combined, then Gears of War continues to be the top Xbox Live title.
Play Geometry Wars on your PSP from Xbox Live Arcade.
NO DOUBT CONFIRMED AS FAKE!!!
Well after reading a little about it i could'nt believe my eyes when i finally watch the video and it showed a user downloading Geometry Wars Evolved using the Xbox 360 and Xbox Live Marketplace but choosing to download to his PSP memory stick.
After finishing the download he goes to his memory card and there it is with the xbox live arcade logo. I did notice that it says Trignometry wars but i have no idea what the hell it is as yet and it still looks like geometry wars to me..
Now dont get me wrong here.. Im not confiming that xbox live arcade is running on the psp but just thought id share what ive found while browsing.
If you have any comments of feedback regarding this story please post it in the official 360-hq forum topic here..
