Microsoft Investigating Why Some Xbox 360 Games Don't Work On Series X
"Players have been reporting problems launching Xbox 360 games on Xbox Series X going back at least a couple of months, with some replies to threads suggesting others have had problems going back as far as last November. The most commonly reported problem is an error message that reads, 'Can't connect to Xbox Live. Select Test Connection to troubleshoot your connection' that appears when players try to launch a game."
"Several have stated that their Series console was brand new, suggesting it may be something impacting newer models particularly. While Xbox's post focuses on Series X consoles, some Series S players are also reporting the same issue."
"One user shared what they claimed was a support message they received from Xbox after reporting the problem that may explain what's going on: 'What we can explain is that Xbox 360 backward‑compatible games rely on legacy Xbox 360 services for entitlement checks and content delivery.'"
Xbox Series X users have reported issues launching certain Xbox 360 games, with error messages indicating connection problems. Despite having stable connections, players experience difficulties with some games while others work fine. The issue has persisted for months, affecting both Series X and S consoles. Xbox Support acknowledged the problem, stating it is a service-side issue related to legacy Xbox 360 services necessary for game entitlement checks and content delivery, particularly impacting newer console models.
