Inquisitr reports that 16 games are added officially just this Dec. which includes both game requests from Xbox LIVE Arcade and Games on Demand. Some of the games included that were from  Xbox LIVE Arcade were "Doritos Crash Course," "Hydro Thunder," "Iron Brigade," "Motocross Madness," etc. While Xbox Games on Demand includes four titles, "Deus Ex: Human Revolution," "Halo: Reach," "Fable III," and "Kane & Lynch 2."

Apart from these additional games, the outlet noted some of the games that are missing on the expected list of Backwards Compatibility games which were "Call of Duty: Black Ops" and "BioShock."

"Somewhat disappointingly, most of the games teased for the December update are not included in this list. Microsoft listed Halo: Reach, Halo Wars, Call of Duty: Black Ops, Bioshock, Bioshock 2, Bioshock Infinite, and Skate 3 as games coming to Xbox One backwards compatibility when the initial list of titles was revealed in November. Only Halo: Reach made it into the December update out of that selection of seven games," based from the outlet.

Meanwhile the outlet also detailed that the hype of the Xbox One Backwards Compatibility meant still a huge playtime for the classic favorites such as "Fallout 3," "Assassin's Creed II" and less on the newer ones.

"Since launch on Nov. 12, fans have been enjoying Xbox 360 games on Xbox One for the first time ever, logging more than 9 million hours spent playing Xbox 360 games on Xbox One," based from the publication from Microsoft. "And the most popular games fans from around the world have been spending those hours playing are Fallout 3, Gears of War 3, Just Cause 2, Assassin's Creed II, and DiRT 3."
