The original Borderlands has made it on the backwards compatibility list for the Xbox One. If you're part of the Xbox One Preview Program then you can experience the wide world of Pandora once again in its original glory.
"We are proud to support Xbox One Backward Compatibility by bringing the complete, original Borderlands to Xbox One, including all downloadable content. We know many of our fans have put in dozens, even hundreds, of hours exploring the world of Pandora on their Xbox 360, and now they can continue their adventures on Xbox One."
- Christoph Hartmann, President of 2K Games.
Thus far it seems that the backwards compatibility feature hasn't quite been appreciated as much as perhaps Microsoft has wanted. The performance of games being played from within the Xbox 360 virtual machine tend towards poorer performance, though not always. Re-living those memories from older games can be a joy, certainly, but because these games have to specifically have profiles so they can be played properly, what does this mean with the seemingly large business of remakes and remasters? Does this mean less work on backwards compatibility?
Regardless of whether you find it useful, it still remains one feature that isn't available on the PlayStation 4. There are currently 23 games that are backwards compatible with more on the way in the future.
