List of Xbox One backwards compatible games

I think I can say with little argument that Phil Spencer's announcement of backwards compatibility for the Xbox One was the second largest announcement of the year, behind that Skyrim card game. Spencer even stated that DLC and download-only games from the Xbox 360 will be playable on the Xbox One, a huge feat, and hopefully a successful one.However, not nearly every Xbox 360 game will be backwards compatible on day one. As well, the physical disc will prompt a download for your Xbox One that will allow you to play whichever game you plan on playing. If Phil Spencer is to be believed, about 100 games will be backwards compatible by the holiday season.
