March Xbox One Backward Compatibility Predictions

ThisGenGaming says "I don’t know about you but I squealed like a little girl when they announced that the Xbox One would be Backwards Compatible at E3 2015. And now that it’s been out for a few months, I can honestly say it works really well. And in the few months that it’s been out, more than 130 Xbox 360 titles have been made available, with more being added each month at no extra cost to the players. So with March just around the corner, let’s make some predictions for the next batch of games to join the list."

I would like...and all of these I own currently on my X360 as digital downloads:

Virtua fighter 2
daytona USA
Virtual:ON
fighting vipers
Marvel Vs capcom: anthology
Marvel vs capcom 2
SF3
SF4
Darkstakers chronicles
finalfight:double impact
Capcom anthology
radiant silvergun
bangaio-O (its probably obvious I was a sega guy, back in the day at this point)
guardian heroes
Garou:MOK
KOF:98,99 and XII
El shaddai
Nier
Contra:hard corps
Castlevania :SOTN HD
layer section

I think I would enjoy them even more with the XB1 controller. Better D-pad for the fighting games.

Marvel vs capcom games.Good luck Capcom lost the rights to Marvel so they would need to pressure Marvel into doing it and i dont see them doing it as it wouldnt be profitable for them.

Vhampir3726d ago

Wouldn't want MVSC3 to compete with Marvel's own mobile fighting game.

Darkstalkers, 3rs Strike, and Garou... bring em' on... sale!

FlexLuger3726d ago

The thing is they dont have to sell them. I already own these games on my X360. Also, you can still buy MVC2 on XBLA. Glad I bought the anthology as thats the one that capcom stopped selling. So its a pretty rare conversion of MSH and the first MSH vs capcom. I also own these games on sega saturn, but I enjoy playing them on my HD via my x360. at this point I want to play em on my X1. The saturn games are boxed away and well kept. these digital HD versions, mean I dont have to put my saturn versions through wear and tear.

clevernickname3726d ago

Sorry to say, but with perhaps a few exceptions none of these games will ever be available as backward compatible. The Capcom games especially since they no longer have the rights to Marvel.

Rookie_Monster3727d ago (Edited 3727d ago )

Most likely games that were recently leaked. L4D2, Tekken Tag 2, and Red Dead Redemption.

christocolus3727d ago

Lost odyssey and Blue Dragon would make me very happy.

TheGreatGamer3726d ago

Oh man Phil has said he would love these games to be BC so I'm just sitting here waiting for both of these

Kurisu3726d ago

Two games I'd love to play! I never owned a 360, so it would be great to give them a go.

Can't wait to play Alan Wake as well when I get the code for it from my Quantum Break pre-order :D

jholden32493726d ago

Preach it!

I never owned a 360 so I'm incredibly excited at the prospect of playing:

Lost Odyssey
Blue Dragon
Tales of Vesperia

Screw all this Call of Duty nonsense, give us the gems! And Portal 2 as the cherry on top.

PhucSeeker3726d ago (Edited 3726d ago )

And Dark Souls which was confirmed. My x360 got RROD playing Dark Souls today, so i'm eager to continue playing it on xbone.

After 6 years, it was a great ride you beautiful bastard.

Khaotic3726d ago

Damn rrod. Sorry to hear it.

user99502793726d ago

I really just want Full House Poker and Skyrim. All else is tertiary.

Hold_It3726d ago

I don't know about you all, but I don't think Halo Wars will be BC until it's a promotion for buy Halo Wars 2, get Halo Wars 1 free.

Jmanzare3726d ago

I could be wrong but I think it's already available Bc in the uk

Revvin3726d ago

I may be wrong but it appeared then disappeared quite quickly like RDR did. I too would like to see it offered as an incentive for Halo Wars 2 as I felt the first game really showed how well an RTS could work when controlled by a gamepad which many people still seem to think is impossible.

Jonin7Spartan3726d ago

When will they fix Reach, I was playing it a week ago, the frame rate was abysmal. I had to go on my 360 to play it.
Are they just doing "another Halo Master Chief Collection" policy to it? MMC also still has low matchmaking times, and difficulty connecting to people.

Red Dead Redemption Hits 3.3 Million Netflix Downloads on Mobile

Red Dead Redemption hits 3.3 million Netflix downloads on mobile, underscoring how subscription access drives reach over paid sales.

More like people don't play these type of games on their phone normally and don't try them out. Not like the places where people do play these games haven't crushed those numbers easily.

How many people actually played more than an hour of the game or came close to finishing it on mobile is the real question. If people aren't playing the games to a point that is purposeful, then why try when a subscription that is behind a streaming service isn't a sign of success but just curiosity.

What if Netflix becomes ‘the Netflix of gaming?!’

Alek83118d ago

I downloaded it because I already have a Netflix sub.
I am not going to buy it for $40 or whatever it costs on Google Play.

I tried it out and will be sticking to the PC version, but it's not bad.

Having said that, this is the issues I see vs the PC version:
1. Greatly reduced texture resolution.
2. Massive downgrade ALL lighting quality (this includes water, shadows, etc).
3. Stutter and heat. Prolonged play leads to both.
On the plus side, we have:
4. This thing is like 6GB vs the 12 on Steam.

Great way to try the game, but not the best way to play it.

darthv72120d ago

Perhaps Netflix will make a RDR series now that ST is done with.

Lionsguard119d ago

A Netflix version of RDR?... Oh boy... I can't wait... /s

TheColbertinator118d ago

They should build a production that includes members behind the True Grit remake and Hell on Wheels from AMC. Both were perfect for wild west vibes.

gold_drake118d ago

but i doubt people ACTUALLY played it on smartphone vs tried it out.

Another free update...good to know but I don't own a series X

Petebloodyonion152d ago

I’m not sure what the exact issue is. I had no trouble getting the free update—you basically get the new game for free if you have the 360 version in your digital library. Maybe the problem is related to owning or not owning the Undead DLC expansion.

Hypertension140151d ago (Edited 151d ago )

Yea I think thats what it is. I also own the game but not the expansion, and im unable to download the update.
