New games are always welcome but still waiting, for reasons unknown, on the Microsoft published Ninja Gaiden 2.

Sciurus_vulgaris2831d ago

The consent of IP holders appears to be needed for Microsoft to make games backwards compatible.

Skull5212831d ago (Edited 2831d ago )

That could be. There was a Major Nelson post a while back in which he stated if you want games to be BC you need to contact and ask the publisher. Unfortunately I can't find any contact information for Microsoft Studios in able to request NG2. First NG is BC so I'm not sure what the problem is, then again maybe it is coming.

Sciurus_vulgaris2831d ago

Microsoft doesn’t own the Ninja Gaiden IP.

lxeasy2831d ago

Keep on adding more games to bc MS!

Shineon2831d ago

I love that game bought it for xbox360 ps3 and ps vita

hiawa232831d ago (Edited 2831d ago )

That is up to Tecmo, not MS? There must be some licensing issue.

Movefasta19932831d ago

didnt stop them from getting ngblack BC

hiawa232831d ago (Edited 2831d ago )

And for those bringing up NGBlack, well, again, Tecmo had to approve that, not MS. Other than a dev just not wanting to make their games available it is usually a license issue keeping games off of BC, not MS.

Movefasta19932831d ago

LMAO same, always NG2 and pgr4.

I would rather they released 4K patches for Unpatched Xbox One games rather than last gen games

Kavorklestein2831d ago

MS is the one to ask for BC, The reworking of code for 4k patches is done by the actual devs...
Try begging your fave devs to do this, as MS has little to do with the 4k Patches for Current gen games.

Hence, why Battlefield 1's patch took so damn long.

hiawa232831d ago

It seems they can do both. I am fine with what they are doing as I play more OG Xbox and 360 games than I do this gen games.

Looks like I'd have to upgrade to premium. Tomb Raider: Anniversary was my favourite game. It's great to see it now available on PS4/PS5

Profchaos185d ago

I like that we got tomb raider anniversary however only one new game in the premium tier is a poor effort after so many meh months of classic additions

gold_drake184d ago

tomb raider would definitely be worth an upgrade, imo

Storm23184d ago

Anyone here play Pacific Drive? I am very interested in it.

P_Bomb184d ago

Buddy platinumed it. He really liked it. There’s lotsa modding. They also patched it for 60fps at some point.

Storm23184d ago

Seems very unique which I am a fan of, especially these days where a lot of games end up being very similar. Thanks for the response.
