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

Sciurus_vulgaris2759d ago

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

Skull5212759d ago (Edited 2759d 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_vulgaris2759d ago

Microsoft doesn’t own the Ninja Gaiden IP.

lxeasy2759d ago

Keep on adding more games to bc MS!

Shineon2759d ago

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

hiawa232759d ago (Edited 2759d ago )

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

Movefasta19932759d ago

didnt stop them from getting ngblack BC

hiawa232759d ago (Edited 2759d 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.

Movefasta19932759d ago

LMAO same, always NG2 and pgr4.

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

Kavorklestein2759d 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.

hiawa232759d 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

Profchaos113d 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_drake113d ago

tomb raider would definitely be worth an upgrade, imo

Storm23112d ago

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

P_Bomb112d ago

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

Storm23112d 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.

Remaster of a remake , which we already had a trilogy collection for on PS3. Ok.

Zenzuu165d ago

Not everyone has a PS3 or got the chance to play these games back in the days. This collection, is a good thing for those who wants to play it on modern platforms or those who missed out on it.

jznrpg134d ago

It has trophies so I’m in

CrashMania165d ago (Edited 165d ago )

This is most likely a PS2 classic rather than a remaster.
