Nothing wrong with more games. As someone who just fundamentally hates xbox, I am pretty jelly that xbox gamers get real BC.

Finally ninja gaiden 2 is BC, I've been waiting on this since they announced BC.

Bane352584d ago (Edited 2584d ago )

Yeah i thought ninja gaiden was gonna get remaster because it wasnt announced for backwards compatible til just now tho i would've been up for joy if they announced max payne 3 for backwards compatible today instead

hiawa232584d ago

I am so wanting MP3 on BC and X1X enhanced

Bane352584d ago (Edited 2584d ago )

@hiawa23 i think R* has plans to remaster MP3 at this point

Z5012584d ago

You couldn't play your copy of NG2 before this announcement?

Bane352584d ago (Edited 2584d ago )

No it just became backwards compatible today

Movefasta19932584d ago

not everybody still has their 360, that's why

Z5012584d ago

Kept your game, but no console to play it on?
No one sells 360's anymore?

Ninja Gaiden 2 is the main game I wanted bcthen alone one x enchanced is this game is more fun than bloodborne

Gwiz2584d ago

No contest,souls games are overhyped for difficulty.

bluebenjamin2584d ago

Very overhyped just because of difficulty not because of fun

Movefasta19932584d ago

facts, once you beat a souls game and do ng plus, you have the game downloaded. Once you return to ng1 and 2 you still can get your ass handed to you lol, the regular enemies are a threat, still attacking even when they are on the ground dismembered.

Gaming4Life19812584d ago

Agreed dark souls, bloodborne, and sekiro are overhyped games and dont compare to ninja gaiden 1 & , ninja gaiden 3 sucks.

What does BB have to do with NG2?
Why not insert Contra Shattered Soldier while you're at it.

bluebenjamin2584d ago

Ninja gaiden was once considered one of the hardest games ninja gaiden 2 has rpg elements so does bloodborn they have similar combat but ninja gaiden 2 just looks better doing it plus its fast pace and flashy combos removing limbs of foes remember 360 put more enemies on screen than ps3 on this game 360 had more dismemberment of limbs than the ps3 vs.360 had a better gpu but ps3 still to this day has an awesome cpu the ps3 had the prettiest ninja gaiden because of native 720 p while 360 pushed 640p now the one X has both higher rez and 360 style dismemberment But Ok for you contra ps2 version and nes

Movefasta19932584d ago

I do think ninja gaiden 1 and 2 are better than souls games, but they aren't even comparable

Z5012584d ago

Again. Why'd you pick BB?
Ninja Gaiden has ninja dog mode = easy
NG2 has a jump and block button
BB has none of those.

You could've picked a Devil May Cry or Bayonetta game. They're more similar to NG2 than BB.

What does PS3 have to do with this announcement? Your insecurities are showing.

Gaming4Life19812584d ago

I think they are being compared because of difficulty but I dont even think that is comparable imo. Ninja gaiden games are better though that's just facts.

Hungryalpaca2584d ago

And Forza is Better than MARIO Kart!!!!!

See how stupid that sounds?

bluebenjamin2584d ago

No Mario Kart is the best racer ever almost anyone can play

Amazing news! NG2!?!? Three Splinter Cell games!!! Fable 2&3 (the first is already enhanced)!!! This is what separates Microsoft's version of BC from others...its that they enhance both the performance and visual quality of these titles to keep them current in a lot of cases, instead of playing them exactly how they played and performed back in the day. Whats even better...I don't need to do ANYTHING but download the new patch...amazing.👏

Keep it coming Xbox!

More Splinter Cell Games Are Now Playable on Xbox One

Splinter Cell Blacklist and Splinter Cell Double Agent join the Xbox One backwards compatibility list. Xbox One is the home of Sam Fisher, it would seem.

I mean splinter cell did start on the xbox tho

Sgt_Slaughter2844d ago

As well as every other console at the time. Heck, even the N-Gage got a Splinter Cell game.

Tazzy2843d ago

I never knew Splinter Cell was on that that's crazy.

Sgt_Slaughter2843d ago

It was the first adaptation of the book so I imagine they wanted it on every platform they could.

Gamecube, PS2, Xbox, PC, Mac, Gameboy Advance, N-Gage, and Mobile.

RJ920092843d ago (Edited 2843d ago )

You know it was a timed Exclusive for the original xbox for almost year? Also had way better lighting and graphics compared to the game cube and pS2 version. So Technically it did start on xbox... 2002 November then 2003 sometime for ps2 and gamecube. I quick Google search will also confirm this

micdagoat192843d ago

First Splinter cell was exlusive to xbox for a while I felt like

Sam Fisher2843d ago

Wtf are you talking about it was on almost every console, the only "exclusive" was conviction after that all others were multiplat

MattE2843d ago

Yep, original was only exclusive for holiday 2002 then it came to PC and other platforms the following year

Grown Folks Talk2841d ago

The 1st was originally exclusive to Xbox, & utilized the system's advantages. Worlds better than the PS2 or Gamecube versions. You couldn't shoot out most of the lights on PS2, & levels were constructed differently. Same with the old Ghost Recon games. Always better on Xbox, which IMO was why Playstation only people pretended SOCOM was good.

Yi-Long2844d ago

Absolutely loved Blacklist. My favourite game in the series. I only have the PS3 version though, so sadly I won't get to take advantage of this BC, unless a good sale comes along.

Jinger2844d ago

Ironside was missed in Blacklist though

Goldby2843d ago (Edited 2843d ago )

It was so weird not hearing his voice, and the fact they made Sam much younger.

And built in mechanics to reward people for not being stealthy. Kinda defeated the purpose of what Splontercell is all about

Switch4One2843d ago

It's gonna come to GWG eventually.

Vegamyster2843d ago

It's currently free on the XBL store, they haven't pulled it down from last night yet.

Switch4One2843d ago

You are thinking about Conviction

DaMist2844d ago

id be so happy if the mp servers would still be online...i wonder

micdagoat192844d ago

I want the Originals now so I can play them all in Order
