I would love a PC port of Daytona USA (the HD re-release on PSN/XBLA). It's a shame Sega Rally Championship didn't get the same treatment.
I'd also be happy if Daytona USA and VF5 were backwards compatible on Xbox One.
It's worth noting that PS2's backwards compatibility wasn't perfect, either. For instance, Mortal Kombat Trilogy is incompatible with every PS2 model.
So slightly inferior graphics is reason enough to shun backwards compatibility altogether? That's ridiculous. More games to play is always a good thing. When I'm not stomaching Halo 5's multiplayer with friends, I'm revisiting some of my favorite XBLA games. Believe me, Microsoft's marginal focus on BC isn't effecting their efforts elsewhere.
Does this issue only happen during the campaign? I've played hours of the multiplayer and haven't experienced this.
I trust meta user reviews more than critic reviews. A lot of critics don't even complete the game they're reviewing, and they might not even be a fan of the type of game they're reviewing. The downside to user reviews, though, is they're easy to manipulate.
Opinions will always vary, but the general consensus is that it's a great Star Wars film. I'm inclined to agree. It definitely gives fans much to talk about.
Kudos to those of you who haven't spoiled anything. I've seen it already and was fortunate enough not to have anything spoiled for me, but I can definitely relate to those who haven't been so lucky.
"It's impossible to play with friends."
False. I've had no problems whatsoever teaming up with friends.
"The lag is atrocious. The second your connection stutters you are FROZEN AND NOT ALLOWED TO PLAY."
Also false. Sounds like it's something on your end. Stop playing on Wi-Fi, maybe?
"This game is pure dog crap."
That's subjective.
"The onl...

People keep saying this, as if the industry would suddenly fall back in line and give us what we think we deserve. In reality, they would only find new ways to nickel and dime us to death, while cutting every corner they could find. Hell, they're going to do that anyway.
Today's economy is all about spending the least amount of money to make the most amount of money.

Do you think you're the only one who has to live within your means? Things like food, water, electricity, automobiles, and gas have all skyrocketed in price since 1985, so I don't see the point of whining about DLC when a core game still costs the same as it did 30 years ago, despite the increase of production costs. Unlike the aforementioned, video games are just a hobby.

Gaming wasn't as popular in 1985 as...
It's simple economics. Video games are one of the few commodities that haven't gone up in price over the last 30 years. A US$60 video game in 1985 would cost US$132.62 in today's money after inflation, yet we're still paying US$60 for a core game. As much as we all like to rag on DLC (especially on day one), it's a necessary evil as production costs continue to rise. Just be glad you're given the choice to invest more in a game if you enjoy it enough rather than paying...
It's not misleading at all. Even the subtitle says "The best games for Microsoft's decade-old console, one for every year." It says nothing about exclusives. It's also not "indirectly" saying 360's exclusives weren't good. It's merely one person's list, and lists are subjective. It's hardly worth reading into. You also seem to forget that, in many cases, multi-plat games were marginally better on the 360, so it doesn't surprise me to see...
The title says "10 years of great Xbox 360 games", not "10 years of great Xbox 360 exclusives". Besides, there's plenty of exclusives listed in his honorable mentions. It's all just preference, really.
I put many, many hours into RDR and Dark Souls.
Just because backward compatibility isn't a system seller to one person doesn't mean it wouldn't be to another. Some of us have invested a lot of money on previous generations. To have access to those libraries on a current gen console without having to purchase those titles again is a plus in my book.

Back in my day, we didn't have these fancy gameplay videos to gawk at -- we had magazines with low quality screenshots of games that usually weren't complete.
I also walked 5 miles to school in the snow.

I never actually said they were stealing money from me, did I? You've been insinuating that I did. What I specifically said was they take the money straight out of your Xbox Live account if you don't spend the money fast enough. Pardon the term, but it's more like Indian giving. What goes into my account should stay in my account because I already earned what's there. I don't know why that's so hard for you to understand. Only the codes the...
My initial playthrough of Bloodborne left me with mixed feelings, but I learned to appreciate the game a lot more after my second playthrough. The DLC is well worth it, too.
