Xbox One Backwards Compatibility Gets Another XBLA Classic
Microsoft has revealed that the Xbox Live Arcade version of Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved, which came out on Xbox 360, is now available on Xbox One through backwards compatibility.
Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved is a pretty unique game, and one with a fascinating history. The series began as a simple mini-game added to the Project Gotham Racing 2. So many gamers liked it that it was decided that a standalone game would be made. This became Retro Evolved, launching on the fledgling Xbox Live Arcade service on the Xbox 360. The game was a smash hit selling very well and leading to the franchise that we know of today.

An There game which the majority are not interested in. Imo games which are high on request and demand should be made backwards compatible. If they were to be made backwards compatible I'm sure the Xbox version me sales would increase. I have a few friends which stated to me that they will not buy an xb1 until mw2 is allowed to be played.
