A big list of BC games would be amazing, but I don't see them dropping a lot at once. Since this new article on the homepage suggests MW2 may be made BC, there is a sliver of hope for that announcement during the Xbox presentation. Although my views on that game being added may be far different from others, I know this would create so much excitement for so many, not to mention, would really set them apart from competitors like Sony and Nintendo. The more games, the better, but the better the games the more likely they will actually get played more than once.


Yup the more games the better. I hope something good out of it all.

I'm sure a bunch of people would be super happy for this. Like you mentioned about setting them apart from competitors gives them the bigger hand. And more people buying games and being happy as well.

MW2 I feel a little iffy on. I know rumours shouldn't be any ground to not push a game forward, but with the apparent MW4 and supposedly MW2 remastered, I think it would be one of the few games I would say shouldn't be BC, unless of course the remaster justs get ruined by microtransactions. However; I think Microsoft should carry over the momentum they had at last year's E3 and bring over some requested BC games, but I really think they should focus on their indie games list, because both Microsoft and Nintendo had a bunch of indie game showcases for their consoles last year to expand their game library and they should really ride that momentum since it's good for everyone involved.

What else could they really hype with backwards compatibility from now on since all the old hyped up games are out now?


total miner forge and castle miner z baby


Indie games aren't applicable buddy..

plus you can buy them on steam


But why can't they bring it back dil??? It would be a cool comeback don't you think ?!?!


Mainly because the Indie Game Store has been shut down since 2015 and the XNA Software they were built from has been discontinued since 2013, there's no reason for them to create backwards compatibility for games that can't be purchased anymore.

But yes, it would be cool.


being serious i'd just like to see the majority of xbox games backwards compatible. i wish i could play soulcalibur 4/5 or some old tony hawk games.

Most of the reason why we don't have then is due to license issues, I wish we could have more collections like how Rare Replay had it but unfortunately there is a lot of studios that went under since then.


These licensing issues are actually also why some games are removed entirely from the Xbox store such as XBLA titles and GoD titles.

An example of this is Outrun Online Arcade, SEGA's contract with Ferrari had expires and they were forced to cease all sales after the month of the contract was over. This applied to the PSN store aswell as the Xbox store.

Yeah it's been out for a couple months now I think since November I believe. Hopefully the next leak for COD if it is MW4 all will go well. I'm sure it would be better than black ops 4.

I guess it's safe to say that 343i will be talking more about MCC and it's PC port.
Sad to see that testing won't start until after e3, but this means we will probably hear about what's taking so long and the struggles they've been having. Hopefully they are able to get a solid date to tell us as well, even though the timing is iffy, hopefully in the next month things will be sorted out and they can announce a real date when testing will start.

Thinking halo and gears would be the best for Xbox tbh.
