March Xbox One Backward Compatibility Predictions

ThisGenGaming says "I don’t know about you but I squealed like a little girl when they announced that the Xbox One would be Backwards Compatible at E3 2015. And now that it’s been out for a few months, I can honestly say it works really well. And in the few months that it’s been out, more than 130 Xbox 360 titles have been made available, with more being added each month at no extra cost to the players. So with March just around the corner, let’s make some predictions for the next batch of games to join the list."

I would like...and all of these I own currently on my X360 as digital downloads:

Virtua fighter 2
daytona USA
Virtual:ON
fighting vipers
Marvel Vs capcom: anthology
Marvel vs capcom 2
SF3
SF4
Darkstakers chronicles
finalfight:double impact
Capcom anthology
radiant silvergun
bangaio-O (its probably obvious I was a sega guy, back in the day at this point)
guardian heroes
Garou:MOK
KOF:98,99 and XII
El shaddai
Nier
Contra:hard corps
Castlevania :SOTN HD
layer section

I think I would enjoy them even more with the XB1 controller. Better D-pad for the fighting games.

Marvel vs capcom games.Good luck Capcom lost the rights to Marvel so they would need to pressure Marvel into doing it and i dont see them doing it as it wouldnt be profitable for them.

Vhampir2988d ago

Wouldn't want MVSC3 to compete with Marvel's own mobile fighting game.

Darkstalkers, 3rs Strike, and Garou... bring em' on... sale!

FlexLuger2988d ago

The thing is they dont have to sell them. I already own these games on my X360. Also, you can still buy MVC2 on XBLA. Glad I bought the anthology as thats the one that capcom stopped selling. So its a pretty rare conversion of MSH and the first MSH vs capcom. I also own these games on sega saturn, but I enjoy playing them on my HD via my x360. at this point I want to play em on my X1. The saturn games are boxed away and well kept. these digital HD versions, mean I dont have to put my saturn versions through wear and tear.

clevernickname2988d ago

Sorry to say, but with perhaps a few exceptions none of these games will ever be available as backward compatible. The Capcom games especially since they no longer have the rights to Marvel.

Rookie_Monster2988d ago (Edited 2988d ago )

Most likely games that were recently leaked. L4D2, Tekken Tag 2, and Red Dead Redemption.

christocolus2988d ago

Lost odyssey and Blue Dragon would make me very happy.

TheGreatGamer2988d ago

Oh man Phil has said he would love these games to be BC so I'm just sitting here waiting for both of these

Kurisu2988d ago

Two games I'd love to play! I never owned a 360, so it would be great to give them a go.

Can't wait to play Alan Wake as well when I get the code for it from my Quantum Break pre-order :D

jholden32492987d ago

Preach it!

I never owned a 360 so I'm incredibly excited at the prospect of playing:

Lost Odyssey
Blue Dragon
Tales of Vesperia

Screw all this Call of Duty nonsense, give us the gems! And Portal 2 as the cherry on top.

PhucSeeker2988d ago (Edited 2988d ago )

And Dark Souls which was confirmed. My x360 got RROD playing Dark Souls today, so i'm eager to continue playing it on xbone.

After 6 years, it was a great ride you beautiful bastard.

Khaotic2988d ago

Damn rrod. Sorry to hear it.

user99502792988d ago

I really just want Full House Poker and Skyrim. All else is tertiary.

2988d ago
Hold_It2988d ago

I don't know about you all, but I don't think Halo Wars will be BC until it's a promotion for buy Halo Wars 2, get Halo Wars 1 free.

Jmanzare2988d ago

I could be wrong but I think it's already available Bc in the uk

Revvin2987d ago

I may be wrong but it appeared then disappeared quite quickly like RDR did. I too would like to see it offered as an incentive for Halo Wars 2 as I felt the first game really showed how well an RTS could work when controlled by a gamepad which many people still seem to think is impossible.

Jonin7Spartan2988d ago

When will they fix Reach, I was playing it a week ago, the frame rate was abysmal. I had to go on my 360 to play it.
Are they just doing "another Halo Master Chief Collection" policy to it? MMC also still has low matchmaking times, and difficulty connecting to people.

You left out The Darkness games bring those back

fan_of_gaming22d ago

The head of Nightdive Studios has posted that The Darkness is on their list of games they want to do, so hopefully something comes from that

Yi-Long23d ago

Little Big Planet 1 and 2 deserve a mention, IMO.

Good call on Motorstorm, a game released 2 gens ago but still looks and feels so good. Motorstorm 2 and Motorstorm RC were gems as well. They followed up the Motorstorm games with the brilliant Driveclub, which still manages to put modern racing games to shame. Imagine closing down a studio as talented as that ... (!) Incredible.

A little 'arcade-gem' back then was The Last Guy, a top down 'follow the leader' snake-like game where you had to find and lead survivors to safety during an alien invasion, on terrible looking 'Google-earth' maps. Graphics were poor, even back then, but would love that same gameplay with modern maps and graphics.

Street Fighter 4, once it finally had a full roster, was quite good, but it was always an ugly game, sadly. Imagine bringing that back while using the current SF6 engine.

fan_of_gaming22d ago

Good suggestions, I'd be in for
LittleBigPlanet
LittleBigPlanet 2
Motorstorm: Pacific Rift
Motorstorm: RC

purple10122d ago

God damn I love motorstorm so much

At the time I had a low-mid range sony 40” tv, The latency to the controller was waaaay too high, would to play a modern version

In saying that later I got a 3d lg tv and playing the 3d motorstorm in my bedroom with the environment crumbling around the track, was something special, specially compared to what others were playing at the time, will always remember that

Skuletor23d ago

Some good choices here and Resistance: Fall of Man is my most wanted PS3 remaster/remake. Not sure about their claim it was Sony's answer to Gears of War though.

CrimsonWing6923d ago

I’d rather have sequels than remakes. Look at Dead Space 1 Remake. Would’ve been cooler if we got a new entry and it failed with sales sealing the fate of a sequel rather than just replay the same game and it fail in sales and we never get a new entry.

Remakes are great for things like PS2 and earlier games to really get a crazy new graphical coat, but I think we should ease up on all these remakes and actually do sequels.

fan_of_gaming22d ago

Yeah for sure, sequels would be ideal. But in the current market environment where many big publishers are risk-averse, I'd rather get a remaster or remake that a developer can do on a budget that will be approved, rather than nothing for an IP.

Inverno23d ago

I rather they remaster and port over to PC and current gen all the games permanently stuck on PS360. Those games don't need remakes, they need to be given a chance to live again outside of their confined consoles and then give a few proper sequels. Like Sleeping Dogs, Motor Storm, LA Noir, should get another entry.

fan_of_gaming22d ago

Yeah I'd be fine with remasters of PS3 games too, they don't have to be remakes.

Rockstar still strying to make GTA plus work
Should be $6 for the rdr game on sale not 6 bucks for a months playtime

Exvalos37d ago (Edited 37d ago )

I hear ya, 49.99 or whatever the price on that game is, is a bit stiff seeing as it's just a port.

anast37d ago

Why would anyone rent this game?

jznrpg37d ago

One of my favorite games from PS3 generation. I have the remaster as there was a buy 2 get 1 free deal a while back but the price they are charging for the port is way too high although not surprising at all.

CobraKai36d ago

Still tryna milk a dried up cow

OtterX53d ago

I still think this release was a big waste of time. I would have been a day 1 purchaser if they had redone the game w RDR2 graphics. I still own my PS3 copy, so don't see the point in picking this up if it's minimally improved.

CobraKai52d ago

I bought the game cheaper than the remaster on 360. There’s no reason in releasing the game at that price with so little improvements if any.

Profchaos52d ago

It's nice to have it as a handheld game I guess if you travel a lot but yes the ps5 release was a joke

kaos8952d ago

It plays at 60 fps on PS5 and a higher res if you value that.

OtterX52d ago (Edited 52d ago )

Yea, PS3 graphics at 60fps and 4k doesn't warrant the price. It was severely disappointing considering they already created so many of the assets north of the San Luis River (New Austin) in RDR2 and could have reused a lot of things, or reworked things bc they are the same area at different times in a fairly close history. It's friggin' Rockstar - you know they have the money and resources to have done it.

jznrpg37d ago

I like that I can play the game on current generation console but it would have been nice if they did more to make it look better.

Profchaos52d ago (Edited 52d ago )

They should have released the game in its current state not the state it launched in. Obvious we all wanted this to be a expansion to rdr 2 given that the original map was already remade in the game lots of people though this was just going to be added in later as paid DLC.

Now the game runs at 4k 60 fps on ps5 and can be brought on sale it's actually worth playing.

At launch the game was priced far to high and was a ps360 era game that couldn't run at 60 fps.

I'm in no way a frame rate snob I defended games like tears of the kingdom in the past for being 30 fps experiences but rdr was a joke at launch
