This made my day. Still have all three Bioshocks and Black OPS on X360 discs. Thank you MS for BC!

With the upcoming update to allow XB1 gamers to buy X360 titles directly from the console, you will see the floodgate open now with more X360 BC titles added from third party publishers.

Major Nelson already claimed this was false on the Xbox One subreddit.

Those games are already on the Xbox BC page as coming soon http://www.xbox.com/en-CA/x...

So of course it is coming. Halo Wars just got added for preview members.

Yeah... They've said those games were coming from the beginning. But it says 'Available Now', which is false and filed as a mistake.

With Halo Wars "suddenly" appearing today I think it means they're all coming within the next month or so which would be great. I thought they was going to headline each month with one of the titles or something like that.

Hmmm... I find it weird that 2k would allow the Bioshock games to be backwards compatible. The Bioshock collection is essentially confirmed, and you'd think 2k would want to maximize its sales by making "the collection" the only way to play the Bioshock games on Xone.

That being said, I don't disagree with the Bioshock games being backwards compatible (some of you may think so). In fact, I think it's awesome! I just think it's a weird business move on 2k's side.

The Bioshock collection could be 1080p/60fps which is what I assume they'll use to sell the collection.

Gears Ultimate came out and you still got the first gears free. You're not paying for the game if you already have it. And gamers could always opt on waiting for new collection.

I thought when they announced games would become available as they are ready that would mean we would get more games faster but its working out that less games are coming each month now

The movie was absolutely garbage !!!

Didn't the creator write it? It also made a fortune based on the budget so from a business standpoint it is a massive success.
