PSX Extreme writes: "Animated movies like "Bolt" are typically smash successes in the box office, primarily because the concepts in question can appeal to all ages. However, as we all know, movies and video games are often like oil and water; popular video games flop terribly when they become films, and the latter doesn't do much better when they become games. There have been signs of a recovery, though, as 2008 saw the emergence of solid, entertaining titles like Kung Fu Panda and The Bourne Conspiracy. Therefore, we have fresh hope every time we tackle something like Bolt, and thankfully, we came away from this one somewhat satisfied. There are several technical issues and despite the gameplay diversity between Penny and Bolt, the game also starts to feel quite repetitive very quickly, but it's still entertaining. For fans of the movie, Bolt could be worth a look, especially if you like fast-paced action platformers that aren't particularly strong on story."

NG:RE is good (2 was better though) and I havent played the others. My kids will likely get a kick out of bolt and tembo while I will give the F:13th the old college try.
The games with gold selection is trash. Besides Friday the 13th. Ninja Gaiden 3 is the worse in the whole series. Bolt and Tango...laughable
NG:RE is better then 1 or Black. Waaaaay more options. Better graphically. More playable characters. More costumes. More weapons. More ninjitsu. More enemy variety. In comparison. The first game is basic af.
Carlos writes "So, by now many of you know how things work. Each time a backwards compatible game releases on Xbox One we take a look to see if they are worth returning to once more. Given the busy week Xbox has had with backwards compatible arrivals, we're here once more to take you through our thoughts on each of the new Xbox One BC games in order to see if these titles are worth delving back into once more, or if they are better off left on the shelf... or your install list, whichever you prefer."
I don't know keeps on making these articles but every game that you can bring over to your new system is worth the return. I hope in the future no game is Left Behind a purchase is a purchase and everybody enjoys different things
I don't see anything wrong with an article about somebodys opinion about which old game to play that can now be played ?
These backwards compatible games have been by far and large the stuff you would normally just pass by in the trash bin or the discount bin at your local game store.
I would personally forgo trying to snatch up triple A titles which seem to be out of MS grasp and focus on getting a strong lineup of excellent Double A (or B grade games). LIke Spaletter house, Never Dead and Lollipop Chainsaw.
I was excited when I heard about this initiative, Now I've mostly forgotten it and to turn on my Xbox.
Love love love Arkham origins such an underrated game. The boss battles are on point and the detective mode is excellent. It did have bugs when first released but I didn't get them on my play through and I had it day 1.
John Bedford (Modojo): You can picture the lightbulb going off above someone's head at Rock Live : an endless runner mixed with the fastest man on Earth, Usain Bolt. OK, that's good but it needs something else. What about...zombies? Too generic, too saturated. How about...pirates? That'll do.
