... not sure if it's interesting gameplay-wise though. Will wait for the reviews.

All I wanna know is: Where the hell is IloMilo!?!?

Finally .Great job BC team. So glad I kept my copy all this while and Toy Story 3? Nice

sammarshall1022786d ago

I just bought mine a while ago thinking that Microsoft will make it BC

My soul is ready

Tapani2785d ago

Could you kindly let me know if the framerate is better and has the screen tearing been eliminated? I might get an Xbox One Slim for this, or maybe Scorpio would work even better next year...

Thanks!

Kingthrash3602785d ago

Xbox gamers have been asking for this exclusive ever since BC was announced last year, so great day. Getting mine! I just hope they see just how much it's user base wanted thos game and makes a sequel for the xbo...the xbo is in dire need on an rpg like this.

XanderZane2785d ago

Won't need to do that after the game is installed. You'll just install the whole game to the HDD and play. No disc swap needed anymore.

Bigpappy2785d ago

Sorry I wasn't clear. I was pointing out that we are now getting the multi-disk games that were previously not being converted.

Bahamut2785d ago

Great. Thanks to all of these great backwards compatibility additions, the Xbox One is finally almost as good as the Xbox 360! Bravo!

Still have my copy, MS continues to impress.

KiwiViper852786d ago

Never played this game, but the constant praise it gets has me interested. I will finally get a chance, considering I sold my 360 to buy Xbox one, and if not for BC I wouldn't have bothered pursuing it. Thanks Microsoft.

However, I think it is a missed opportunity to not have it included in this months gwg, it would have made this months offerings infinitely better...

pompombrum2786d ago

The game can be bought for less than a pint of beer these days, if you're a JRPG fan, it's a must play.. closest thing to a proper FF game last generation, definitely more so than corridor fantasy 13 anyway.

Exare2785d ago (Edited 2785d ago )

It's been dirt cheap for a good while now but if it follows the pricing trend of other BC games the price is going to go up now that it's able to be played on the XBO. Depending on demand it could go up quite a bit (if you want a physical copy).

Killz4Twinkies2785d ago

It's a great game, definitely one of the better rpgs of last gen

Spurg2786d ago

This game deserves to be on the BC list....a true gem in the 360 lineup. Lets hope they add Tales of Vesperia to the list as well.

Backwards compatibility is starting to blow up. I bet publishers are seeing increased sales from older titles.

curtis922925d ago

They barely see sales on new XBO games, though.

annoyedgamer2926d ago

lame..no Black Ops 1

Deus Ex HR was always on there this is just the Directors Cut.

Femto2926d ago

The directors cut is much better, has many differences from the original. And mankind divided is coming out soon so this is a perfect time

ScorpiusX2925d ago

Activision may be re-mastering for release with its next COD game after infinite war .............

gangsta_red2926d ago

All these small games and still no Sonic All Star Racing...

EDKICK2925d ago (Edited 2925d ago )

Anyone underwhelmed about BC titles lately have to understand that MS is probably waiting for BC blowout during their E3 press conference. Black Ops, Bioshock and other big titles have already been confirmed for BC at some point. Read Dead and other long rumored. I'll be very surprised if we don't see many of the most requested BC games announced at E3.
