I'm so thirsty!

MS 'here, drink this gasoline'

Yup, might as well enjoy a smoke after that drink.

Blazing Angels, Cyber Troopers Virtual On OT & Radiant Silvergun

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Virtual On? Heard good things about that one.

 

[DOWN]

I'm surprised they keep picking rather unpopular games instead of the most requested...

 

[Cheddahz]

Oh damn, that's a good batch of games

 

[Theorry]

Brotherhood!!!!

 

[Naked Lunch]

Bout time we got Radiant and Voot. Amazing. So happy.

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

Also Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3 and AC Brotherhood!

Now we only need Liberation HD

 

[Backlogger]

Don't care about any of these but glad we finally got something. Hopefully we can go back to getting a couple new games per week.

 

[bede-x]

Radiant Silvergun! Thank you MS, thank you so much

 

[matrixman92]

brotherhood is cool, never even heard of any of those other games

 

[rmatheso]

Radiant Silvergun. Thank You.

 

[DOWN]

Oh Brotherhood is great

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Were also getting Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3 and Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood as well.

 

[CommanderBuck]

Yeah!!!!!! Virtual On!!!!!!!!

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

I'm surprised they keep picking rather unpopular games instead of the most requested...

A lot of the remaining most requested are not coming due to licensing issues, publisher issues, desire to hold them back for promotional use, etc.

 

[Rodolfo Brito]

I was waiting for Brotherhood, but I excpeted more.

Spoiler

Spec Ops:The Line

 

[hououinkyouma00]

All I want is Deathsmiles on my tv again, I'm sick of playing it on my monitor or my phone

Spoiler

although the iPhone port is surprisingly solid

Disappointing. There's some big ass games that aren't getting remastered that would be nice for them to allow on 360 as BC

 

[pete_clarf]

Radiant Silvergun and Commando 3 are awesome additions! I never did get Virtua On, so might grab that soon. Good week!

 

[Chucker]

VOOT and RS, blessed.

 

[MightyHedgehog]

VOOT, nice! Radiant motherfuckin' Silvergun!

 

[EmiPrime]

Feel free to add me if you want to play some VOOT, would be nice to play with fellow beginners instead of getting our arses beat by middle aged Japanese men who only have Virtual On games played on their Xbox profiles. My tag is my username.

 

[Lettuce]

Those arent PGR4, Ninja Gaiden 2, Crackdown, Asura's Wrath, Lost Planet or Blur!!!!

 

[brokenbeans]

Well at least we are back on track

Bollocks. What reason is there for no Mark of the Ninja? A Microsoft published game?

 

[Maffew]

'A lot of' isn't 'all', y'know.

 

[Zeta Oni]

Licensing issues still apply to games that MS has control over, that's why we still haven't seen a single Project Gotham Racing title, its all that licensed music (and cars). It's also probably why we still don't have Crackdown either, because the entire soundtrack for the game is custom made and the radio plays various licensed electronic songs from real artists.

 

[Hilbert]

Virtual On!

I have been waiting for this one! More more Sega please!

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Great drop of BC titles today. I was getting worried there for a minute.

 

[RagingAvatar]

RADIANT SILVERGUN :O

 

[oneida]

VOOT OMG

Yeah, that's why I don't see any of the X360's PGRs or OG Xbox's Rallisport Challenge 2 and PGRs happening. I wonder what is holding (Microsoft Studios published) Ninja Gaiden II up though; there's no licensed content in that game.

 

[RagingAvatar]

VOOT OMG

Yeah - add me dude, let's fight
GT: RagingAvatar

Could be priorities, I mean IIRC Forza Motorsport 4 has its own original soundtrack and that is still not on the program yet. 5 and 6 might be big improvements but I still do like the driving in that game.

Wish I had a better example than that, though.

 

[Keinning]

thank god for radiant silvergun to wash the bad taste of kane & lynch 2 from my soul

licenses are not only for music
specially in racing games using real cars

 

[Radiant Silvertuna]

RADIANT SILVERGUN YESSSSSSSS!




...now someone bring it to PC.

It [Forza 4] has licensed cars though. Imo, anything with real cars is unlikely to make it on to the BC list.

Horizon 1 made it to the list, and was only pulled because of music licensing. Though you are right, cars do need to be licensed and whatnot.

Seeing as DLC with no new music was going to be delisted as well, i believe the case with Horizon was car licenses expiring instead of music. Which they probably renewed for horizon 3 and thus could get the first game back to the store

Even though Microsoft published it Koei-Tecmo might be holding it up as they are seemingly uninterested in signing off on BC. There have been 0 Koei BC games and only 2 Tecmo published BC games (both externally developed indies) despite both being quite prolific on 360.

 

[ArchAngel]

VOOT? Fuck YES!!!

Good points, ah well. Pipe dream, but never say never. If Microsoft is serious about iterative consoles, I'll hold out hope that we see (almost) every Xbox game ever published someday.
