Titanfall got moved before it had an OT2

Final Fantasy XV stayed in Gaming with an OT2

So is BotW

Ok but those still had |OT| in the title, this one doesn't.

FF and BOTW will get moved eventually, but I don't know why Titanfall was moved so fast

Go look in community, every thread there has |OT| except for the ancient old ones. Thus it's easy to assume that, like this thread, if |OT| doesn't go in the title then it won't get moved to community

I just need one Saints to be complete

Please!!

Yeah what gives when SRIV is BC when it has port. Its also by far the best in the franchise.

Also come on Sega, where's VF5 Online and Vanquish!

None of your logic is true

Look at the Amiibo thread

Does it *really* matter where it is? Just move your bookmark to wherever the new thread is and keep discussing and posting about games

Tbh yeah because new people don't look in community that much, so threads eventually die off as people stop using Neogaf or get banned and don't have a whole lot of new blood in them

You originally posted this thread in community and it got almost zero attention, to the point where you had to ask a mod to move it to gaming... Community kills threads IMO

None of your logic is true

Look at the Amiibo thread

Good point, I have no comeback

Regardless.. why jynx it?

but community people have the cooties

real talk now i don't think a thread for bc announcements really should count as "community" material. if anything it stops the board from being flooded by new threads every tuesdays and thursdays. its fine here and its easier to check when something new drops.

 

[D'ultimate]

I'm on this forum every single day. Years on end. I don't go to the Community side.

I visit this thread almost daily. If it goes to the Community side, I will no longer view it.

To be honest I tend to forget that there's a gaming community sub-forum here.

VF2! Hope Fighting Vipers is due soon too.

Model 2 graphics are some of best aging graphics ever.

I Def be on tonight..

 

[Rodolfo Brito]

OT 2 | Dubai is running out of time, gentleman

Spoiler

I Want my Spec Ops The Line :/

 

[dreamcastmaster]

Just 2 more Model 2 games left for backwards compatability, Fighting Vipers and Virtua Striker 2. The have to be a lock for release this year.

Fixed. Virtua Striker 2 was a Model 3 game.

So lovely

 

[Ash Sparrow]

I have to admit I'm a bit surprised at how nice Halo Reach looks on my Xbox One in comparison to on my 360, almost looks like a new game at times

You mean "3 more". Virtual On 1 is also not BC yet.

 

[Xbudz]

So hyped we finally got VF2.

Fighting Vipers is next on my list

 

[Enter The 36 Chambers]

Where the fuck is Ninja Gaiden II

 

[Synth]

Nor is Virtual On Force... so 4 more.

So what's the VO that was released recently? Where did all these VO games come from?

 

[Synth]

So what's the VO that was released recently? Where did all these VO games come from?

The one that recently became BC is Virtual-On Oratorio Tangram. It's essentially Virtual-On 2, and was initially released on Model 3, then ported to Dreamcast and Naomi.

There's also Operation Moongate, that was the first game released on Model 2, and ported to Saturn. It's available on JP XBL/PSN.

Then there's Virtual-On Force, which is effectively Virtual-On 4 (the third game is Marz, which is on PS2). This one is slower paced, and focuses on 2v2 battles. It's available both as a region-free physical release, or on XBL for both JP and HK. How this game ended up being ported exclusively to Xbox 360 in asian markets is one of life's greatest mysteries.

But VOF isn't a Model 2 game!

Ah yes. I forgot the context of the discussion at that point, lol.

Haha, I still got it.

Yep. Really hoping Sonic Racing 1 gets in there. Can't be a licensing issue. It has Banjo as a guest.

 

[chronic_archaic]

There are certainly some odd omissions so far. Saints Row The Third always confuses me since it's engine is literary Saints Row IV and it can't be a GWG thing since it already is one. Some of the Sega Vintage games missing is also quite weird. And where the fuck is Uno? That's like a definitive 360 game.

 

[amardilo]

Is Deadly Premonition backwards compatible?

Not yet. It currently has just over 3000 votes so it might be very far off.

 

[dreamcastmaster]

They don't want to support the camera?

 

[dreamcastmaster]

I'd like to see them reset the votes and see how that changes things now the games are older and we have sequels/remakes available. I feel a lot of those votes were day one hype wish lists that don't reflect the main interest in backwards compatible games now.

Xbox One Backwards Compatibility |OT2| Crushing hopes, dreams, blacks

/edit/ in retrospect this is probably not a good idea, lmao

I love you, oneida.

Gave up on this. Just playing it on my Vita for my fix.

I kinda hope that with OG Xbox BC they will push for Ninja Gaiden Black since it was one of the best games on the console and a real showcase at the time. If that happens then I think Ninja Gaiden II should happen as well. But yeah, it's a real shame it's not BC yet. This and PGR 4 are my most desired BC games.

Sigma 2 on vita is like, the worst running game in memory XD

Probably licensing issues. The license is owned by someone else and has made another UNO game for Xbox Pne

It's not the same game! It's not the same content!

But why?

Hey, Costume Quest 2 had barely more than 500 and made it ^^

But iirc, Access Games said on their FB page that Deadly Premonition won't be BC (?). Shame, because I'd really love to play it again (maybe even buy a digital copy, now that I'm slowly moving my BC games to full digital)

 

[Izuna]

Man, I can't wait for Ninja Gaiden II tomorrow.

 

[eighty(one)]

This game is crazy fun; why has it not been requested as backward compatible?!?!??

1111 people have requested it. Might be tricky if it has licensed stuff in it.

I really doubt the votes count so much as a criteria, to be honest.

It has been said by Stillwell, MS engineer regarding BC, that one of the business goals of the program is to have people migrate from 360 to XB1, so I think the criteria must be something like:

1) Active player base on 360
2) Number of digital owners of the game
3) Number of overall owners of the game
4) Votes

Then you have publishing rights sorted out... I guess this makes sense with titles such as COD Ghosts, Black Ops and RDR (item 1 above) the number of arcade games and gwg made BC (item 2 above) and EA Games like Mass Effect, even if the digital version is not available for purchase, only through EA Access (item 3 above).

I may not be precisely correct but I think it's something along these lines.
