great thread guys a lot of great choices allready chosen.
heres my top7-

1-eternal sonata
Great rpg about Chopin in another world with his music. i hope they make it BC in the next batch.

2-silent hill hd collection
a lot of the complainers were wrong this games bugs were fixed on X1 unlike the buggy crashy ps3 version. i deffinetly reccomend this great collection along with homecoming and downpour which are also back compat.

3-mars war logs
very unique rpg betumup kinda like total recall. prety short but different and leads into the technomancer on X1 which was part of game pass and games with gold.

4-metal gear solid peacewalker
very underated game in the series. the fact that it has coop really held it up for me. fun upgrading mother base.

5-fable3
i picked the lesser popular one. while the anniversary didnt have multiplayer, 2 only had splitscreen, 3 has full online coop. this fable mayhve been too diferent for many to like but is very unique in its approach.

6-mass effect1
what more can i add?

7-tomb raider legend

One of the best multiplayer games on the system and one of my personal top 10 games on system. It was only a $1. I wish they would re-release it.

 

[Naked Lunch]

Looking over my collection, the 360 might have my favorite library. Its a toss up with the PS2. the 360 might have the best 2d japanese bullethell shmup lineup of any console - which is crazy. Heres some of my picks.

-Armored Core For Answer and Verdict Day -best mech games of all time.
-Cave shmups. Theres tons. Espgaluda II and DoDonPachi Ressurection are my tops.
-Virtual On 4 Force and Orotorio Tangram
-Bionic Commando 3d
-Bionic Commando Rearmed 1
-Tenchu Z
-Ace Combat 6 -timeless masterpiece
-Operation Flashpoint Dragon Rising - we need more milisims on console, this gen had next to none.
-EDF 2025 - came out late in the 360's life and was overlooked. content packed
-Poker Smash
-Bangai-O HD Missle Fury - Treasure at their most insane, one of the most difficult games ever
-Dungeon & Dragons Shadows over Mystaria - Capcom's brilliant D&D beatem ups.
-Strania -modern shmup classic
-Radiant Silvergun - hopefully its not a hidden gem but this is still the greatest shmup of all time and still fetches $100-200+ on ebay for the saturn original. I think people forget its on 360 and XB1 BC.

Some great memories here

I think NeoGAF time isn't as kind as it should be to the 360

Shame it has been delisted and no longer available for purchase

My favorite 360 exclusive.

We split screen finished all EDF games from newest to oldest last year, so we finished with 2017. OMG it runs so slow it's amazing. Kinda adds to the experience. Was a lot of fun

 

[-Troid-]

After playing Neir Automata while back I've felt like digging out my 360 and trying to find a copy of the first Neir since it's not BC.

Any other non BC games?

 

[CatLady]

I picked up this game for like $2 when trading in Far Cry 3 and loved it. Sadly you'll need an Xbox 360 to play it as it's the only one of the games I want to play that never made it to the BC list.

That sounds awesome, why stop with 2017 though? It runs like a dream on an xbx btw, I really love the xbox's bwc.

We did 5, 4.1, Insect Armageddon, Iron Rain and 2017.
2017 and Armageddon on 360. Rest on pc 4k 60

How's IR? Is it worth a playthrough?

 

[rofif]

How's IR? Is it worth a playthrough?

Only at heavy heavy discount. It's about 6 hours long, very forgettable and lacks the soul. Only redeeming factor is nice waifus. We even liked Armageddon better. 5 is the best though. and 2017 is the purest

Only hidden gems I see are Eternal Sonata and Mars War Logs. The rest are 90% AAA games that are far from hidden gems and talked about regularly

This was fun:

Yeah it wasn’t too bad. Apparently the free to play Warframe is the spiritual successor.

 

[VulcanRaven]

The Godfather 2

 

[FMX]

Probably the most underrated game of last gen. Maybe it was too ahead of its time. I played the hell out of this game. Microsoft is sitting on a gold mine with this game and with the right studio it could work today. Man I loved this game.

 

[FMX]

I played the hell out of this game too. I still on it as a matter of fact. Just good clean fun.

Is this game still online? Or better yet, do people still play?

There are surprises like Frontlines still being played, so it could be possible.

Has anyone played this? is it good?
