We already got Raiden and Peace Walker. The 360 versions of 2/3 from the HD collections are pretty crap from my memory. The sound is all screwed up. Best going with the PS3 version.

360 versions were great and the framerate was even better than on PS3. It had more stable 60fps. Also MGS2 Codec calls had to load longer to start on PS3. Only bad thing was that it had no pressure sensitive buttons.

 

[Allandor]

Assassin's Creed Liberation frame-rate is on average

~20% faster on the S.
~60% faster on the X. The X is the only console to hit 60 FPS at times in this game.

Well this is … why didn't they cap the framerate on the 360 version to 30... now I know why this game never felt fluent … but on the other hand, never liked this game it was just a cheap port on 360 of a not that good game.

I really hope we get some more x-enhanced AC games and maybe a x-patch for AC Black flag … that would be great.

Pure is BC.

But it looks like it was delisted, so I can't buy it digitally. At least not in my region.

 

[JohnnyFootball]

I played AC Liberation and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it.

If you haven’t played it you may be surprised.

I did play it in the summer of 2014 so it may not hold up so well now.

Not sure what region you're in, but afaik it's never been available digitally in the USA. I'd love to be able to buy it digitally, though. One of my favorite racing games of last gen.

Yep, could be. I'm in the same region (Canada).

The landing page (Canadian version) http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-CA/Product/Pure/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802425607d9 is identical in format to other pages that have formerly digital releases that have been delisted.

As opposed to a game like Condemned 2 http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-CA/Product/Condemned-2-Bloodshot/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802534507ef that was never digital.

Either way, can't get it now.

This just rocked up today:

I guess I know what I'll be playing this weekend on my X!

VG Tech: Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter Framerate Analysis:



Seriously impressive stuff. I'm wondering how the MS back compat team managed to unlock the 30fps frame rate lock on the Xbox 360 so that the X can hit 60fps most of the time (even the base Xbox One hits 60fps at times). If you haven't picked this one up yet, definitely do so; it's a brilliant game.

That is impressive. ~90% faster on the X. ~50% faster on the S. Xbox One is now the best place to play this game.

Though the 360 version appears locked at 30 FPS, the 360 game does escape that limit at times(around the 4:34 mark of that video it goes above 30 FPS hitting a max of 38 FPS).

I remember this game. It was one of the late games on Xbox 360, graphically, it was seriously improved compared to early ghost recon games and it was pretty fun too.

 

[Unity2012]

It's hard to believe it's been this long. I remember being amazed with GRAW's graphics and the soldier's animations among other things. I had so much fun with this game. I'm definitely checking it out on the X.

GRAW came out within the first 5 months of the 360s life(March 2006), I believe you're thinking of Future Soldier which came out 6 years later.

[RPGCrazied]

They are never going to add Magna Carta 2 are they?

 

[unknownphysicz]

i just want them to add medal of honor 2010 already

 

[maxwell247]

Still waiting for Ninja Gaiden 2.

Bought both games a few months ago on eBay. Remember myself deciding with what version should I go - ps3 or xbox 360. Bought 360 for potential BC on One. Guess it was right decision.

I always pick up 360 games when I find them on sale for cheap. Even if they aren't BC, they will eventually be. Many I had bought have already been included, like Spec Ops: The Line, Assassin's Creed Liberation, Metal Gear Peace Walker, etc.

 

[Allandor]

wow, totally forgot those games. Installing now ....
Star Trek Legacy next, please.

On top of that, the majority of third party games performed better on 360 than PS3. There are some exceptions but for the most part this is true.

I feel like it's time for an OG Xbox drop....

It's time for Simpsons Hit and Run!

 

[rmatheso]

… Freedom Fighters.

 

[Pallas]

I wouldn’t mind having Lollipop Chainsaw Massacre be backwards compatible, I still have the physical game but really never got around to play it much.

 

[Fox Mulder]

Still waiting for Ninja Gaiden 2.

 

[Unity2012]

… Freedom Fighters.

This!
I love Freedom Fighters. BC or remastered, I'll take it.

 

[Rodolink]

I still have faith for Nier Gestalt...

 

[Hoya Destroyer]

I used to want Soul Calibur IV and V to become backwards compatible. With the upcoming release of SCVI, now I really just want Tenchu Z there.

 

[EBE]

GRAW plays fantastic. What a treat.
I'm itching for someX Enhanced titles though. Hoping for Fable 2. I think it already looks pretty solid still but at 4k? It'd be a looker.

I'm hanging out for the another batch of Xbox One X enhanced updates too. Fable 2 in 4k would be brilliant. I'd also like some Obsidian RPG goodness in 4k as well (specifically: Fallout New Vegas and Alpha Protocol).

When was the last lot of X game updates and OG Xbox games added to the BC list? It feels like it was eons ago. I was definitely expecting something around E3.

 

[SmokyDave]

I’m digging BC because I can just impulse buy an old 360 game for £2, not worry about the disc condition, and then just chuck it in a draw when I’ve had my fun.

Man, I wish they’d add Import Tuner Challenge though. Can’t see it happening, but a man can dream.

 

[Cranberrys]

I hope for PoP 2008, PoP Forgotten Sands, Remember Me, Enslaved, FF XIII, XIII-2, LR, Alpha Protocol and Amalur. These are the last 360 games in my library not being back compat yet. Well, GTAV & LA Noire too but with the remasters I Don't see them coming. Anyway, I'm pretty sure both PoP games will be Added eventually but not so sure about the rest, especially Amalur and Alpha Protocol.

[maxwell247]

I bought Max Payne 1 & 2 in Canadian Xbox Live Store. Had to use VPN to download the games to my Xbox 360. Now I know for sure that NTSC games from Xbox OG won't run on PAL console It would be nice to have all the trilogy available via BC on XOne. Come on RockStar, make it happen, those games are awesome!

Splinter Cell Conviction is now free for Gold members.

Can't get it, keeps making me pay for it for some reason.

fake edit: never mind says free now. thanks

 

[TheWatcher]

Reach looks and plays fantastic after the latest update. That is the game I am hoping get enhanced.

[Mochilador]

Dante's Inferno!!

 

[jshackles]

YES Dante's Inferno!

 

[Leonidas]

Great to see Dante's Inferno, that game was 60 FPS previously but with no anti-aliasing.

 

[Thiagosc777]

Finally!! Dante's Inferno!

Now all we need is Ninja Gaiden 2 and 3 RE, Max Payne 3, FF XIII (all of them), Infinite Undiscovery, etc...

 

[Pantz]

!!! They just keep on coming

Always wanted to play those two.

 

[CatLady]

Singularity is the only game I'm really wanting to see get BC. I finally found it again @ Gamestop and my DVD drive died on my 360

 

[Hotel Security]

Great to see Dante's Inferno, that game was 60 FPS previously but with no anti-aliasing.

Out of all the hack and slash games, THAT'S the one that gets BC? Ug. Now we can spam the cross button over and over again in 60FPS!

No one is forcing you to play it ffs!

 

[Hotel Security]

^Oh, don't get so serious, man. Was just poking fun. But Dante's Inferno clearly has its flaws.

Strangely, if you want the game to kick your ass, just don't ever use the cross. Completely changes everything. It's so weird that they made the cross totally OP where it's silly to use anything else.
