What were you doing when Xbox was giving away free games with gold free is the cheapest price Xbox gave away the most games away free then anyone PlayStation hasn’t given to many games away free maybe about 25 games free that’s it the rest your renting once your no longer a plus member you have no access to those games
It was a great service for sure; I didn't have Xbox Live Gold for most of the service and only started grabbing the Gold games when I got Game Pass. You're right though, it was a fantastic service 👍
Doritos crash course has a dlc that adds more levels. That will vanish with the death of the 360s marketplace. I see the future of the 360.. it's called modding.
Oh that's good to know! Though I wonder if I hold out that they won't end up with a free update releasing the DLC afterwards 🤔 But you're absolutely right, once games quit being offered for sale then the modding scene tends to take over
@SvennyMcG agreed. If it's a licensing issue they should do a bulk sell on everything. In my opinion. Also subtract already owned stuff. Just a one time buy all digital stuff. Even if it was like 1k-2k I could see people paying. Guess they really just don't like money.
I wonder if they brought in Guardians of Middle Earth say, into Game Pass, if it would drive players to the online community 🤔 From what I've seen, Pacific Rim is a good-looking and would also be a great addition to the backwards compatibility list 👍
@@SvennyMcG it would because everyone that left went to go play smite on xbox one at the time. It was just me and 10 others for awhile before it eventually died
I'm familiar with the Def Jam games but somehow I hadn't heard of Getting Up - what an interesting, fun-looking game. Definitely going to check it out and great suggestions for backwards compatibility. Thanks for watching 👍
A truly fantastic list, hopefully one day realized. The Spider-Man games were fun, the first was a nice touch and the open world aspect of Spider-Man 2 was fantastic. Jet Set Radio & Amped would also be awesome additions, I wonder how much the music would hold up getting these added 🤔
Haha you're right, once you lay it Horizontal it definitely makes it so the label faces up, but I tried it Vertical first and it just caught me off guard 😅🤦♂️
The way they have been able to enhance older games with smooth textures, increase framerates etc, I agree that games like racing stand to benefit big time 😊👍 Thanks for watching
Here's what I found on the Xbox Store: Breakdown [$9.99] Crackdown [Free] Crackdown 2 [Free] Too Human [Free] Injustice Gods Among Us [$19.99] Aegis Wing [Unavailable] Doritos Crash Course [Free] Hexic [Free] Backward Compatibility is the best thing to happen to Xbox, and I really hope Microsoft brings back the Backward Compatibility Program. I hope Sony's PS3 to PS5 Backward Compatibility is the same way as Xbox's Backward Compatibility. You got a nice Original XBOX and Xbox 360 game collection there, I've been building my Xbox 360 collection since late 2022, and so far, it's going well. There are rumors that the Transformers Games might be added to the Xbox Store [Hasbro even said they are willing to work with Microsoft].
😅 In fairness, this was just a snippet from a PS5 Slim Console overview and hopefully helps someone, somewhere who can't figure out why their disc won't read 🤔😊
Thank you! 🙏 I'm hopeful that with the Xbox 360 store closure coupled with the rumours that Sony may bring PS3 backwards compatibility to the PS5, as well as the Activision acquisition, puts pressure on Xbox to revisit it soon 🎮
I want to see Samurai warriors 2, Warriors Orochi 1 and 2, and something never made it out to backward compatibility at all from Xbox 360 one. The warriors games is my most favourite of all time, I would highly recommend trying them out.
You know, I haven't played the core Samurai Warriors games but I absolutely LOVED Hyrule Warriors - I crushed it on Wii U then did the whole campaign on 3DS and now have it on Nintendo Switch. I completed Fire Emblem Warriors as well, lots of fun. Great selections here, I think you're right in that I'll have to try them out sometime too 😊👍
Rainbow 6 black arrow original xbox game, the ENTIRE Reason whh i bought a series x, to see how dope it would be on a new console with really nice quailty an fps, it doesnt even work on the series x, tf is this shit, just make it where qe play off pur discs wtf is this
i think the branding backwards compatibility is misleading from microsoft. As you mentioned, it really is just an emulation of a few selected games you are allowed to download in a newer version. The console itself doesn't play the discs of each xbox 360 title you own. So if microsoft decides to shut down the backwards program or let you pay for it and move the whole catalog into a pricier Game Pass Tier, your Discs are pretty much worthless on that newer consoles. So the real deal is to still own and preserve an Xbox 360 console.
I get your point, but thus far in comparison to Nintendo Switch or PS5 it's the only console that plays 2 to 3 generations backwards using physical discs; they've also been on the open record indicating they are looking to preserve this going forward. It's not perfect but it's the best leader we have at this time and sets the bar for others
A few selected games.. Jedi academy Jedi Knight Republic commando Saints row 1-4& gat out of hell Avp Force unleashed 1&2 Oblivion Fallout 3 goty &new vegas Conker live and reloaded Gears of war 1-judgement Cod 2,3 ,4 ,waw mw2,mw3 black ops 1&2 Battlefield entries Psychonauts Battlefront 1&2 Morrow wind Left 4 dead 1&2 Crisis 1-3 Max Payne 1-3 Fear 2&3(one isn't really playable as the game was shat out on console) Fable 1-3 Batman arkham origins Crackdown 1&2 Army of 2 Bioshock 1-infinite Silent hill 2&3 homecoming and downpour. Kingdoms of amalur Final fantasy XIII ,2 ,lighting returns. Assassins creed 1-rogue Timeshift Gta 4(including dlc) Red dead redemption Medal of honor airborne Not really just a select few titles 😂
So many beauty games in that list too! It's definitely a great list, but I always hope to say it was "a good start" because I'm hopeful more are coming in the future 👍
Walmart Canada has a bundle right now that includes PS5 Slim Disc and a vertical stand or controller dock for $656. That makes the controller dock or vertical stand just $6.
That's what I've heard too, they can really flesh out the story in the fame versus a 1.5 hour movie. Thanks for watching this video, hopefully more backwards compatibility games ahead 😊👍
Sadly you'll never likely ever see racing games like PGR released on Backwards Compatibility because of all the licences related to those types of games. I'd love to play PGR2 and 3 again loved those games.
You may very well be correct; in addition to the licenses in shoelwcasing the various vehicle brands there are often music license etc that could further complicate things too 🤔
These feel like no-brainers - Microsoft literally owns the rights to these games! These should be in the first wave of upcoming backwards compatibility, in my humble opinion 😊
I know that Microsoft did their best to get a lot of these titles to be backwards compatible. I am sad to see the 360 store go, but I still boot up my 360 to play games stuck on the console. A random note since you mentioned the PS, I am excited that the Marvel VS Capcom collection is coming to the PS4. Dont quote me, but I heard the games are actually on disc. That is important to me since MvC2 is a rare and expensive game. I do own it on the xbox and the 360.
I still hope that they revisit the backwards compatibility program again in the future 🤞 The Marvel vs Capcom collection looks simply amazing, I'm very excited for it! I'm not sure if I'll pick it up for PS4 or Nintendo Switch 🤔
I played Superman Returns on the original Xbox and I LOVED it, I feel like they had the combat and powers handled pretty well. Incredible Hulk would also be a great addition too! Thanks for watching 😊 👍
So the saga of figuring out how I was going to get an XBox that has my music on it ended: My brother let me trade Xboxs, so now I can play games with the music I want. Also, I have a physical copy of MW3, but last time I put the disc in I was told I needed a 360 account to save the data. Do I have to do that anymore now?
Hey, glad it got a happy ending eventually 😅 For game saves many are using cloud saves so having an "Xbox Live" account (or whatever if is now) will allow you to dave to the cloud for free and pick up your progress on other consoles if necessary. You don't need a paid pass for this option
Love David Bateson!. ❤️ you are the number 01* HITMAN to me! Such a great character and thank you for everything sir!. I wish I could meet him. It's my all time favorite game growing up and World of Assassination trilogy. Seriously Thank you Bateson.
@randypiper7485 he's so great! Glad you enjoyed the panel. I have the good fortune of seeing him and Jane again in October at NostalgiaCon Toronto next 😊👍 If you're in the area you should go!
@SvennyMcG I played the game and shared it. If you're interested in a good series of HITMAN professionally, lol. Did my own thing with the trilogy. Loved it!. And did some amazing hits in it. David Bateson is Legendary teehee. Pip3rSSesH is the channel. Just did like a dedication to my vision of HITMAN. Every episode is great.👍 Start with S01 E01 and work your way up. If your a fan of the series, you'll like it.
@SvennyMcG Everybody I've seen playing it is always running around like a chicken with their heads cut off. Not natural. When I played it, I make it look like a movie. Smooth ride. My vision of the legendary 47 anyways. My hits*. ;)P
