Very nice. I own New Vegas with all of the expansions and I am Alive.
Fallout New Vegas digital store link: https://marketplace.xbox.com/en-GB/...acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802425307e0?noSplash=1
It's cheap. It is also indeed coming today.

Totally in for Comic Jumper. I never beat it and I remember it being okay.
DLC disc for Fallout 3 downloads both the base game and the DLCs. If you insert the game disc, it only downloads the base game.

Comic Jumper was probably my least favorite Twisted Pixel game to play, though I loved the humor of it. Never got very far in it. Glad to see another big batch of titles coming out this week. Fallout: NV should also get some people excited, but Fallout games just aren't my thing.

Also, Windows Central just posted an article about Metal Gear Rising. Basically, Platinum would love for the game to come out to Xbox One backwards compatibility, but it's up to Konami. Thankfully there's been at least two games I know of that Konami published that are backwards compatible and EvB has seen Metal Gear HD Collection being tested. So there's always hope.

I still haven't played Rising, so once that becomes backwards compatible I'll be picking it up.
Bought, thanks. It's 8,99€.
I know that website, but I somehow never look there for such deals. It's healthier for my wallet

I just remembered I bought comic jumper years ago, but only played a few stages due to my 360 dying. Yay, new game

It's possible we will hear about next months Games With Gold today or tomorrow. I would wait to buy any of today's BC announcements until then

Do you know this for certain?
I've only tried once and it didn't work for me which made feel sad.

not really, last thing we know about them is Phil Spencer revealing his intention to bring them in the near future.

I Am Alive still makes me mad to this day over what a huge disappointment it was

I don't have a XB1 yet, but I bought it there for $10 USD and redeemed the code online without issue just a few days ago.
Edit: Just reread the install comment. My bad. Great deal regardless!

Not really an Elders Scrolls Fan, but kudos to Bethseda. EA needs to help MS test these games out or let the preview members assist with testing out potential BC titles. Having over 2000 people playthorugh games and report errors would probably much faster than a hadnful that has to play each game to completion (including all mode variables and possble endings, pathways, etc).
Source? Today? Soon? Don't toy with me!

So does anybody know or have any speculation with regards to how multidisc games are getting sorted? Blue dragon was 3 discs but will you only need 1 disc to play it or will you still need all three with swapping mid game? Will there be 3 different blue dragon launchers one for disc 1 another for 2 etc. Or will they just create one digital compilation of the 3 discs that just requires you to have the 3 discs for the initial install and following that any disc in your xbox counts as discs1-3. Seems like if they compile it digitally you leave open the possiblity for a digital rerelease, which in my opinion would be great for games like blue dragon and lost odyssey which didnt sell great outta the gate but have since accumulated their own loyal fanbases which have been extremely vocal in the last few years.

my Xbox treats both discs from the ultimate edition as game discs.. can you not install the add-ons from the disc? if so that kinda stinks.
Nothing installs from disc, the disc is just license. After putting DLC disc in, go to manage game and look under ready to install.

okay, I get that. but with either disc in my Xbox the only thing that shows up ready to install is dead money which I bought when it came out.
Hmm, it's possible they haven't configured the discs properly.
Really surprised to see Comic Jumper added.
Don't get me wrong. I own and liked the game. But at the current rate, I wasn't sure how many more in my 360 collection were going to be BC.
Still waiting for:
Skate
Skate 2
Skate 3
Marble Blast Ultra
Ace Combat 6
Crackdown
Crackdown 2
Forza Horizon
Red Dead Redemption (and Undead Nightmare)
Saint's Row
Games that would be a nice bonus, but I don't think will happen:
Burnout Crash
MK vs DCU
Sonic Unleashed
Stuntman Ignition
Simpsons Game
Spider-Man Edge of Time
Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3
Condemned 2
Dante's Inferno
Midnight Club LA

While you are right and I encourage anyone to follow your advice since the PC version is a better experience, I just finished New Vegas and all expansions on PC and it is very crash-happy there as well. I was using the fan-made stability mods and they simply cause the game to crash less. I was averaging a crash every couple hours, probably. Save early, save often!
Isn't it suspected that there is some kind of legal dispute involving Rockstar and that's why all has been quiet on the Red Dead front?
Well, MS is a big company with many employees. It's hard to keep secrets. There are also a lot of people in the world that dislike them and want to torpedo them or at least hope they leave the games industry. I'm not surprised MS is more leaky than others, personally. Less loyalty in their ranks, as it were. If you're specifically referring to BC announcements, surely they know how ekim and others get this information. They probably don't care all that much.

Is it too much to ask for Rez, especially with Rez Infinite coming this fall?

Give me at least one of the splinter cell games 
And R*, please just patch RDR and officially release the BC version already, thanks lol
I didn't see problems with it while I played it. Sure, it was laggy.. But wasn't it always? Sure felt sub 20 fps back then when it first released on the 360
And yea, Splinter Cell

I do, as I have GOTY edition of Fallout 3. Will check NV, since I have Ultimate Edition.

I'd be happy to have Splinter Cell Blacklist bc as I haven't played that one so far.
The same goes for Metal Gear Rising.
Edit: I looked for Metal Gear Rising and I bought it new for ~6€. No matter if it becomes bc, I'll definitely play it in the near future.

Blacklist was the best Splinter Cell game last generation. Not Chaos Theory good but close enough. Only bad thing was Michael Ironside didnt voice Sam Fisher. Multiplayer was also very stable and enjoyable.

I think I have Comic Jumper. Was it ever given out for free?

Has anyone ever asked rockstar via email about bc? I know there pretty good at replying when you have issues with gta5
Okay. I deleted F3 and inserted the DLC disc -> Xbox downloaded both the game and the DLCs.
I inserted DLC disc from Fallout: New Vegas UE - it doesn't work. Disc 1 (the one containing the game) works, but it downloads the base game only. So no DLCs, at least for now. UK region.
EDIT: Restarted console once more and inserted DLC disc. It began to download all the F:NV DLCs.

How come all these other GOTY discs install the DLC but my copy of Star Wars Force Uneashed doesn't?
