Xbox One Backwards Compatibility Thread: Everyone wants it, no one uses it

Why the hell is Saints Row IV Backwards Compatible and yet the original 2006 Saints Row is not??? That is just shameful thinking...to put a remastered port and BC the worst Saints Row in the series...WOW

Last convo we had, you didn't even know Daytona USA was an arcade game (or if you'd even seen/played it before).

There really needs to be some sort of entrance exam before you're allowed to post on GAF.

Stop the planet, I want to get off.

I'm guessing it's a problem with the music licensing for the original game. I have no source or anything, just seems like a plausible explanation. Licensing deals back then were often shortsighted.
 
Praying for something good today.

Tales of vesperia, ninja gaiden 2, dragon age origins, vanquish, crackdown, nier, or metal gear rising would be nice.

Just one of those would make me very happy.

Also the original Saints Row was terribly buggy any that might make emulation really difficult.It might be really expensive to determine if a glitch is from the game or from the emulation.
 
I'm pro at Sega Rally 2. One day when it's rereleased I'll show receipts.

And I only suck at Revo because that's the only thing you can do in a trash game with a difficulty spike immediately out the god damn menu.

Surely damn near every game has a difficulty spike immediately after the menu? Menus are easy!

Okay, Dragon's Lair SNES password entry screen aside
 
The rough pattern seems to be one day a few titles nobody's really asking for and the next day a decent title as a stand alone release. I'm expecting a couple of arcade games today, not expecting anything good.
 
First opportunity for a December drop I can't believe there's nothing especially as a load of my 360 installed titles took updates overnight and this morning.
 
This is what I really want of whats left...

Aliens Vs Predator
Far Cry 3 2 1 classic predator
Aliens Colonial Marines (maybe the only person)
Battlefield 3 bc 1&2

Ghost recon aw1 and 2, future soldier
geometry wars 2
