Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Crackdown 2 is all but certain in the run up to Crackdown 3 - it's only a matter of time.
Personally I'm hoping for Kingdoms of Amular (since I ended up picking it up for $5), LEGO LotR, or Tales of Vesperia. Feels like Vesperia is never going to happen though for whatever reason.

Ugh, wrong Ghost Recon to do. Give me GRAW 1 & 2 and I'll be happy.

Maybe they just wanted to hold something back for this Thurs so we get a solid week of content drop overall haha

Maybe a port of a PSP game is easier to get working than ports of PS2 games? I mean...

Peacewalker was released on PS3 as well., the HD version, end of the day no excuses....MGS2 if anything is more highly regarded than peace-walker...on another note if Microsoft brought Panzer Dragoon, and Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks, to the XBOX- OG - XBOX1 compatibility table that would be awesome....!!!!

I... what? What does it being on PS3 have to do with anything? Peace Walker HD is a port of a PSP game. I'm sure it took very little actual effort to make that version of the game and it can probably run on far lesser specs than its release systems, so I will say it again:

Just bought GR Future Soldier. I never played it back in the day; I'm looking forward to checking it out. I loved the first two. The day they make it over to the BC list will be a good day indeed

Haha definitely. I had a group of guys I'd regularly play with so I didn't have to deal too much with randoms screwing everything up. But the maps, weapons and abilities, and core movement/shooting were just really solid in that game. The singleplayer DLC was also quite good.

Outside of some peculiar inclusions (MG Peace Walker), I think this year has seen some top notch games get released.
Some standouts for me this year:
Mafia 2
Vanquish
Hitman: Blood Money
Spec Ops The Line
Splinter Cell Conviction
Darkness II
Prey
Split/Second
Really hoping Microsoft will add:
Max Payne 3
Modern Warfare 2 and 3
Ninja Gaiden 2
Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge
Warhammer Space Marine
Binary Domain
Mortal Kombat
DC vs. MK
WWE 2K14 (Outstanding 30 Years of Wrestlemania mode)
UFC 3 (Probably not going to happen but the inclusion of Pride was awesome)

Playing through it now on the XB1, do have to wonder why this is was ranked like the 2nd or 3rd best MGS game in the series. I'll definitely plan on finishing it, just probably need to be patient and wait for the story to unfold.
Have to remember it did release on PSP so the cinematic lore I'm used to isn't as prevalent so far.

I feel like once per week is going to be the norm now.

I'm okay with that as long as the quality of the releases continues to be top notch. Doubly-so if we get some X Enhanced BC games and OG Xbox BC games sprinkled in every now and again.

I hope so. I like the games just the way they are, no need to re-master them. What drives me nuts about each Call of Duty release is that every iteration has different features. Zombies seems to be consistent, but it drives me nuts that Spec Ops and Survival aren't permanent fixtures. That is why many of us are begging for MW 2 and MW3 to be added. I am sure now that the Xbox One X can enhance the resolution of the game they could probably update all the previous CODs to run at a native high definition resolution.

We definitely need more 4k 360 releases:
Doom 3 - Res bump would be great plus original Dooms in 4k? Yes please! (Native 720p)
Borderlands - One of the first BC games, I play this way too much. (targeted 720p?)
Ninja Gaiden II. Really low resolution, def needs a bump. (1120X585)
Quake 4/Quake II - Horrible performance in Quake 4/Native 1080 on Quake II port.

Yes please!
Also, I was looking at the BC list and was really blown away at the number of titles I can play from the 360 gen.

So great!

As for OG games:
Kingdom Under Fire/Heroes - Real time strategy and hack and slash glory. This is my #1. It is weird that the long awaited KUF II has become an MMO and is rumored for a PS4 release when the older games were on Xbox. Could be real tricky to bring these over but I remain hopeful.
Total Overdose - Crazy 3rd person, bullet time Mexican shoot-em up. Native 720P on OG Xbox.
Freedom Fighters - Another native 720P OG game. Incredible soundtrack.
Matrix: Path of Neo - Prob my #2 because of the insane fighting system. Movie licence game though. Here's hoping.
and...
Metal Arms: Glitch in the System. Great 3rd person shooter/platformer.

It doesn't look like it, sadly. Hopefully they'll make up for it next week.

All four games in the PGR series are on top of my BC wishlist. They can't come soon enough! If we get a ~4k update for any one of them I'll lose my bananas.

Seems like releases are Tuesday only now, and my guess is they didn't want to announce anything else on Sea of Thieves release day. Here's hoping for a bigger drop next week!
Long time lurker on this thread, but first post, so here's my wish list:
Lollipop Chainsaw
NFS: Hot Pursuit
Saints Row 1 & 2
Red Faction: Guerilla
The Simpsons Arcade
BC would really help motivate me to go back to those games.

Hoping we get some things that weren't already Xbox 360 compatible, stuff like Otogi, Crazy Taxi 3 and GUNVALKYRIE would be amazing. Everything so far was already compatible on 360. I'll take whatever they come out with though as the Xbox One emulator is much better than the emulator they used in the previous generation.
3 of the 4 DOA games had licensed music on Xbox. DOAXBV had the most licensed music of them all. Still hoping they can all somehow make it...

YBH, for pure emulation/BC purposes, this shouldn't matter. It would literally just be a matter of not selling digital copies or selling altered copies without the music if they didn't relicense.

Ask me about my fanboy energy!
Hope they add Double Agent and possibly the OG Xbox Splinter Cell games. On another note I wish all OG/360 Prince of Persia games are in their plans.

Knowing the game is Xbox One X enhanced, I bought it. Will definitely play it in the near future.
There is also Catherine, for those who haven't bought the game yet. Fantastic game.

Did anyone else get an update to Mass Effect a few weeks back? I did and was wondering if they improved it any? Been thinking about starting a new Femshep and I like the 360 versions better than the PC and PS3.
