Support NeoGAF

[Inuhanyou]

Don't toy with my emotions.

Since Team Ninja is never going to port black or the original 2 over to current gen, maybe this is the next best thing for xbox owners

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Imagine if they found a way to point Xbox Live for OG to Azure and we get multi back in OG games?

Mah lawd

 

[Thabass]

OG Xbox games with Jet Set Radio Future as the game they're announcing please.

Is that asking for too much?

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

you ever look at Major Nelson's mentions after he announces a new BC game. It's like 30 people asking about Blops 2, Skate 3 etc.

Fuck those guys

Spoiler

Skate 2 or 3 would be OK though

 

[timewyrm]

Original xbox support starting with KOTOR / KOTOR II this Xmas,followed by the announcement of KOTOR III releasing Xmas 2017 as an X1 console exclusive...

 

[KingBroly]

Just thought of something.

If it's 360 BC on PC, does that mean multiplayer would be free on PC for those titles?

 

[jmizzal]

NCAA Football or bust

 

[ForkNetwork]

Original Xbox support starting with Ninja Gaiden Black!

Is Ninja Gaiden Black really that good?

 

[HiiiLife]

If it's OG emulation and they put TimeSplitters 2 on there....

 

[ganaconda]

My guess would just be several of the top remaining games being added to 360 BC. Although the timing of it being the 15th anniversary of the OG Xbox is hard to overlook. It would be awesome if they somehow pulled that off.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Don't forget the Phantom Dust re release might be the clue into this.

 

[Sky Interloper]

I'd love for it to be 360 on PC, but I'm pretty sure that would need new contracts. So original Xbox BC would be great too, considering the state of emulation of that platform.

 

[Fisty]

What does Sony charge for their PS2 games, $14.99?

Microsoft should price the OG Xbox games at $3.99, then drop the mic. Free if you already own it on disc, of course.

Yep and like 6 people would buy them because they wouldn't have achievements

 

[Grisby]

Wish Sony cared this much about BC.

Yeah, Id like to play Resistance 3 on my ps4.

 

[Jasper Avenue]

OG Xbox games with achievements plz.

 

[B1gg_Randall]

I really gotta snatch up another XB1,man.

 

[Inuhanyou]

Yeah, Id like to play Resistance 3 on my ps4.

PS3 architecture is a non starter for PS4.

Is Ninja Gaiden Black really that good?

One of the best action games out there.

 

[Bizzquik]

If it ain't, you know, actual huge news....I hope Larry clarifies on Twitter that he was simply referring to a top-requested BC title.

One thing: Has Microsoft ever announced a Backward Compatibility title on a weekend? November 12th is a Saturday. Why the hell would you announce a BC game then? ....That makes me think this is more of a system-wide change rather than a BC offering. (i.e. Legit huge news.)

 

[Shrennin]

My guess is it's either OG Xbox BC, PC Windows Store BC for 360, or a general announcement that multi disk games have been solved and they will also be available digitally starting with Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey followed by Mass Effect 2 and 3.

 

[NullPointer]

Yeah, Id like to play Resistance 3 on my ps4.

Resistance 3, smooth as silk and without jaggies would be a dream.

 

[Elixist]

Is Ninja Gaiden Black really that good?

its dam good. if the game stayed with the classic japan (asian architecture) theme more i'd call it a masterpiece, but factories and shit is not where i want to get my ninja on.

Xbox Fanfest in Mexico. Phil is doing a live streamed briefing there but that is happening on the Friday (11th). My guess Major Nelson is mentioning the 12th because he is in Australia.

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

Yep and like 6 people would buy them because they wouldn't have achievements

lol no

Burnout Takedown doesn't need any achievements to get people to buy it all over again.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Yep and like 6 people would buy them because they wouldn't have achievements

I'd rather they DIDNT have achievements. I say this as an achievement whore too.

 

[Crooked16th]

Full Xbox 360 disc catalogue support.

 

[10k]

PC support would be amazing!

Please be PC support. I'd be so happy

You two are my friends now.

 

[spk]

Is there any reason to believe PC BC could actually happen?

 

[statham]

I'm hoping for ME 2&3

Is there any reason to believe PC BC could actually happen?

No.

 

[theRizzle]

maybe Sunset Riders will finally come out

 

[lightskintwin]

I think some of ya'll are overhyping yourselves for disappointment. LOL

 

[big_z]

Unless Cathrine is added the announcement will be a disappointment.

 

[FStop7]

Were there rumors about 360 BC coming to Windows 10?

 

[bill0527]

Original Xbox support starting with Ninja Gaiden Black!

 

[Brad Grenz]

Is there any reason to believe PC BC could actually happen?

If they can get 360 games running in a VM on Xbox One hardware there's no reason to believe the same would not be possible on a more powerful Windows PC. And expanding 360 BC to Win10 would go along with their "Play Anywhere" strategy. I'll mostly be interested to see if they require DX12 or not. I'm still stuck with an HD 6950.

 

[StoopKid]

OG Xbox games with Jet Set Radio Future as the game they're announcing please.

[Loxley]

I would be THRILLED if it ended up being OG Xbox BC.

 

[Zabka]

Is Ninja Gaiden Black really that good?

It's amazing and it just feels so damn good to run around in the game. The sequels never reached the same level of polish and design.

I'd also do terrible things to get SSX3 on BC. I found doing full mountain runs very relaxing.

 

[BoxManLocke]

OG Xbox Support. Shenmue 2. Do what Sega won't, I'm begging you.

 

[Electret]

Another vote of desire for OG Xbox games here.

Is it remotely realistic to expect new OG Xbox to be made available digitally? I saw the list posted earlier regarding what is available. There's some good ones but in total the offerings are pretty limited.

 

[Dinky Dino]

Were there rumors about 360 BC coming to Windows 10?

Not really no. Phil did say this in 2015.

[Xbox games on Xbox One is] something I want to do, but it is a matter of priority. I would love to have the ability to play Xbox 360 on PC at some point too, so we have different things we have to think about when we plan these things. But it would be great to have support for original Xbox games. So yes, I want it, but we have many other things we want to do as well.

 

[Lord of Ostia]

Tales of Vesperia would be nice. It would complete my 360 JRPG trifecta

 

[Saucycarpdog]

Modern Warfare 2 BC

Come on!!!!!

 

[TheSeks]

PC support would be amazing!

Original Xbox support is my guess.

Either of these would be fine. Preferably, both.

 

[deadscreensky]

I know it's not going to be emulator support for PC, but I'd love for it to be emulator support for PC.

 

[Chobel]

With Red Dead BC, and Skryrim having a remaster. Seems like the biggest titles are already accounted for. Like the current top 20 games are really rather redundant at this point. Bolded games that are BC now or Remastered. Can see any of the games here being worth hyping up a huge announcement.

Black Ops 2
Skyrim - Remastered
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
Mass Effect 3
GTA IV
Mass Effect 2
Batman: Arkham City
BioShock Infinite
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Assassin's Creed III
Battlefield 3
Batman: Arkham Asylum
GTA V
Oblivion
Halo 4
Halo 3
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood
BioShock




Digital Releases of multi-disc games would probably be able to count as a "huge" announcement.

The only thing that could be "huge" if it's really just a bunch of games, is BC for all CoD games.

 

[Apoleptica]

I want to play Crimson Skies and Mechassault on xbl again, please.

 

[Head.spawn]

Original Xbox support is my guess.

Ninja Gaiden Black pls!
Crmson Skies!
Otogi!?

 

[Mcdohl]

I have a feeling it's not going to be that big of an announcement. Maybe something like 15 titles added to BC!

And only 1 or 2 of those GAF will actually care about.

 

[Backfoggen]

It's likely just more games. My dream would be if they figured out how to run the games at higher res. They have to test them all anyways.

 

[Bastos]

Original Xbox support is my guess.

I'd lose my shit here.

Just want NG Black, Panzer Dragoon Orta and Otogi 1/2.

Any other must play Xbox exclusives? Never had an original Xbox
