Backwards Compatibility

There was a surprising amount of people playing 1943 last night. I still really enjoyed it. One thing you have to remember is that this was a $15 arcade game. Given that, I think it's aged pretty well.
 
Evil Boris at Resetera posted a list of titles he's seen in BC testing. He doesn't have the "verafied" tag, but Zhuge has given him the go-ahead to post, so he has some credibility. I believe he has posted lists in the past that have turned out to be accurate. Remember that these are just titles in testing, not necessarily titles scheduled for release.

Anyhow, here's his list:

Ace Combat 6
Adventure Time: Secret (2014)

Alien Breed Episode 1

I'd be up for Tomb Raider: Legend, if it were X-enhanced. I enjoyed that. Possibly Kingdoms of Amalur, too, if it were enhanced. Never played that one. Maybe Max Payne 3, if it were enhanced. Never played that one either, though I didn't like what I saw of it.
 
I want Kingdoms of Amalur (I never finished it on 360), Skate 2 (my favorite in the series), Sacred 2 (was a great game), and Crysis 2 (never got around to playing it). I have them all digital.

Good list. Also waiting for Eternal Sonata, Hitman silent assassin, contracts, dead to rights retribution and The Saboteur as well as a lot of digital only titles.
 
Thank god for GRAW, just need GRAW 2 as well. 2 of my fav games last gen.
 
Thanks guys for all the BC updates and prospects(Andy).

I own so many of these titles on disk that I still haven’t had time to play. BC feature has been great.

Now for my request, I want Burnout 3! (Revenge is fun)
 
BC team is getting closer to hitting the biggest games. Once they hit them all, wonder if they’ll move on to focus on BC enhancements.

MAX Payne 3 was awesome but for the unskippable cutscenes. I'd rather have a Crysis Orange Box type situation with higher settings for the new consoles.
 
There's a list posted on Era with upcoming BC games from a "source." Not sure how reliable it was but I did see Max Payne 3 on it. I'm surprised that hasn't all ready been released. One of my favorites of last gen. Played and completes it at least six times.
 
I found out after posting i looked on my account and couldn't find it.

So i looked into it and found out about the licensing.

Outrun Online was amazing on the 360....
 
Still surprised Mortal Kombat 9 isn't BC yet.

Also I was thinking of giving Alan Wake a try but it says it's not available in my region for some reason even though the DLC is.
