Backward Compatible

RabidCheetah · 06-11-2005, 02:55 PM

How will we know which games are backwards compatible. Will there be a list?
I don't want to do trial and error and possibly break my 360.

You won't break your 360 if you put a game in that is not compatible,you could stick a PS2 game in and all it will tell you that it's not compatible.

MS is suppose to release a BC list very soon! We're all still waiting. The only confirmations so far are the Halo's. Personally these are the only titles I'm concerned about.

I thought there were rumors that virtually all titles will be compatible. Hopefully they release the list before 11/22.

As long as I can play the Grand Theft Autos, the Knights of the Old Republic, and the Halos I think I'll be fine in all areas.

I hope most of my games are backward compatible. They should be, there kind of popular.

Fable: The Lost Chapters and Ninja Gaiden: Black

Hope they are okay.

Would have bought them for my xbox, but its been sold to pay for 360.

Any of the games that were "Platinum Hits", which were quite a few, will be compatible from the get go.

Microsoft are probably still working on the list. If the worst comes to worst, just trade in your Xbox and keep Shenmue until it eventually becomes backwards-compatable.

I didn't think you liked Shenmue anyway

i got bored through it, but its a classic game that i may want to go back to

I really want to play SH2 and Fatal Frame 2, I hope they work.

As long as it plays PES5 I will be a happy man.

What has been confirmed are that all games made by Microsoft Game Studios will be BC, and Bungie had a news release the other day about Halo and Halo 2.
And of course, if you don't have the Hard Drive, no BC for you.

Superior Grant · 11-11-2005, 01:01 PM

games i want/need to be b/c:

Far Cry Instincts
Pro Evolution 5
Doom 3 & 3 ressurection
Shenmue 2
Crazy Taxi High roller
Conker
Half Life 2

the other games im trading in - some games there i havent completed or even played much, some im keeping for sentiment
i can deal with shenmue and Crazy taxi not being bc for a while, but eventually id like to, otherwise ill buy a cheap xbox in years.
