Hey all,

So with the Backwards Compatibility update due to hit this year (I think next month?), I was curious as to what games you hope will make the first wave that you can play?

Personally I am hoping:

1). SSX - This game was pretty cool if memory serves me well but I did not really give it much time when it came out. I would not mind giving this another whirl. Things could be.... tricky if not (badum tish)

2). Red Dead Redemption - assuming the DLC will be included if you bought it, I have not really played any of the Halloween themed DLC and hopefully with it being on the backwards compatibility list (hopefully), others I know may pick it up then we can do some co-op.

3). Mass Effect 3 - finished the second game and loved it, got the third game then got put off with all the hate it was getting. I want to give this another chance just to experience more of a really good space RPG game.

There are others (Burnout for instance) but I want to hear what you think before I list more. Anything you feel you really want to go back to or hope is on the list so others may try it for the first time?

To be honest I'm not really a fan of them coming out screaming BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY when they'll probably only have a few key titles and loads of indies available soon. I feel like their strategically only going to give us what's popular and in high demand, but will miss out on loads of mid-tier games that were made before 2010 (you know, the 'bulk' of the system), so I'll evitably have to keep ahold of a spare 360 for the road. A nice attempt to gain back customer trust, but not for collectors such as myself. Will they even play at 1:1 quality with no hit in graphics/performance? I heard their supposed to scale some games but I dunno..when you don't run it native sometime it ends up screwy. But I could be wrong so I'll reserve my judgement for now.

SSX and Red Dead Redemption sound nice.

Rockstar and Konami are part of the list of publishers that are not signed up with BC. :(

I actually am not hoping to play any BC on my Xbone since I still play my 360s.

To be honest, I don't want to wear and tear my modern generation Xbone playing older last gen emulated (sometimes roughly, as emulated games see hits in graphics/performance) 360 games.

Before I'm quoted, I will say that I felt the same way about BC on the 360 last gen (360 was 50%-ish BC with Xbox 1 OG). I felt the same way about other console BC as well (PS2, Atari, Genesis, Wii, PS3, Wii U, etc) in the decades past.

I buy these new machines to really check out the new experiences that are afforded to new hardware. To each their own of course.

The main ones I want (but I'm not holding my breath) are Orange Box, Red Dead Redemption, Mass Effect Trilogy, Bioshock 1 & Infinite.

I'd like to keep working on my 360 backlog when possible. Read Dead Redemption and LA Noire(some of my favorites, and for some reason I didn't finish them), and Lords of Shadow 2. I'm sure there is a lot more but those would be my top 3, hopefully they make it to the BC list.

I played Mass Effect 1 during the preview period, so I'm hoping ME2 & 3 are included. After that I'd probably have to say Bioshock: Infinite tops my list, one of the few AAA's on the 360 that I never had the time to play. Wouldn't mind seeing some cult hits like Deadly Premonition and Defiance as well.

@robdacool: NV was amazing, the only problem it had for me was the numerous bugs at launch.

I'm glad they've got the first Mass Effect and Fallout 3 on the list, but I'm hoping to play the other Mass Effect games and New Vegas at some point, as well.

I would like some of the xbox live Arcade titles: Deathspank Series, Renegade Ops, and Burnout Crash. Then: Burnout series, Red Dead Revolver, Battlestations, LA Noire, SSX, Left For Dead Series, Crackdown Series, Mass Effect 3.

Just pumped to add more games to my xbox one library and play some games I missed out on.
