@creepshow2: Ha, your like me. I pay for online service & get free games on my XB1x, and reap all my precious XB360 backwards compatible games and awesome multiplayer games. MS won me over for their BC after I had scorned them for their idiotic DRM at the beginning of the gen. console wars. I have 2x PS4's, but I only use them for exclusives & quite honestly I get bored of them really quickly, as online multi-player is where it is at on my XB1x with some gorgeous grfx.
Wut? Heavy Rain & Beyond: Two Souls Collection were $16 during the XMas sale, do they think we r idiots? They just lost a sale, gonna just play them on my PS3 & never buy it on the PS4 now as it ticks me off. Let your money do the talking, or lack there of.
Who in their right mind would buy this. I own both PS4 & XB1x, and because of backwards compatibility & better grafx on some games I chose to stick with MS. I now only play PS4 exclusives on their system & tend to get bored of them really quickly. BUT, this is the most idiotic purchase ever, when someone can go to GameStop & buy a reg. XB for $150 and just add a 4TB HD for another $80 & STILL have a disc drive to play older cheaper used games. Why would anyone want to shoot themselves in the foot like this, and this makes no sense. One can also pickup a used XB on Ebay for ~$200 and at times with games & even extra controllers. Most of my games are digital now and I don't mind that, unless they make it hard for me to play them for years to come (off-line & campaign games). The price is the issue compared with what you can get on the current market. I am betting on another flop for the XB, SAD indeed. And they better get to work on more backwards compatible games since PS5 will have backwards compatibility & if they make PS1-PS4 BC, then it is good by XB & MS, I will switch over quickly!!!! I have not given a penny to streaming, but only if I want to check out games for a month or two I might consider it.
@Sevenizz: No RR6 on the newer consoles stings as it is sorely missed and I played that heavily. My guess is that we will see a RR8 for the new gen consoles in 2020 & it will be like old times as launch titles.
Any game added to the BC is a win for all. Many have asked for MechAssault series to be brought back for years now, looks like they don't care? I would love Ridge Racer 6, Alien Colonial Marines, Termination salvation, Fear 1,2, & 3, Hawx 1&2, Blur, Spyro: The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon. MS has been doing great with BC & they won me back because of it, but they better get their acts together because if the PS5 becomes all BC with PS1-4 then I may have to switch & it will be game over for them!
And other ones that will probably never see the light of day again:
@Bread_or_Decide: Beyond mad, irritated & annoyed, just keeping it civil though. I honestly don't understand why people keep buying into this nonsense & when it is over, they will just have to buy it all over again when the Switch 2 comes out. Makes no sense.
Fun arcade games have been missing or don't meet standards this gen. ,So any arcade racer is a welcome, especially TSR. I had high hopes for Xenon Racer, but people are reporting all over about the horrible controls. When is my beloved new Ridge Racer coming out, if ever?
About time cheap Nintendo offers some deal. The cringiest company, making their customers pay for the same games over & over & over again, while always having the under powered system.
R U Kidding me? I wanted "Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon" for the longest and waited forever for it to go on sale. Then in April I finally decided to buy it after all these years and this month it is out for free and the only one worth playing on the list for me.
