Poll Do lemmings justify backwards compatibility because they have no exclusives? (72 votes)

Of course. No exclusives = play old games. 49%
Yes, but for good reason. It's a plus for gamers. 29%
Don't know 4%
Maybe 10%
Other 8%

Seriously, never before have I seen such a desperation to play old games from a decade ago like this generation of lemmings. Most PS4 gamers don't care, because they are busy playing groundbreaking experiences like Horizon and God of own.

Instead of flops like Flop of Thieves.

My biggest gripe with Lemmings is how the pretend that Cows actually care about such a feature.

I am a playstation fan and even I am jealous of xbone backwards compatibility. Just imagine the amount of exclusive ps1-ps2-ps3 has! I mean ps2 alone have over 4k games. That is a lot of games and many are exclusive only to ps2.

Really want to play drakengard on ps2...

That said. Its not a system seller. Sure its great to play old games but if u want to play those game just get a 360.

Having BC is awesome, but if its that is only the sole reason to own a xbox 360 emulator due to no good games for this gen, then yah that is bad .

Its the sole reason for you but its objectively isn't the sole reason to own an Xbox One but you know that. :)

LOL you're so right. the sole purpose to own a XBOx 1 is to play games at 12fps.

I mean, I would love backwards compatibility, because that means I don't have to have my other consoles plugged in.

And the game has been patched multiple times since December 2017, but hey we know why you don't use current footage as it doesn't fit your agenda, oh and is still getting updates. Where as this is out and will never be patched, enjoy lol.

Lol I guess the Lems were right about the life of Black Tiger, in which it looks just like State of Decay 2 graphics and animation.

True and it's sad because Black Tiger is just some indie game Sony had no involvement with while SoD2 is a MS published and funded game and still looks just as bad.

Sony could come and say here we have backward compatibility from now on and on that exact moment BC will stop mattering to lemmings,who by the way care 2 shits about BC last gen 5 years into the generation,or when the PS2 was totally BC with the PS1 and the xbox with nothing.

Start putting spaces in between your commas and periods.

NO silly lemming. :)

I think you need to check on the resolution these BC games actually run at.

With my backlog of Xbox exclusives that I am playing, I don't even bother with BC.

Which exclusives? Because I'm playing most on my pc.

I am a console gamer, not a PC gamer. So right now I am still busy playing Sea of Thieves, State of Decay 2 and Recore at the moment. Just finished the full campaign of Forza 7 as well. I can't play those games on my PS Pro.

That's your problem then, don't know how you can call yourself a gamer. I'm an inclusive gamer. 3DS, PS4, WiiU (soon to get switch) and PC. Shame.

so you need 4 systems to justify hating on the xbox

Why would you need to "justify" BC? Its a convenience, it's a plus and the additional bump on certain titles with resolution and/or performance is very welcome.

If Sony came out tomorrow and said they're making a load of PS2 onward games BC, with select titles getting res and performance bumps, great that'd be sweet, first things first I'd bust out the old Ace combat games, and be a very happy gamer.

I certainly haven't got anything against the feature, it's what the PC is all about after all. However, MS and the fans over sell the feature like it's the best thing in the world and they try to use it against other systems.

This is what is annoying. No one cares. I've said this for ages, it's a nice cherry on top for consoles, but that's it.

When a console comes out, the manufacturer uses BC for the first year or so, to keep people good while the new library builds up. But since MS dumped exclusives, none of the fans or MS ever stfu about it. I'm happy for them, good, go, play the games, but NO ONE cares.

Actually MS and it's fan aren't the ones that constantly bring it up...cows do. Thread after thread after thread trying to bash a free feature that can be seen as nothing but good. You got it backwards amigo

@xantufrog: They don't need to "justify" backwards compatibility. It's objectively a good thing for consumers. It's one of the best parts about PC gaming. I think people focus too much on graphical horsepower debates when it comes to PC vs consoles.

Now, Lems may talk it up more than they use it, and/or bring it up to "fluff out" their library numbers when sparring with cows. That's possible. But it's a legit pro for the XBox platform in my opinion"

Agreed. Do i use it? Sure. Overwhelmingly? No. Cows use anything in list wars like MLB SHOW and then turn around and say "sports games LOL when multiplat ones are brought up)

I play video games. They come from any company, exclusive or not. I do not need to justify what i spend my money on. It's mine, i earn it and do as i please with it. MS is working on their time frame building the platform and services they wish to. TC wants to play their games on PC? Knock yourself out guy. You're running W10 and an Xbox app in order to do so. In the end this corporation wants that. Cling to your little definitions. It obviously doesn't bother them

Systems need as many good games as possible. BC adds to the good games of Xbone. It is a brilliant feature. It was brilliant on PS2 and brilliant on Wii/WiiU.

You just despise Xbox.

Hahaha that's funny because I'll see cows bash lems for wanting to play "old games" but those same cows are looking forward to Medieval being remastered and everything else that has been remastered like Crash, Spyro, Shadow of Colossus, etc.

Me personally, I love remasters and playing old games; sure the new games are great but sometimes I like to go back and spend some time playing a game I use to love to play when I was younger. I'm still waiting for a damn Warcraft III remaster...lol.

Sorry El tormented but you've been absent. It isn't lems that constantly bring up BC....it's you cows that do. Day in and day out, thread after thread bashing a free feature for nothing other than the PS4 doesn't have it without having to pay a fee. It's called hating MS more than you love your own console. Why are you even responding, I highly doubt you even understood what was written.

Oh and that's also the time you cows with call it greatest feature ever, right? It's already started el tormented. Thanks for reminding me what hypocrites you cows are.

What's wrong playing old XBox games that gamers are catching up on their Xbox one?
