Rock star just announced it on their official Facebook.

Game over, cows, you just got rekt. One of the best games of last generation now playable on Xbone and a superior version at that, as opposed to your lousy less than 600p sub-HD stuttering mess with inferior antialiasing.

Its coming to the PS4(someday), you just have to repurchase it. :)

Meanwhile cows...

Cool. I'll download it again, then.

WORK YA DAMN NAG

Moreover, undead nightmare and the game of the year edition are also compatible.

@Salt_The_Fries: Good. I have that. It's funny. Yes, I quite like Phil. I wish he was my uncle who brought the bantz at Christmas. But he isn't. That's not great.

Well, damn. Now I have to buy an XBone!

Severely disliked this game's controls on console. The auto aim made the game too easy, and it was stupid hard without it.

Wish they'd bring it to PC so I could actually finish it. I gave up on it after I got to Mexico.

LMFAO

excited for a last gen game.. omg xbox players are f**king hilarious... well have fun with your old games.. LOL

lems hailing this as a megaton? Guess you guys don't have much to cling on to since exclusive doesn't exist n Xbox anymore.

I don't think this is a megaton dude LOL, nice announcement but this isn't going to shift units for the Xbox, you reaching.

THE XBOX IS SAVED! All the nonbelievers, WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW?!

Well looks like im picking up the game on xbl summer sale now. However im more excited for The Warriors Remaster although bummed its only available on Ps4. Any scuttlebutt about this remaster making its way to xbox one?

Well you had to turn these good news into shitty fanboyism didn't you.

Oh no, you di'int! Glorious XBox Master Race doesn't believe in paying for ports. You will take your backwards compatibility and you WILL LIKE IT. You hear me? I know, I know. You're probably thinking, "Wasn't a last-gen port bonanza of Halo like literally the holiday bombshell for the XBox One in 2014?" but you just.... Oh, look, shiney!

Yeah baby!

Friendly reminder the Playstation platform has no genre it excels at.

All flash, no substance. Thanks for bringing greatness to all, Phil Spencer.

Yeah, it doesn't even have any 10-rated exclusives...

waaaaaait a minute..

@Shewgenja: video game journalists hate their job, meaning they hate gameplay.

Good on Naughty Dog. They know.

Im actually more excited about this than RDR. I still have my 360 so i can play RDR there but The Warriors was never made BC with 360 and i wanted to play it so bad. Going to download now!

@Kruiz_Bathory: Lol wtf. You have to be utterly deranged if you think I hada literal boner over this.

Well, color me deranged.

It always annoyed me I never finished it last Gen, I was like midway through ....loved the game, my lazy ass will find it easier to just play it on XOne.

But for me what's cool is we might also get LA Noire and Bully. I never played Bully and got I a few months ago for 3$. And LA Noire I am missing a few missions I think to finish so I hope they bring that too soon

Lem circle jerk inbound...

Anyway, I can't wait to play it again.

@Shewgenja: I will stray and cross the tracks if i must to play this glorious remaster if ye shall not be released on xbox one. I can hear whats his face clicking the bottles in my head "bigbadbully come out and playeeee-a". And the SJW's will love the The Lizzies!

Saying this is a megaton seems like one hell of a stretch, but I'm sure this is great news for some.

I can play a 6y old game? Wow. Sick reason to grab myself a Bone. brb ordering one right about now. Cannot wait to play a game i've beaten and played to death IN 2010.

I already own the game on PS3 and I would've prefer a remastering RDR then just a simple Xbox One BC. And I'm not gonna bother asking for PC version cause Rockstars made it clear there's no PC version in the works.

Like the TC, some of us are not native English speakers.

Although we may not know what words mean, I'm sure this is what is considered quite the "megaton".

Anyways, good for those that were salivating to play the 2010 multiplat. I'm sure it was an easier decision once Rockstar realized it was already up and running months ago and it would require almost no extra $$$/work to let it release.

Pretty sure they should also check the meaning of "tongue in cheek", "irony" and "sarcasm" .... ;)

Ah, that would describe my post then. :P

Awesome for those that haven't played it or want to replay it.

Look at the butthurt pony fanboy! lol

Good observation. I supposed expecting an XBox 360 to still work is truly expecting a bit much.

Mine works fine. I just imagine if you have an Xbone you don't wanna plug in your 360. Hopefully it'll run better on the new hardware, too.

@Salt_The_Fries:

This so much.

You could either have auto aim, which made the game less enjoyable. Or you could go free aim, which made the game impossible to play.

I loved undead nightmare (what's not to like about an open world stuffed with zombies). But it was unplayable for me on a Dualshock 3 because the zombies could only be killed by headshotting them... It wasn't doable even after a dozen hours or so of trying.

Maybe the game will be a bit more playable on a Xbone controller ?

Don't ever expect a PC version though :(

I hope the delay was to get it to a playable performance standard. Something tells me they'll milk the digital sales from BC before announcing a remaster and PC release.

Huh?

Poor upset uber X fan Xhawk. I made a joke for the TC, and then said this BC move was good (I owned an Xbone before you)...

Look at the illiterate, offtopic, butthurt, sour-lemon Xbot! lol

You struggle with English, and when you don't understand what you read, you get fanboy auto-triggered, lmao.

Next step: Play anywhere this badboy onto PC! And reveal the sequl ffs.

am sorry how can some one spin this as a negative. typicaly bitter narrow mindedness Sony kids

I have it on PlayStation 3, this is cool but meh.

Ditto.

Great news for Xbox owners, but this is not a megaton. Good on R* and MS.

@Salt_The_Fries: well, going by the "Megaton" you threw in the title I'd say you had a discharge of fluids once you saw the news. You couldn't help it, I know.

Red Dead will be playable on PS4 too once it gets added to PSNow. #GreatmessAwaits

I can imagine the TC writing the post with a red head and tears in his eyes, screaming something about cows at the screen and his mother wondering what's going on in the basement. I know that I won't be able to sleep tonight because that megaton rocked my socks off.

Oh, and shame on you for making me think again about one of the most anti-climatic endings in gaming history. "The game is getting interesting. Here, herd cattle for an hour now!" Multiplayer was surprisingly fun for a while though.

You know your console of choice is fu** when you need to bring a backward compatible game and add it as some kind of ammo...lol

But when your platform has no exclusives any more is ok to hype multiplatforms..lol

How is this a megaton? If you have to resort to a backwards compatible Red Dead Redemption as a megaton, your system of choice is seriously in dire straits

THIS IS HUGE!

PC doesn't even have this game AND PS4 doesn't either!

This is huge if you have PC and PS4 you literally can't even play this game you need something else going on.
