April update - Xbox 360 Backwards compatible list - A SAD SIGHT!

Check it out, what's your input on this matter.  Pretty sad update if you ask me.  Where's Project Snowblind, Deus Ex: Invisible War, Elder's Scrolls 3, etc. etc. etc.

ZOMFG!!!! They finally updated Panzer Dragoon Orta.  That is something to celebrate. 

Are you kidding?  JSRF, Panzer Dragoon Orta, RTCW, Republic Commando, Mercenaries, UC2, Breakdown... all in one swoop.

That's pretty good 

they released countless BC updates and yet people keep complaining every f^#%*%^ time. Muhannad_basic

whats sad about it?  they didnt even have to update it, but they did and you still b1tch at it.  be happy for someting extra for free that you had to do nothing for.jeffrow925

 Had to do nothing for?  What about check their stupid website everyday for the update for the past 135 days?  Waste my time.  My time isn't free mo-fo.  I'd be happy if they'd just SAY which ones they are working on next and give an approximate completion date.  Why do they have to keep the upcoming titles in the dark?  Because they want the website traffic and morons like me to keep checking back with them.

Xbox 360 owners owe it to themselves to buy Phantom Dust (awesome and competitive online) and Panzer Dragoon Orta. Two of the best xbox games yet unfairly overlooked.

I had to do nothing for them to release an update?  Myself along with millions of others bought their product - think that counts for something.  I could've sworn there was an article prior to 360's release that said, "Every Xbox game will be BC within 1 year of 360's release.  Why is it that all PS and PS2 games are bc with PS3, but Microsoft can't do their complete BC in 2 years?

Theres some really great game Ive been waiting for on the list, Panzer Dragoon, JRSF, Dai Senryaku. But theres still a-lot of games missing. Otogi, Chronicles of Riddick, Morrowind.....and why arnt MS published games all BC? that just dosnt make sense.

Bah people always complain... give them a finger they want the fist, give them the fist and they want the whole arm and so on and so on ... nothing new

and it's quite sad =(

Well that's not exactly true. Every PS and PS2 game may be BC in the US, but in Europe the list is pretty poor. But that veers dangerously close to SW territory so I'll leave it at that. Anyways, the reason is that the Xbox and 360 use completely different graphics technology, so it isn't feasible to have 100% BC, but as an owner you should already know that. 

Man, this is an awesome update!

OP, who are you kidding!

 Panzer Dragon Orta, Unreal Championship 2! awesome nuff said

All i want is either (Chronicles of Riddick, Project Snowblind, Deus Ex: IW, Morrowind, Silent Hill 3, or Contra: Shatterd Soldier)  I don't have a cra p load of Xbox titles, but the ones I have are pretty darn good.  Sad to know MS is looking past these games (out of all games) and the fact they don't POST what they are working on is a total SCAM.

My question is who cares? Who buys a 360 for backward compatibiliy? If i want to really play a game that isn't bc i just pop it in my regular xbox. I know what a wild conceptjagermizer_21
