This topic is locked from further discussion.
I don't want to get excited about rumors when many times these GWG rumors turn out false or half right. I see these fake rumors using just pictures fooling people every few months. For the record, I have every single GWG game ever released.
It's better just to wait for the actual GWG announcement, especially since the actual GWG announcement is only a few days away, but this list does seem A LITTLE BIT believable, although there is a huge flaw making this thing suspect as all hell. I'll break down the rumored four GWG games while I'm here.

Xbone list:
1.) 60/100 metascoring Xbone Ryse (http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-one/ryse-son-of-rome), although not a great game, was a pretty tech demo with and also seems believable since it was a launch game for my Xbone back in 2013.
2.) 69/100 metascoring Xbone Lichdom-Battlemage is not a good game (http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/lichdom-battlemage) and I can see devs/pubs Xaviant games possibly endorse a deal with GWG just to pick up some money before Lichdom is forgotten and made irrelevant in a sea of better games available.

360 list:
3.) Bioshock Infinite 360 GWG isn't going to happen. It already did. That very same highly praised Bioshock game was already on PS3 PS+ way back in Jan 2014 and released in March 2015 on 360. I've noticed a lot of 360 GWG came from previous PS3 PS+ games and that game came and went on both programs. Unless Xbox are going to start reusing old games for GWG again, I don't believe this will release yet again and waste a slot for a new GWG release. In short, it makes no sense and is a bad deal for GWG users as we already got that game.
4.) That leaves 360 95/100 metascoring Rockstar's RDR game from 2010. It's an older and great game, so it's certainly possible Rockstar signed off, although they have been rather reluctant to ever sign off on PS+ and GWG, save for GTA: Liberty City Stories on PSP way back in 2013. Rockstar have also been reluctant to support BC as well, but maybe they came around.
Best month ever? Not even close. Well, the two supposed Xbone games aren't good games; Had at least one of those games been great, I think it could have been a solid month, although the repeat of Bioshock Infinite would be annoying. One of the 360 games, Bioshock Infinite, is straight up incorrect since it was already on GWG. Supposing this GWG list is correct, Bioshock Ininite is a repeated GWG game which would be highly disappointing. That leaves just one GWG game, RDR, as the only last gen 360/BC GWG game making next month a simply ok month but not the best month ever imo...if this rumor is true which seems unlikely at this point with regards to Bioshock Infinite.
Like I said in the other thread, this doesn't seem real to me. But fingers crossed we at least get RDR BC!
Bioshock was already GWG
RDR? The multiplayer is broken, filled with hackers, nowadays, SP is the only thing worth doing on RDR
@SolidTy: I see your point. But I wouldn't be surprised if Bioshock is this month's for the sole reason that BC wasn't in effect in March 2015. So putting it on GWG again will make it a BC title for X1, I believe.

Yeah, it turns out this fake rumor for GWG was another complete time waster like the other fake GWG rumors of the past.
At least I expected it, but yeah.
We got four completely different games instead and they got announced one day after this fake rumor thread popped up, so it's better just to wait for the official announcement.
@cainetao11: Yeah, I would have understood as well, although I wouldn't have been pleased since they could make the game BC on it's own and not waste a GWG slot as they've already done with other GWG games.
Truly though, I posted my reasons for what made this entire deal sketchy in the first place using Bioshock as the angle and I was right...plus, I didn't even go into the Rockstar RDR thing which I kept close to my chest yesterday (Rockstar not supporting Xbone BC). http://www.gamepur.com/news/21169-rockstar-games-says-big-no-xbox-one-backwards-compatibility-feature-only.html
It just all seemed too wild like the last few fake GWG rumors using pictures to fool users.
Anything can happen, nothing is written in stone, and companies can shift policies of course, but typically these rumors just don't pan out, in this case because the misleading picture just seemed too peculiar.

Rockstar is going to give in soon. They have no choice if they want to be in good standing with gamers. If they are not making a remaster then there should be no reason for not letting RDR go to BC.

The biggest wave of the backlash happened with the removal, even under fan pressure, of the illegal RDR BC and Rockstar didn't cave then at the pinnacle of that debacle.
I do agree that Rockstar could increase their standing with Xbox gamers with BC support, but perhaps the issue is a financial one with licensing, politics, a potential remaster, marketing agenda, resources, and such. Then again, Rockstar may feel they are fine devoting their money and resources to upcoming projects and gamers will come either way.
Another idea is that Rockstar save the BC titles for when a sequel is announced for Bully, Red Dead, or GTA, and then they can win gamers over with a pre-order bonus of BC of their select games in the far future.
It remains to be seen if the Xbone BC project will eclipse the 50% level the 360 had with the original Xbox. That would be a major feat getting to 50% level considering the Xbone BC requires the extra hurdles of getting publisher support and permission.
