Xbox One gets three more additions to Backwards Compatibility – Are they worth the return?

Carlos writes: "It’s already been a great year for Xbox One Backwards Compatibility, but we’re still only a few months in and that means there is plenty more to come throughout 2018, with many more of our favourite titles still yet to be added. Whilst the latest additions aren’t more of the recently promised titles that will be getting Xbox One X Enhancements, they still continue the trend of frequent releases, and it's always good to see old Xbox 360 becoming available on Xbox One. The question is though - are they games that we should be heading back to?"

Vanquish alone is worth it imo

zaherdab2251d ago (Edited 2251d ago )

the game is probably heading as a remaster to ps4 and xbox one though so most ppl are better off waiting for those version

Asuka2251d ago

I mean it could, but I kinda feel like it would have happened already if it were the case. Both Vanquish and Bayonetta came to steam last year, and if they were going to be remastered for current consoles i feel like it would have happened around then or even before the PC ports. Could still happen tho

gamer78042251d ago (Edited 2251d ago )

Unless they would like to play it for free. i hope there is a remaster for bayonetta, it would look great at 4k 60

BLKxSEPTEMBER2251d ago

You have any links supporting that? If so I’ll wait

zaherdab2251d ago

@BLK there were rumors last of end year but no official statement ... though i would surprised if doesn't happen

Kumakai2251d ago (Edited 2251d ago )

nowhere does anyone say its coming to consoles. it was only done for pc. there are threads of people asking if it will be released on console but 0 mention from the studio or distributor.

The cool thing about BC on the xbox one x specifically tho is that it can render the game geometry at 4k and get better frame rates without a patch so even the base game gets a bit of a performance boost.

Sitdown2251d ago

Better of waiting to play a remaster of a game that has not been confirmed vs playing it now for cheaper with the potential of it being Xbox one enhanced? Ooooooookay.

dlocsta2251d ago

Since when are you "better off" paying for a game you already own AGAIN instead of playing said game with improvements at no cost?

jrshankill2251d ago

Zahdab..

Why would I hold off on Vanquish if I already own the 360 disc :-/

Start working at home with Google! It’s by-far the best job I’ve had. Last Friday I got a brand new BMW since getting a check for $6474 this - 5 weeks past. I began this 6-months ago and immediately was bringing home at least $85 per hour.. Go this web and start your work.. Good luck.... http://www.fl-y.com/3r8h

Obscure_Observer2251d ago

Vanquish! *_*

Glorious on the X!

XbladeTeddy2251d ago

Vanquish is the best third-person cover shooter I ever played. The whole game is a pure adrenalin rush.

mafiahajeri2251d ago

I remember playing the demo and thinking it was badass, never got around to buying it for some reason though xD

Blaze9292251d ago

damn that good? best ever? i need to check it out then

XbladeTeddy2251d ago

Best I've played. It forces you to think on your feet all the time. Makes you have to move constantly as your always overwhelmed and getting flanked but you have abilities like sliding and slowing time down plus a squad with you to help give you a chance. It's short but so good and can be picked up so cheap now.

Masta Kaos2251d ago

Better than Gears Of War and Uncharted if you ask me....

Automatic792251d ago

I never got to play vanquish definitely picking up.

KillBill2251d ago

Its FREE next month for XBLG.

timotim2251d ago

Some good games added there...Xbox One has a damn good catalog of titles to play.

livedeht2251d ago

Don't you mean the Xbox 360 has a damn good catalog to play again?

timotim2251d ago

Well...the 360 does too to be honest. But there are tons of great games that are not being made for 360 anymore but is for the Xbox One. If I can play these games on One, along with all the great 360 titles, then no, I mean Xbox One...

Not a single Reistance? Fuck this article.

mastershredder12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

Starhawk over Warhawk?...... Dude, NO ONE should listen to you.

Odd choices for "best" more like you settled as these being the "best" that available to you at the time, cause a lot of these blow or were average to poor performers that ended up in bargain bin.

Missing too many great sci-fi titles here. The Void, The Resistance Series, Killzone 2 and 3, Enslaved, man.. there were so many, this is redicu-list.

FreeckyCake12d ago

Nobody should listen to you either with that attitude.

OtterX12d ago

I agree that Starhawk shouldn't be above Warhawk, however I must say that Starhawk multiplayer was incredible for its time! Many people wrote it off bc the single player was quite terrible, bc it was basically 1 huge tutorial for the multiplayer. But I can tell you never spent any significant amount of time in MP. It was doing incredibly tense base building w air, foot and land vehicle (and mech!) combat long before Fortnite was ever a thing.

I bet it would have been much better received if it had just ditched the story mode all together. So many people like yourself completely wrote it off based on reviews by reviewers that let the criticism of single player weigh heavily on their scores. I bet you didn't even play it.

Friendlygamer12d ago

The riddick games are some of the best stealth titles ever, highly underrated

YourMommySpoils12d ago

What games? All recall plating was Escape from Butcher Bay.

Friendlygamer12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

There's also the less acclaimed 'assault on dark Athena'

( also, not saying this to you specifically but there's both resistance and killzone games on the list, it's amazing how even something so simple and innocent as a game list can be turned into misinformed vitriol here lol )

jznrpg12d ago

Glad to see Resonance of Fate. Enslaved was pretty good too. I’m sure there are others nobody has listed but I’m too tired to try and think of anything

Titan fall 2 was chefs kiss. For those of you who haven't played it go ahead. Brilliant. With each level being creatively different.

Yui_Suzumiya326d ago

Island, Steins;Gate Elite and Soma.

MadLad326d ago

Soma is an epic experience.

jznrpg326d ago (Edited 326d ago )

Does ISLAND have English subs ? I can’t find a copy that says it has English subs for PS only the Switch version which I rather not buy .

Love Steins Gate and Soma

shinoff2183326d ago (Edited 326d ago )

FRom what i could find. Nothing with English subs.

Yui_Suzumiya324d ago

I own a physical copy on Switch and it does have English subtitles so it's all good on Switch and Playstation.

Yui_Suzumiya324d ago (Edited 324d ago )

My bad. Steam and Switch have English but PS4 and Vita only have Japanese. Sony doesn't mess with many visual novels which is why I only own a Switch OLED and laptop for all my games.

Actually great list TBH I agree with all 10

I hope one day we get some remakes for the following

The saboteur(with a proper remake and quality of life features this game could be great)
Scarface world is yours
Binary domain ( such a great game with great story)
GUN(this needs a remake)
Space marine 40k(such fun time)

Would also like to suggest adding the mercenary series even the 2nd game which is disliked by many is a fun time

cthulhucultist361d ago

I recently finished Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and found it to be very enjoyable.

The game respected the lore and the gameplay was quite decent.

The color palette was a bit underwhelming (backdrops and setting) and recycled but I think that it deserved better.

Here's hoping for an amazing sequel

Vengeance1138361d ago

Space Marine II !! My most anticipated game of 2023! Woot
