As Microsoft stretches its Xbox One backwards compatibility list, four new games arrive this week that could probably fill in your long list of requests. The titles include "Madballs in Babo: Invasion," "Luxor 2," "Poker Smash" and "Street Fighter IV." Unfortunately, the much anticipated "Call of Duty: Black Ops 2" game is still unavailable.
Fans have recently complained about the lack of big titles in the Xbox One backwards compatibility list and Xbox's Bill Stillwell has something to say. Apparently, the backwards compatibility feature is a plus on the Xbox 360 console. And while they remain committed to the program, they cannot promise the sure of bit titles every now and then.
The arrival of "Red Dead Redemption" on the Xbox One marked the continuity of big titles in the feature. It was immediately followed by "The BioShock Trilogy," "The Mass Effect Trilogy," "Skate 3," "Grand Theft Auto IV" and several others. Stillwell also added that bringing Xbox 360 games to the Xbox One is not as simple as restructuring and game and it's ready. He mentioned considerations such as initiative on sales and the timing of the release.
Apparently, publishers have big decisions to make when it comes to converting and game and make it part of the Xbox One backwards compatibility feature. Meanwhile, some of the recent BC titles that arrived on the feature include "Call of Duty: Black Ops," "XCOM: Enemy Within," "Portal 2," "Left 4 Dead," "Alan Wake," "Assassin's Creed," "Dead Space," "DOOM 3" and many more.
Take note that players who previously owned a copy of the titles on the XBox One backwards compatibility list can automatically find the new titles on the Xbox One Store. Otherwise, players will need to purchase the game and download it from the Xbox One store.
