Really looking forward to this if it's how I hope it'll be, However what we've been given so far as preview members is a joke. The games that have been released so far are titles that most of us have never owned, so therefore I'm not actually able to preview anything, and as far as I know it doesn't include any popular titles that all of us have voted for and would love to bring back and play again. It doesn't really look like Microsoft are even putting that much effort in to this, seeing as we're still without an official release date. I could be wrong, but so far this feature just looks like Microsoft trying their best to gain a competitive edge over Sony.

I agree. I really don't think Microsoft will bring back the best old titles like MW2 or COD4, etc... Really sucks but Sony has similar with their service on playing the old games too.

Just because a title is voted for backwards comparability doesn't mean it will happen. It's up to the developers to decide not Microsoft.

As preview members we have to test out the games first. Once they make it available to everyone they will most likely release the popular titles with it.

The games that have came out do far are trash but the games that people want most likely are going to take a while to come out, but your right, im also not sure why borderlands hasn't come out yet because that was the game they previewed it with.

I don't get what's with you people.. Give them some time to release it. Neither you nor Microsoft wants the backwards compatibility to be released with tons of bugs. They are still working out the kinks in it.

And the popular titles aren't guaranteed. As a user has said before, the developer chooses whether or not the game is going to be available. Microsoft started out with these games that no one has heard of because they are more like arcade games. They are only testing the water right now to make sure when they release it, it won't be broken. People will always complain. I bet if Microsoft went ahead and released it right now, most of you will be complaining about all the bugs. So for now, just chill out and maybe go outside for a bit. Try to forget about the backwards compatibility for now. It's coming out this fall.

I think you genuinely take peoples opinions the wrong way and get frustrated too easily so maybe you should "go outside for a bit"
