Xbox Backward Compatible Games May Have Leaked Ahead of Today's Reveal

3.9
Later today we're looking forward to a new episode of Inside Xbox, which last week, was teased to contain exciting new information about new Xbox games on Xbox One. We're talking OG Xbox. Later this afternoon a handful of games from our childhood will be revived on the Xbox One and made playable again, and it looks like we might not have to wait to find out which games were selected!

A few posters on Reddit and ResetEra pointed out that a few Xbox games have crept their way onto the Microsoft store. These are games that have not made their way to the Xbox One yet, so the knee-jerk assumption is that these are the games which will be revealed later today as part of the presentation. There are four new games that we know of, and keep in mind that these may be incorrect. Likewise this list may not be complete.

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, Destroy All Humans, Full Spectrum Warrior, and MX Unleashed are the four new games which were spotted on the store, and by far the biggest fan reaction has been in favor of Morrowind. The timing for this one at least makes perfect sense, since the Morrowind expansion is still fairly fresh to The Elder Scrolls Online players.

Admittedly, your author is hoping that this isn't the full list, because this episode of Inside Xbox was teased over a week ago, and I'm not sure that these four games on their own merit that hype (although I will be downloading Morrowind as soon as I get the chance). There are still so many games that fans have been looking forward to playing on Xbox One; extremely popular games that should have been made available long ago. SmileBit we're looking at you! Where is our Jet Set Radio Future and Panzer Dragoon Orta?!

And then there's Burnout 3: Takedown. This is hailed as the best Burnout game of all time, almost unanimously. With the recent launch of Burnout Paradise Remastered, we'd love nothing more than to see Takedown make its way to the Xbox One. Sure, it's a bit dated by now, and yeah, it's not going to look as good as remember it, but it still has explosions, and we love exposions.

Irresponsible Why can't they make all the games compatible ?


Licensing issues. 20202020220200202

Exactly this. They wait for the third-parties to agree to allow the game to become BC. Not to mention that it takes a lot of tweaking to get the game functioning well on the Xbox one, since a lot of them don't.

oh please, like we wnat some modded as game to be backwards compatible


I mean why not bud? COD 4 is now backwards compatible and that games a hot mess all it takes is one modder to infect you and you dont even have to be a modder because the menu you get infected with you can then use to infect others so I dont want to hear it man. You dont like modders when you see one leave no modder I have known of in my 6+ year modding career will beg you to stay in there lobby. Poor excuse man. Even worse look at BO2 you can edit peoples stats without them being on the game lmfao and you're complaining about MW3...? Get a grip.

Lmao! Get a grip champ, iits not going to happen. Not everyone is some broke kid who wants to be playing worn out games.


Your joking right...? You do know MW3 is currently top 3 most requested game to become BC....?
