Xbox One Backwards Compatibility Gets Another XBLA Classic

4.5
You can now play the Xbox 360 version of Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved on your Xbox One.

Microsoft has revealed that the Xbox Live Arcade version of Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved, which came out on Xbox 360, is now available on Xbox One through backwards compatibility.

Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved is a pretty unique game, and one with a fascinating history. The series began as a simple mini-game added to the Project Gotham Racing 2. So many gamers liked it that it was decided that a standalone game would be made. This became Retro Evolved, launching on the fledgling Xbox Live Arcade service on the Xbox 360. The game was a smash hit selling very well and leading to the franchise that we know of today.

Black Ops I was confirmed already, but no one has an exact release date. It's been like 3 months, so hopefully they'll actually release it soon :P

This is decent but I'm not bothered about it I will never play this, They need to bring out an old cod such as COD4, MW2 etc.
