Yeah, is there a link to that list or is that just the same list from before? Part of the "hundreds or more games available Holiday 2015"?
I'm guess it's the later and that those games are just the ones they plan to have available.
I know I shouldn't bite, but I will.
Journey focused on human connection, relationship, trust, self-reflection, spiritual meaning, and emotional impact. At it's core it's a social study. It has won a large number of game-of-the-year awards for an indie title, including five BAFTA, 6 of the 11 GDC awards, and even the world's first Grammy for a video game. The reason so many gamers loved this game is not simply because it's "focused on atmosphere and exploration". Not even close.
Your attempt at discrediting other gamers and dismissing their tastes as mere fanboy lies is pathetic. It's the victim argument, it's a false equivalence, and you're even putting up straw men.
Here is the UserVoice BC vote link for games you want to see.
The list could be larger, but this makes me dream about full BC being possible. They are just launching some of the most complex games, so XBLA and XNA games should run like a charm.
Okay, my final opinions on the conference. They did a good job and Phil Spencer's hand is showing. They are in the right track. The new controller looks excellent and might play some games like a dream --hopefully the price will be lower at launch. The only downside of the new controller is that it could split the user base, some could enjoy an advantage while playing online, but that's just worrisome for the most core fans, I guess.
What I've missed the most was more and more from Rare. And a new Age of Empires. I also missed more shocking news, because while you look at it in a cold manner PS4 conference is not all that perfect, but you have to make a lot of noise and Sony did. Still, it was a serene conference and a great E3 overall.
I also miss more JRPG games on the Xbox One. They should make the effort like in the Xbox 360 days when they launched some great JRPGs, like Phantasy Universe, Blue Dragon, etc.
Soooo looking forward to the Gamescom, to see how Scalebound holds up, Quantum Break and so on. I hope there are more surprises.
I think the difference will come down to xbox one offering digital versions on the marketplace. No money in allowing people to play their last gen titles on their new gen console. But there is money in selling last gen titles to new gen owners who never played or lost titles of value.
If pubs offer a bunch of attractive cheap bundles or do a bunch of sales similar to steam and xbox gamers consume the old 360 titles at good rate then the volume of games that transition over will grow.
Wasn't really possible in previous gens due to the dominance of physical distribution and the associated cost. Digital distribution should be much cheaper and make BC a viable solution in terms of profitability.
Right. There are some Xbox 360 gems that I missed either for the lack of money at the time, lack of time, the game going unnoticed, or whatever reason. Ideally they should integrate the Xbox One and Xbox 360 store into a giant single store.
Tecmo must be salty about Itagaki.

Who do I have to kill to get a preview program invite?
An invitation appeared one day from Xbox Live, out of the blue. I didn't ask for it. I signed, nothing happened. Weeks later another message appeared and they had added me to the Xbox preview. This happened 4 months ago or so.

It is my understanding that those who are in the program can send invites to other users in their friendlist. Can you hook me up?
That's what I thought too, a few months ago, but the feature has been removed ever since, I think. Not 100% sure. But I got the invitation directly from Xbox Live, never from a friend.It is my understanding that those who are in the program can send invites to other users in their friendlist. Can you hook me up?
