So I've definitely packed away my Xbox 360, but before purchasing the Xbox One there were a few games that I purchased that I didn't really spend much time with. I've been thinking about going back to them but I don't really want to drag out the 360 and hook it back up (lazy, I know). So I was wondering what games people would like to see added to the backwards compatibility list? So far the two major ones for me are Catherine and Zone of the Enders HD Collection. Also, it looks like there is a list here that has some listed that people can vote on. I don't know how much sway it has in the decision-making process but it's neat to see the types of games people are pining for the most.
Xbox One Backwards Compatibility
Concept »
Xbox 360 and original Xbox games that have been approved to run on the Xbox One's backwards compatibility feature.
Which games would you like to see added to Xbox One backwards compatibility list?
@noble_samurai: I'd be very down for those two as well.
@blu3v3nom07: The first Condemned actually is already compatible.
There are a handful of games that I have bought in hopes that they may one day become compatible:
Saints Row 1 & 2
Burnout Paradise (a while ago Criterion said this would eventually happen)
Peace Walker HD
Kingdoms of Amalaur: Reckoning
@kedi2: Condemned 2 has a bear, though. That's a great bear.
Didn't know the first one was compatible, that's cool. I'll have to check it out.
Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon. Apparently, there's some issue with multi-disc games which is a big reason why they aren't on yet, but either way, get on that shit, Microsoft! I know you out there, Spencer!!! Hook me up!
Burnout Revenge

I'm right there with you man, I prefer the more structured format of earlier Burnout games to the more open format of Paradise. The thing is that I've played Revenge to completion while I own Paradise but have not touched it yet, so I'd like a convenient way to give it a shot without digging out my 360.
@kedi2: oh thats cool. i confess that i merely ctrl+f-ed burnout paradise just so i could be snarky about it and missed the first part. ;)
Like haxdax said a few posts up, I really hope ME1 being backwards compatible means ME2 and ME3 will eventually get backwards compatibility.
Ninja Gaiden 2, although i'd imagine it would be difficult given how eratic the framerate could be at times. Also it's a game that Microsoft published with Tecmo which is now Koei Tecmo so I dont how that works. And yeah the Mass Effect games are a given unless there's some kind of remastering in the works.
Definitely Burnout: Paradise. XBL just gave out Rainbow Six Vegas 2 which is pretty cool, that was always fun online but to go back to it? Hmm.
Condemned 2
Metal Gear Collection
Mirror's Edge
The Bourne Conspiracy was very fun
Bumpity bump bump!
Anyways. I'd like to see the Crysis trilogy put on, all of the other Tom Clancy games (G.R.A.W. 1, 2 & Future Soldier, Splinter Cell Conviction/Blacklist), the F.E.A.R. games, MW2 & 3, Dark Athena, Syndicate, The Darkness 1 & 2, Arkham Origins, Max Payne 3, Condemned 2... Every other game on Xbox 360.
