The Fans Have Spoken – They Want Old Call Of Duty Games To Be Made Backwards Compatible

Microsoft have added a poll were fans can vote which games they would like to see made backwards compatible on Xbox One. Although non are currently leading, four Call Of Duty games are in the top 10 which shows an amazing demand for past Call Of Duty’s to be made playable on Xbox One. Only Call Of Duty can boast having more than one game in a video game series to be in the top 10 (Let alone FOUR!)

I want a HD COD 2, thats what I want...

[Summons75]

and it will still be better than every cod that has come out since cod4...

[Nirvana31591]

Good luck convincing Activision to allow their games to be backwards compatible lol

[RiseofScorpio]

Its not like they are selling huge amounts of pre 2013 COD titles anyways. They might make them digital only on X1 if they are frugal.

[Army_of_Darkness]

So it's not enough that you get an annual cod release, but you xbone gamers want too play previous cod's from last gen as well?? Lmfao!

[freshslicepizza]

all the previous call of duty games running on microsoft's dedicated servers would be a real treat, won't happen though.

[ThichQuangDuck]

The graphics have not hugely changed. Why have a developer remake everyone of their games rather than just make it backwards compatible and focus on making new games

[iTechHeads]

It's kinda funny that people on the internet complain about COD being "copy n paste" every year but then you have those who actively say they want remasters of the old ones and stuff. Kinda funny.

I say look to the future. if you want to play old COD then play it on your old console.

It think Activision thinks the same way. They want people to buy NEW COD games and DLC not focus on old COD games where there's way less money(if any) to be made anymore.

(To XB1 owners, I hope you get to play your 360 COD games though, if that's what you really want.)

[mafiahajeri]

COD 2 is nothing like the new ones that are being asked for remasters, it was a game that required much more skill then the new ones and there was none of the new features like perks etc.

I guess I want to play it because it started my love for MP games on consoles when it first released on the 360, I moved to the ps3 and it never released on it.

Thats why I want an HD COD 2. I can see myself playing it today if they re-release it on current gen consoles.

You must be mistaking COD 2, COD4 and WAW with Modern warfare 2 and onwards...

And for people saying no more WW2 games your living in the past, whens the last GOOD WW2 game we got? Exactly. Theres still much to be explored I want to play from the side of the axis. Japan, Germany and Italy, now that would be interesting...

If anything enough with exo suits...

[isa_scout]

I would love to have MW1 and 2, and South Park The Stick of Truth. Kind of sucks that they announced the RARE collection and most of the BC games are the same ones in the collection. I am enjoying Mass Effect though, as it has been years since I replayed the original.

[Zero109]

World at War...better yet. They need to make a second one. Co-op campaign and maybe go through multiple wars and next gen only. Now that's a CoD I'd buy. *Sigh*, we can dream can't we.

[Ricegum]

Na. No more world War 2 games pls. Black Ops 3 looks decent for me.

[MellauxGMNG]

With backwards compatible online games will people playing on xbox one be playing with people that are still playing on the 360?

[UnHoly_One]

Yes. It is just like operating a 360 within your Xbox One.

When you launch a 360 game you even get the 360 splash screen that the console shows when it boots up.

You can even bring up the 360 guide by pressing the menu and view buttons at the same time.

It's pretty sweet, honestly.

[MellauxGMNG]

Ahh I see, thats pretty cool! Thanks :)

[jay2]

How boring.

[xfiles2099]

I want black ops

[WeAreLegion]

1, 2, MW, and MW2 please.

[USMC_POLICE]

Really black ops 2 is leading how sad.

[Lennoxb63]

Why is it that competitive games that require some type of twitch reflexes, skill, and acurracy always called "dude bro." Not to mention that games like COD flooded the PC back in the 90s to early 2000s. Playing those games at one point is what made you a real (skilled) gamer.

Now the people who suck at these type of games call the trash in order to make people ignore the fact that they arent very skilled. Now the slower the game is, the more youre considered a "real gamer," or a gamer of "good taste."

[Barricade]

I don't 'suck' at COD (actually I'm willing to bet I have a higher k/d AND w/l ratio than you on the last COD games I've played) but even I can see why people are trashing on them. The yearly releases and little innovation between games with the overpriced map packs (imo) make the 'cash-grabbing-Activision& #39; argument valid.

But do you think Activision cares when it's getting these sales numbers? I actually like a COD once and a while, just for the mindless fun. You don't need to think, just aim and shoot (that's why it's dude bro btw), but that's not really a bad thing, there are enough other games if you're not into shooters.

[Lennoxb63]

I have a 2.3 K/D and a 1.8 W/L ratio. But that's not what I'm getting at. There is very little innovation in about 95% of the games released. Almost every game and/or game franchise is repetitive to a certain extent. They mostly just add a new coat of paint, and 1 or 2 new features.

You're probably the type to trash COD and go and play Nintendo games. They have been the same for the past 15 or so years.

You are asking too much for a company to stop making a game that they make millions off of. Whether you like them or not is your opinion. But millions of people enjoy them and that's all that matters.

[Barricade]

@Lennoxb63

You're not bad but I actually think I've got higher stats, the last COD I played was Black Ops I so it's been too long to be sure, I should probably check and edit this post later. Are you playing in a party to get those numbers (like I do)?

I don't play Nintendo games no, just as I don't trash COD, learn to read please. I said I get it why people trash COD. Neither did i say a word about them having to stop releasing the games, you're so blinded by your fanboyism you just read what you want to read.I just said some more innovation is welcome, but why change a winning formula, right?

[Barricade]

2.83 K/D and 4.3 W/L btw, just checked, MW2 is a little bit lower but not that much (and those were the only two CODs I played for the stats)

[Tctczach]

MW2. I spent so much time on that stupid game.

[MeatBallz]

MW2!

[Ctiboi2010]

It would be awesome if they make the older CODs backwards compatible. I'm glad Microsoft and xbox went this route. One question though, does that mean developers will re-open online servers for these old games now that they will have xbox one users playing their older games? They eventually close down servers to save money, if I'm not mistaken right?

[Reddzfoxx]

Well the old COD games use peer 2 peer hosting instead of servers and the only real server used is for actual matchmaking which is apart of Xbox live. So technically as long as xbox supports those games with matchmaking it should be okay.

[Tyrant 8 RDFL]

My vote goes with MW2 and BOPS 1

[badboyz09]

Remasterd on ps4 all dlc please!!!!!
