Once upon a time, when you bought a new games console, it was often possible to play most of the games designed for the previous machine. This was a handy feature for people who didn't want to have multiple plastic boxes under their television sets, or for those who didn't own the previous device, but did want access to its inevitably much larger and cheaper array of games. Now however, it seems that for Sony and Microsoft, backwards compatibility, is itself a relic.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
Behavior Interactive Inc. revealed a new content update for Dead By Daylight, with a Chatoic Modifier, Store Update, and TOME 19: SPLENDOR.
Hardware would be the biggest factor/reason why they both aren't backwards compatible.
"Once upon a time, when you bought a new games console, it was often possible to play most of the games designed for the previous machine."
In the history of consoles how many were ever actually backward compatible? NES to SNES? Genesis to the Saturn? N64 to the Gamecube...?These articles and gamers seem to think BC was around for numerous generations when it was really only around for one or two I think...then again maybe Im just old now and most are too young to remember.
This is very old news. They aren't BC because of the new x86 cpu architecture. Too much sacrifice in performance and/or cost would be have to made for BC to have happened.
One nice benefit to not having BC is that the price of these older consoles didn't bottom out, like they usually do with a new generation of consoles.
