Microsoft says Gears of War's the only game that comes close.
The reason backwards compatibility became such a challenging issue for Microsoft on Xbox 360 was because of approaches to hardware design. There was no way to incorporate Xbox components into the machine, so software emulation became the only viable route and one that takes time to implement. With HD-DVD, Microsoft's forced into taking a similar approach.
Plenty of unforgettable games have completely messed up their players throughout the years, all the way back from the PS1 days to the dark recesses of the modern internet.
Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."
You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is
That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.
Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.
Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II was an intriguing and unique RTS title, that sadly suffered in its console port.
Was just thinking about this game and wishing I had a way to revisit it. The way EA scrubs these titles from existence once their licensing runs out is horrid.
Ah, I wondered if that was how this add-on worked. It's simiilar to the PS3's BR drive, in that they both decode the streams via their CPU/Cell rather than rely on a hardware decoder as in the case of stand-alone units.
Makes sense, especially if you have the processing power. It's more cost-effective, and probably allows for future expandability.
