Stacking was part of GwG last month (if I recall) and it is surprisingly fun.

Then I may have just hit 'install' instead of 'buy' due to my lack of Japanese knowledge :P

Three more fresh faces arrive for Xbox backwards compatibility – Are they worth the return?

Carlos writes "March may not have provided equal delights when compared to that of February’s backward compatible arrivals, especially with great games such as GTA IV, Borderlands 2 and Hitman: Absolution arriving amongst the masses on Xbox One last month, but that doesn’t mean we’re any less content when new additions come to the program.

Today sees a fresh batch of titles join the fray, but with so many to choose from now, are they worth going back to or should they be left on the shelf forever more?"

Stacking was a lovely little game

Cobra9513008d ago

Yes, but it's not there yet for me. Bummer. Was looking forward to reliving that one today.

Pancit_Canton3008d ago

Yes. If you got nothing else to play.

Yawn. I don't get it. Xbox doesn't seem to want to open the purse strings to bring in new IPs and with the selection of bc games, you can't tell me developers wouldn't want to get more.money on old IPs. I'm sorry to say, but Xbox feels like they care less and less for the gamer's...

Great list. I'm actually starting to prefer short games.

Double_O_Revan3703d ago

Me too. I get burned out on really long games. 12-15 hours is my sweet spot. Sometimes more. Like Mass Effect, 200 hours for the trilogy and I still want to play it over again and again.

But because I'm so stretched for time, a game like Shadows of Mordor took me close to 2 months for a 30 hour play through.

Na Bro. Don't you know? I need more content for my purchasing dollar. I judge the value of something based solely on how much of it there is.

That's how i buy my games, make me run around like an idiot for 100+ hours and i'll give you 100+ dollars.

I need at least .65 cent\per hour dollar ratio to justify buying a game, cuz i'm a hardcore gamer.
