Problem I had that was pissing me off is you needed certain copies of the game over other copies. I was excited I was going to play Fable from the OG Xbox on my XB1 I bought the game off Ebay. Here I needed the anniversary edition of the game to get it to work on my XB1.

That’s some BS. People praised the Xbox for its BC, but it’s so limited. Half the games i want to play aren’t compatible.

TheNamelessOne251d ago

I don't know. I have over 80 games on my Series between the original Xbox and the 360. Another 20 or so I have on my wishlist, waiting for sales. Some of these basically treated as free remasters. I think they deserve some praise for that.

And I mean, hell, if there's games you want to play that they don't offer, it's really easy to get emulators running on the Series, and both the Series S and X are great emulation machines.

Yeah that is why you should go over the list first thanks 2 publishers not allowing them more time/support to keep going with bc support.

INMATEofARKHAM252d ago

It's backwards compatible with the 360... not the orginal Xbox.

darthv72251d ago

just to clarify... its BC with both platforms depending on the game, but in this case the game in question is the 360 version that is BC.

@INMATEofARKHAM

XB1 can play certain OG Xbox games Microsoft did release that feature.

micdagoat19251d ago

yeah thats not true at all. theres a lot of OG xbox games that are compatible

darthv72251d ago

Find yourself an OG xbox (they should be pretty cheap) or a 360 and have at it. Dont let that game go to waste.

For some reason this reminds me of issues artist have brought up regarding AI 'art'. Where literally everything is sourced from other artists. Invluding AI art in games seems like a legal nightmare.

If AI is left alone as a free platform similar to what we did with the internet, it wouldnt be an issue. But if we allow companies to patent parts of the i termet as theor own walled gardens, then yes, there would be patent wars and legal nightmare.

As to this, the title is misleading, the game’s art is not plagiarism, someone included a painting(s) that beloned to some artist, in the code.

Eonjay9m ago

Well, do you think companies should be able to include AI generated art in their game if the art is generated using the work from other people? Or should AI art be considered original and the source work be considered inspiration?
