Released on the Xbox Live Arcade, Virtual On is Sega's mech fighting game series that started in the arcades and the Sega Saturn. Virtual On: Oratorio Tangram was originally released on the Dreamcast, and is now available for on XBLA for 1200 MS Points.
After Sega announced the release the first three Virtual On games on PS4, Tanita stepped in to create a specific controller, and gamers supported them.
Carlos writes "With the excitement of E3 last month, as well as all the new games that have made their way to the Xbox Store, you’d be forgiven for not noticing that the backwards compatibility scheme had gone exceptionally quiet in recent weeks. Of course, E3 brought us news that OG Xbox games would be arriving on the program later this year and made playable on Xbox One, but as for new additions things had started to look a little empty.
This week however has seen as many as six new arrivals to add to those already playable on Xbox One... but are they worth jumping into once more?"
Honestly SegaGamer? Nope. I've got little time or enthusiasm for the BC stuff. Understand that is a bit of a draw for many (and it keeps my kids happy seeing games they were initially too young to play become available), but me? Haven't yet used BC and doubt I ever will. My library of proper native XO titles is more than big enough to keep me busy.
Instead of bringing back games people actually want to play, they choose to work on titles that most people won't even touch smh...
Cyber Troopers Virtual-On Oratorio Tangram
Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3
Seriously....?
Games like Nier and Dante's Inferno would be nice for starters.
Are they worth a return, well, yeah, and what about those of us who owned them on the 360 but never finished them or the new gamers who have never experienced the games, so BC is so important.
Is it too much to ask for a fight night game? I`ve had enough of the crappy UFC titles and would love to see Round 4 or Champion released for BC
While we got Fighting Vipers and Virtua Fighter 2, Cyber Troopers Virtual-On and Virtua Striker are Japan only. The Virtual-On team says Sega has no plans to release the two upcoming arcade games outside of Japan.
