The New Releases Show Week of 09.06.09

Gamervision writes:
"The week that I have been waiting for is finally here, with The Beatles: Rock Band arriving in stores on Wednesday. Finally, the ultimate Fab Four gaming experience will be available to the masses. We may have gotten a bit too excited, taking it upon ourselves to recreate the prolific musical career of The Beatles in our own way. If you're skipping out on rhythm games this week, racing sequel Dirt 2 motors into stores, and time-traveling shooter Darkest of Days also might be a bit intriguing."

10 Genres That Are Missing From the Vita's Library

VGChartz;s Adam Cartwright: "For a console that can only really be seen as a commercial failure, the PlayStation Vita did extremely well for itself in terms of software – more than 1500 games are available for it and that figure is surprisingly still growing each week, despite the hardware being discontinued earlier this year and despite the rhetoric suggesting it’s only a good machine for indie 2D platformers and niche Japanese RPGs.

Unfortunately certain genres didn't receive any representation at all and act as glaring holes in the Vita’s software library. Some of these just aren’t particularly popular on consoles in general, such as city builders, which have been niche for years. It’s these genres I’m aiming to look at in this article – what they are (including examples of some modern entries in the genres), why they weren't represented on the Vita, as well as some suggestions about what alternatives are available to scratch that itch."

4 new arrivals hit Xbox One Back Compat to break the 400 mark – But are they worth the return?

Carlos writes "Not so long ago we brought you our thoughts on the last set of backwards compatible titles to arrive on Xbox One as Microsoft closed in on the 400 Xbox backwards compatible games figure. This week has seen another fresh batch of games brought back, which now pushes that number up and over the four century mark. But, the big question is this - are they worth heading back to or should they be left in the past?"

The mostly perform better in this emulator. So there is that.

Gman322461d ago

Yup gta4 runs looks alot better on xbox one backsward compatible also because of 2 update patches along with red redemption

KingTrash2461d ago

Who cares if they're worth the return? They're just adding games. That's what they do and it's admirable.

DARK_WOLF2460d ago

Yeah alotta gamers this is their first gen so these are all new games.

People act like everyone was old enough and already played all these games 10 years ago.

Fact is all the BC games ln xb1 are games that arent on on ps4 so their pretty much exclusive to xbox and add to the many reasons to own an xbox.

Its a great console with loads of games.

Goldby2460d ago

Fact.

Assassins creed 2 brother hood and revelations is available on PS4

Borderlands is available on ps4
Dark siders 1&2 available on ps4

So not all be games are exclusive.

Weeblordbad2460d ago

Fact.

You triggered Goldby. Pretty sure he listed 4 separate remasters there like that's comparable

Also, I wouldn't consider BC games exclusive. Nice try though.

Goldby2460d ago

@Web,

no i was just correcting yummy
"Fact is all the BC games ln xb1 are games that arent on on ps4 so their pretty much exclusive to xbox"

he stated all games on BC are pretty much exclusive because they aren't on ps4, when some of them are.

zerocarnage2460d ago

that's true, they don't have to add the BC and although I'm into current gen there millions who enjoy going back and playing them all over again.

zeal0us2461d ago

So no MGS collection, Vanquish or Binary Domain.

XanderZane2461d ago

Eventually... Over 400 games. That's a lot and still more are coming.

TheColbertinator2461d ago

400 games and still no MGS HD Collection?

No point XD

Gman322461d ago

Microsoft dont own the rights to MGS collection im sure they try and probably couldn't make it happen im pretty sure a remaster will come at some point

JasonKCK2460d ago

Just play them BC on that other console.

Oh wait...

FallenAngel19842461d ago

It's worth if you enjoyed those games
