Xbox One BC Wishlist

by captainscarleg

Backwards Compatibility is one of my absolute favourite features on the Xbox One. Back Compat on any system is cool, but Microsoft really knocked it out of the park by having the games look and run better than they did on original hardware (more stable framerates, forced V-Sync, etc.) and by letting you just pop in your original disc. Still, there are a few games missing from the service that I'd really like to see.

Soulcalibur IV

1. Soulcalibur IV

I really like the idea of my Xbox One just having every fighting game on it. Tekken, Dead or Alive, Injustice and Virtua Fighter are covered, but SCIV is a big omission for me. If I had to guess, this game is probably in some sort of licensing hell thanks to the Star Wars characters. If that's the case we may never see it added to Back Compat. It's one of my most played 360 games though and I'd love to see it happen.

Soulcalibur V

2. Soulcalibur V

I never played this one much and think IV is better, but I'd still like to have another crack at it sometime. Having it on my Xbox One would be as good a reason as any to take another look.

Street Fighter X Tekken

3. Street Fighter X Tekken

Tekken and Street Fighter are on there, kinda weird this isn't. I've only messed around with this game once or twice, wouldn't mind taking another look at it. Edit - Finally got this on PC, it's neat!

Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing

4. Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing

I fell in love with Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed when they gave it out on Games with Gold a while back so I'm down for playing the original.

Sega Superstars Tennis

5. Sega Superstars Tennis

I just put this in my 360 for the first time (it was a pack-in game with my console I'd never touched) and it seems pretty good. Made by the same devs who made the Sonic All-Stars Racing games and I kind of just want to play everything they make now. Maybe they could have a crack at reviving Sonic Riders after Sonic Team Racing comes out.

Sonic Heroes

6. Sonic Heroes

I dunno, this would just be cool to see. Sonic Heroes isn't my favourite Sonic game but I have some fond memories of it. Mostly the theme song.

Sonic Riders

7. Sonic Riders

Same reason as Sonic Heroes really. Riders isn't the easiest game to control but it feels great when you get pretty good at it. I'm not sure if the Wii sequel was good, I'll have to look into it, but it's a shame the 360 Riders game was Kinect-only and we haven't seen Riders again since.

Dragon Ball: Raging Blast

8. Dragon Ball: Raging Blast

I don't understand why none of the Dragon Ball Z 360 games are on there. I haven't played the Raging Blast games but from what I can gather they're basically successors to the old Tenkaichi series and those were great.

Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2

9. Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2

Like seriously Xenoverse and FighterZ are fantastic but it would be nice to have more.

Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit

10. Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit

Surely they could only make more money by adding these? I actually played this one a bunch, I remember the story mode was really tough on the higher difficulties. Burst Limit was a watered down Budokai if memory serves but it looked slick.
