So I've been strongly considering replaying the Prince of Persia games for XBOX (just like the Splinter Cells I've been working through). The only one of the trilogy I played was Sands of Time. The other 2, which are awesome from all I've heard and read, are Warrior Within and Two Thrones. Well only Sands of Time is backwards compatible! WTF?! How can this be?
I feel like MS just did a majority of the games to shut up everyone about every game not working and then they just stopped after the PS3 gave up the ability to do it as well. It's more fuel to the fire of the fact that I STILL CAN'T play Unreal Championship on 360 either. I WANT TO PLAY BOMBING RUN AGAIN DAMNIT (it's basically football, but with guns and dodge jumping madness)! As Amateria constantly points out if you put Unreal Championship in the drive of your 360 it will actually read and put onscreen "Play Unreal Championship," but it doesn't work.
What a cock tease.

remember the good old days when the PS2 played EVERY SINGLE PSONE game... awesome...
ReplyDeleteaye, loved them all, mind the second one, Warrior Within, was so confusing at times shifting thru time. Sands of Time is still the best and i'm chuffed to here there's a reboot of the game coming out along with the movie which on a side note looks sweet.
ReplyDeleteand to your point, i'm quite surprised at only the sands being compatible, time to blow the dust off the old box?
Skatch, I've been told the new PoP game coming out isn't tied at all with the film. Maybe I was misinformed.
ReplyDeleteTo the point though... SERIOUSLY! It's like they didn't even try to do it. I'm certain it had nothing to do with the PS3 compatibility story though. The last time they added anything new to the BC list for the xbox was in November of 2007. Cmon!
Bombing run, lightning guns, godlike bots... good stuff.
