Prop 8 brings shame to my state

I think they are done with making original Xbox games backwards compatible.

they've been done with compatibility for a LONG time. So much for turn based Gladiator battles. Guess Barbie Horse Adventures rides on.

I WILL NOT BUY THE NEXT XBOX UNTIL I KNOW 100% OF THE GAMES I NOW OWN WILL RUN. PERIOD.

But if they add it to "Originals" wont that make it playable on xbox via disk too?

Hard to say. I have a PS2 still, and Gladuis was realeased for PS2 so I'll prob just buy a PS2 copy. Epic fail Microsoft.

And I'll say again: I will NOT buy the next console until I am assured ALL my 360 games will run on it FIRST. If I can play 15 year old Sega games on my Wii, certainly the largest software company on the planet can figure this one out. So so lame.

That's true! There is really no point in having an xbox original title if it has been released for ps2. The reason behind all of this is because I have noticed lots of glitches with other backwards compatible games for the 360. And if you already have a ps2, I'm sure you realized its worth keeping. Especially the slim ones now days take up very little space.

Absolutely, we're all still sitting on these Gladius discs, waiting on Microsoft.

 

And let's not forget MechAssault 1. You know, the game that actually launched Xbox Live?

 

That I'd need to buy either game again, since I already own them, is all but robbery IMO. Microsoft needs to stop being lazy and finish the backcomp work.

You're absolutely right! MechAssault 1 was pretty much the game that made Xbox Live popular. It was only later succeeded by Halo 2. Plus, MechAssault 2 already is backwards compatible, so wouldn't it make sense to also make MechAssault 1 backwards compatible?

After years of waiting in hope, I can't believe it's not on the BC list. Was just playing Gladius on my XBOX, thinking why can't I just pop it into my XBOX360, contemplating on getting it on PS2 format to play on my PS3. I have a bunch of great games that are nowhere on the list, that in itself sucks tremendously. At least my XBOX still works, I'm guessing that's a plus, for now.

I heard/read somewhere that no more games are being added for BC, if so I hope MS or whatever companies involved change their mind.

GLADIUS...!!!! GLADIUS...!!!! GLADIUS...!!!!

haha no doubt!

Hey have you all seen this?

http://www.gladius2.com/

I just ran across it the other day actually and was thinking of posting it in our little save Gladuis thread.

Haven't tried it yet. I saw it on a free-to-play MMO list.

MMO?? Free?? I might have to check it out when I get a minute. If anyone else does, lmk if it is any good.

Still waiting.

Never played this Gladius game, but I want my F*CIKING MECHASSAULT 1 to be backwards compatible. That game oozed epicness. Thank God I still have my Xbox Live account saved to my old Xbox still, so I can hop onto old games like this and see what's up. Also comes in handy when I get the RROD.

"Do a barrel roll!" Peppy Hare.

Yep still got my MA1 disc. Hard to believe that M$FT wouldn't provide support for the title that launched xbox live, but what do I know. I'm just a customer.
