Backwards Compatibillity

[Scott]

OMG! I just got an X360 thinking that some of the old XB games could tide me over untill some good X360 games come out, but guess what!!!

I got 4 XBox games and THREE of them don't work!!! "Tetris Worlds" can play, but offline only.

What kind of a world is this?!?!?! I am sorry to say this but, I kinda wish I never got an X360. If it wasn't so expensive, I'd take a sledge hammer to it!!!!

Maybe I will play through N3, Kameo, and Banjo Kazooie and then sell it!

Anyways, I have to take back all the games I bought! ()

BTW, I tried to ask for help on the official XBox forums, but they filter their threads so that they can only post the threads that give them a good name. I waited a day to see if they posted my thread, but NO! They don't want my voice to be heard! Those jerks!

At least we know Nintendo won't shaft their users like this, making systems that aren't even backwards compatible though they imply they are, and not letting people post on their forums speaking freely but censoring their message at their own whims. I am disappointed with the Xbox 360 as you are, both of us for several legitimate reasons. It could have been so much better, too.

I found out that not even Tetris worlds can play, since it was a two pack.

But they finally posted my thread on the forums, they just took a LOT longer with mine than most of the other people's threads.

They said that they are still working on compatibility game by game, but they can't tell me if the games I bought are being worked on or not.

I might as well return the games if I can't use them.

It's a shame, that when you think of the PS2 it ran pretty well every game that PS1 had, but now you can't get the Xbox 360 to emulate Xbox? Now I know Xbox is hard to emulate, but COME ON.. you have Xbox 360, supposed to be a "revolution in gaming", at least Microsoft would claim that.. and it can't even run their old games without patches that take forever to be released. This is nuts... it's like they don't care what the customers think about being able to play the old games, they just throw in "backwards compatibility" to sell more systems.
