Backwards compatability halted

[Steven W]

So Microsoft have said that there will be no more backwards compatible games until March or April.

This isn't a good move, there is a lack of Xbox 360 games as it is and now we can't buy any new Xbox games that will work on our 360. It's a kick in the teeth for those gamers who have already gone and traded their Xbox.

EGM: We hope we've made these easy for you. So: Splinter Cell Chaos Theory or Sneakers?

PM: [Laughs] Well, as fond as I was of Sneakers, I have to say that Splinter Cell probably [tops] it.

EGM: How about Soul Calibur II or Kabuki Warriors?

PM: Well, that would be Soul Calibur II.

EGM: Next: Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball or Barbie Horse Adventures: Wild Horse Rescue?

PM: Ah, Xtreme Volleyball...anything that [Dead or Alive creator Tomonobu] Itagakisan does is always a big favorite with me. He's always been a big supporter of the platform, and it would be disloyal for me not to choose his title.

EGM: So here's what we're getting at: You picked three Xbox 1 games that aren't backwards compatible on the Xbox 360, and the other ones—Sneakers, Kabuki, and Barbie—are.
