Will Chaos Thoery or Pandora be backwards compatible?

[darkwolffisher]

I was looking up what games will be backwards compatible with the xbox 360 upon launch, and Splinter cell seems to be a big maybe. Sure it will be eventually but is there any news about the game being backwards compatible upon xbox 360 launch?

Its not "official" but Microsoft did say that the top selling Xbox game will be backwards compatable, and we all know Pandora Tomorrow is a big selling title, so i can see it happening. but no one knows for sure at this point.

i believe so because i heard somewhere that all platnium games were going to be backwards compatable

i saw the 360 today. held its controller. i like the controller. the demo was call of duty 2, and i wasn't impressed. besides the hi-def screen, it looked average. by today's standards. but the console, man, that was sexy. it was sooooo sexy.

backwards compatibility is wierd with the xbox. make sure you get the version with the hard-drive if you care about that. or if you care about getting your money's worth.

duh! definetly buy the hard-drive one! and they probably will be backwards compatable because they were all hit games! but even better is that one or the requirements for 360 games is that they must have online multiplayer!

i'm not sure about the multi-player being mandatory. i know that live is mandatory, but i don't know about multi-player. i also know that hi-def and custom soundtracks are built into the hardware, basically making them standard features.

i really hope it will be backward compatible because i own the PS2 version and am getting an Xbox 360 so i want to play the Xbx version as well

[sweener182]

i personally think it will.

but if we have to depend on ubi to provide the necessary files for compatibility......

let's just say that their recent track record isn't so hot.

No it isnt, Online multiplayer isnt required, the only thing required regarding Xbox Live in each title is that it has to be "Live Aware" Which bascially means it allows you to see your friends list,get friend invites, messages and so on.

DON'T FORGET IN-GAME ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

and maybe the marketplace, as well. that i'm not sure on.

I'm going to slap my friends who told me they needed to have live multiplayer.
