    Gears of war ultimate edition was launched in 2015. Afaik, post the launch of BC on the system.

    Public BC launch was in November 2015, GOW:UE launch was August 25 2015.

     

    Gears 1 was added to BC on August 3 2015 along with the UE announcement. https://www.polygon.com/2015/8/3/9089333/gears-of-war-ultimate-edition-xbox-one-360-backward-compatbility

     

    This is embarrassing now. Surely I don't have to go this far to show that these "remasters" Sony is doing are greedy.

    XBone

    It was capable of doing BC from get go but M$ waited years to explore it

     

    Gears Ultimate,2 Halo Anniversaries ,Forza 5,Titanfall & many others were separately paid SKU’s instead 

    no upgrade option either  

     

    Now retract & leave 

    Ok lets go through this:

    xbone wasn't BC on launch. They developed it later for whatever reasons like bad sales and it came out in 2015. By your argument the ps4 can probably do ps3 games but $ony did not even explore it.

    Gears ultimate: Came 9 years after the original, enough time for a significant upgrade and launched before BC was launched

    Halo Anniversary: Launched before BC was announced and is a compilation of all games on xbone

    Forza 5: Never launched on 360 to be BC

    Titanfall: Ported back to 360 after xbone launch.

     

    Nothing to retract :giggle:

    But as I said someone who’s clutching on straws already doesn’t have the negotiating power with the buyer 

    This implies Sony is using its negotiating power to take advantage of the buyer. Which is exactly my original statement. Spider-man, GOT:DC and now this all feel a little too slimy to me. It negates the point of backward compatibility if your old copy isn't gonna get you the best version of the game. Ignore MS, enough companies have done it on PC as well.

    It really feels like Sony has decided to milk all the goodwill they built up last gen this gen. So many paid next gen upgrades compared to MS and a $10 hike in price of new games. And naming this the director's cut while the director himself doesn't agree with it. The trailer made it feel like they are trying to change the game to fall more in line with the rest of their exclusives and appeal to the american market.

    Do you guys still think that there shouldn't be a save system? It sounds like too high a penalty for folks with things to do. Enough roguelites/likes have the feature even if their runs are shorter. Savescumming is harder than ever anyway since we can't backup saves via USB now. And even then, its a single player game. IDC if someone cheats and I don't understand how it affects anyones experience if someone did but being barred from longer playthroughs because I don't have longer periods to play at a time sounds unfair. PS: I am liking the game so far FWIW. Got to Biome 3 today.
