I think this has been said multiple times before, but won't the licenced cars in Outrun prevent it from ever appearing on BC?

 

I'm pretty sure this is the case. We could fire up the S0L signal and ask him, he might know?

Yep, it'll never ever happen in a million years. Of course they could remake it and just remove the licenses as they've done with Outrun in the past eg. Shenmue etc.

[moosegrinder]

But then it wouldn't be outrun

There're no licenced cars in Ridge Racer so there's no excuse there. They need to add Ridge Racer to the BC list immediately. Ridge Racer.

yes, it's about time R: Racing Evolution found a wider audience...

 

[edit]

I also wouldn't mind if Racing Evoluzione (Apex) got the BC treatment

 

and PGR and PGR2 please!

I guess it depends on who owns the music rights.

Rainbow Road? Pretty sure Mario Kart isn’t going to happen

Be careful what you wish for. I played code Veronica today and it looks awful. The last time I played through it was when the ps2 version  was ported to the PS4. I thought the 360 version on BC would be the definitive way to play the game but the lighting effects and added shadows look worse than the original to my eyes.

Sorry Gerbik.

Marathon 2 is a great game, but it never really worked on Xbox. Play the free source port on a Mac or PC, with the original visuals, rather than the horrific "re-mastered" graphics that look like someone ran the textures through that 2xSai filter that insane people play SNES games with.

Crackdown 2 has been added and it's a free download at the moment. I quite enjoyed it when it first came out and didn't think it was half as bad as some people would have you believe.

Conversely, I thought it was utter shite, particularly when compared to the first.

For free it's worth a go.

This would be a while world of amazing. FM4 is, I think, my favourite of the series and it's always struck me as odd that FH1 is on BC, but not this.

It’s one of four XBL Arcade games I bought back in the 360 days. Only Outrun and After Burner to go!

You only bought four XBLA games? XBLA is possibly the best thing about the 360.

Yes. That generation of consoles largely passed me by.
