Honestly, the 10K votes is a blessing though. In terms of the votes, it's actually doing good when you see how the other games are doing above and below besides the few Giants in votes.

In all fairness, it's not doing that poorly. It's on page 5 of 78 pages of games. And it seems like 90% of the games ahead of it are called Halo, Call of Duty, Battlefield or Assassin's Creed. So it actually isn't doing too bad, even with "only" 10,168 votes.

I'm really hoping NCAA 14 makes it onto the Xbox One. Guess we will see starting November 12th if it is among the first 100 games to roll out with backwards compatibility. It's sitting just shy of 11,000 votes, which puts it in the top 100 if it really even matters. I'm just skeptical, given the player likeness and licensing issues, if it is even possible for EA. If they are allowed to continue selling it for 360, is there any difference if they sell the same game for the One?

We have put up a good fight. Hopefully it is realized in some capacity.

I would have thought that most games should be compatible. Wouldn't it be a pain in the #### to have to block or stop some games?

Is Nov 12th the cutoff date?

I really hope it makes the cut.


The link talks about licensing issues. I'm not sure that would really hold it up. The license was bought, and paid for to put into the game. It's not like it'd be a big issue. If anything, used copies of it will move off shelves if it goes BC, and probably some new digital copies. Which gives EA and the license holder another cut of the profits. So, I'm not sure why they would care at all if it goes to the BC list, and results in some sales.


It was bought and paid for by EA. I mean, if I go and turn on my Xbox 360 and can still buy NCAA14 through the Xbox store, what's the big deal making it BC on the X1.
