Welp, it’s Thursday and as been the trend for several weeks now, we get a few more games added to Backwards Compatibility. Unfortunately, these are all arcade titles this time around, but still appreciated just the same.
Go! Go! Break Steady and Gripshift Tweet
Bloodforge and Mars: War Logs Tweet
A few notes:
Go!Go!Break Steady – This is a puzzle matcher game (and here I was hoping for two people enter, both breakdance fight and one leaves), goes for $9.99. Was released in 2008, and I sincerely doubt many even have the game. Hard achievements mostly due to the fact that you will have nobody to play with. But hey, it’s on BC.
Gripshift – This is a decent arcade racing type game and also goes for $9.99 (it did have a sale way back in 2012). Achievements are a little more reasonable and it even had one pack of DLC which has among other things Penguin Bowling and goes for the price of $4.38 (who comes up with these prices).
Bloodforge – This is a $14.99 hack and slash title that has had a few sales (most recently in 2013 though). It looks fairly interesting, with a lot of blood splatter and gore. Achievements are reasonable. I could see myself picking it up given a sale.
Mars: War Logs – Ooooh, I’m a little ticked off on this one. This one had a sale about three months ago!! And I was sitting here going, that looks interesting, that looks interesting, and then I didn’t buy it because I wasn’t a huge fan of some of the gameplay videos. It’s normally $10 (it was only $2.50 during the sale). It was worth the darn gamble. Achievements are difficult, but if you were smart enough to grab it three months ago, you are sitting pretty now.
