    Like most backwards compatible games, I don't know how I'm going to feel about playing this on the Xbox One controller, I'm too comfortable with the 360 one!

    Great news though.

    It isn't that different, it is like an slightly better 360 controller. You would think you were transitioning from the Duke.

    My favourite game from the 360 era :)

    I'm waiting for Duke Nukem Forever, Dead Space 2, The Darkness, etc etc to be backwards compatible.

    Is the dlc available too I wonder?

    I never really struggle with switching between 360/XB1 controllers & do prefer the XB1 myself.
    Play hard.Play fair!

    Woo-hoo! One of my favorite games mp-wise. Probably download it soon, though I did play it to death when it was first released.

    It's actually just the general feel of the controller, I've barely played any games on the Xbox one yet apart from Rock Band 4 and Guitar Hero Live so I'm still getting used to the slight change...

    Nice! I wish they'd make another current-gen version, maybe not so linear, but keep the simplicity of the game. I liked how you could essentially pick up and play, and just run, run, and run.

    They do make adapters that let you play on the One with 360 controllers (or even PS controllers, if you have tiny hands?)...I use my 360 turbo controllers to grind out stuff on the One that I don't have the patience to sit there for!
    Look at me so I can finish!

    Awww, booo. The second game? I was really hoping we'd get the first since not only do I prefer that one but that's the one I own digitally. Ah well. Guess I won't be playing this one. Pfft.
    Looking to boost any MP achievements I don't have for any game I own.
