HiperEye,
I'm here with you. I bought my 360 for three things, playing 360 games (of which there are none I want.....yet), to play media files through entertainment center, and to play BC games through System Link with the old Xbox. I had two Xboxes, and sold one in July to pay for two preorders (two different stores, just in case there were supply issues). I was happy to see the list in November at 200+, and the frequent updates promise got me hooked, but when I saw 4 new games a month later, I thought this is not going to be good.
I posted this story many times in this forum and have gotten nothing but "you should have waited til a game comes out you want because the premium will be $300 then" and "You should have bought an Xbox1 and saved the $200" comments. Honestly, I wanted to enjoy Halo2 on it, but it's a bit buggy for my liking, and Ninja Gaiden Black is unplayable. WHY ARE THEY ON THE LIST? The only other games I own (Burnout 3, Burnout Revenge and Chronicles of Riddick are not playable at all), so I went out and bought Splinter Cell...actually I bought Splinter Cell ChaosTheory first, and found it to be unplayable, so I took it back and had to demean an employee to get my money back and I got The original Splinter Cell. This was rediculous, MS should make retailers aware that the BC list is not infailable and that we may return the games. I doubt I could have returned it if it was a new game.
It's funny, because a lot of people seem to think that BC is a gift, from MS to us, their adoring fans. WRONG. It's a feature, its touted as a feature, and it's high time someone called them on this. MS has been inaccurate in the past, mixing rumours with information. It's been two months since out last update. BC, along with the media player problems, is damn disappointing on this rig, and I am that more more disappointed with the 360 and MS.
For now...until Ghost Recon and Burnout come out ;-)
