10 Backwards Compatible Xbox 360 Games Microsoft Are Ignoring

We've all heard the jokes - Skyrim is on every console. Why not backwards compatibility too?

Despite already having a remastered version of the game available on Xbox One, many people still haven't made the jump and still have their original copies of Skyrim. Considering that the recent re-release didn't really add anything too special, it makes sense that some people would be hesitant to make the upgrade, especially in a game like Skyrim where keeping progress is a big deal.

Although having a remaster does definitely make it less likely that the game will become backwards compatible, it isn't definite. Games like Rayman Legends, Assassin's Creed 2 and several more have all had remasters, yet also feature as backwards compatible.

Considering how beloved Skyrim is, it only makes sense that it becomes backwards compatible eventually.
