Default Real World Golf backwards compatible?

Any word yet on whether Real World Golf is going to be made backwards compatible for Xbox 360?

wait if its being made for the 360, than it would be backwards compatable for the xbox, not the 360. and if it made for the xbox 360, it will not be backwards to the xbox. but, heres a list of all the games that are forwards compatable from the xbox to the 360: http://forum.lik-sang.com/showthread.php?t=4792

It's being made for the Xbox, and I'm wondering if it is going to be backwards compatible for the 360.

if its not on that list it wont work on the 360. the term is forwards compatable. think about it like this: if you are going from greater technology to lesser, then it would be backwards compatable. but since you are going from lesser technology(xbox) to greater(360) then the term is forwards compatable.

I'm pretty sure Microsoft considers it "backwards compatible". And Real World Golf just came out, so it wouldn't have made it on the list yet.

very well. i stand corrected. but, we were think about different things. what i said is true for the games, but "backwards compatability" refers to this:
Quote:
It's not the games or the console, it's the technology...

the technology is backwards compatible... that's why it's not forward compatibility, because the technology, although more developed, is looking backwards to integrate previous technology...

I agree. Either way it is stated it means the same thing... and it seems to me to remain a burning question for every Xbox 360 user: why aren't more games compatible from the Xbox?

It wouldn't be as much of a problem if there was a greater array of 360 games.

its a money move. if there are fewer games from the xbox 1 that u can play on the 360, then you will have to buy all new games, forcing you to give your $$$ to microsoft
