ProMinx 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Hi guys - I was wondering if anyone knows whether or not Stacked will be playable on the Xbox 360. I really want to buy and play the game, but I gave my original XBox to a friend when his broke a few months back, and I'd really prefer to play the game on my 360. I know DN has a 360 too, so here's hoping that he has been pushing for Stacked to be added to the backwards compatability list (it isn't on Microsoft's list yet, but some unlisted games work anyway). I have looked all over and found nothing (which probably implies that my answer will be in the negative). Thank you guys for any help on this subject.Matt / ProMinx Link to post Share on other sites

ProMinx 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Author Share Posted June 1, 2006 But will it be backwards compatible at launch, or will we have to wait around for an update? Thank you again for your help. Link to post Share on other sites
umop-apisdn 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 It will be added to the backwards compatability list although I'm not sure of when exactly that's rolling out.----Excuse me? Does this mean it is compatible, or that you're still working on the addon to make it so? Link to post Share on other sites
mellinac 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 i'm also curious if i shhould buy now or wait for an updated version. Link to post Share on other sites
umop-apisdn 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 i'm also curious if i shhould buy now or wait for an updated version.Well the game itself won't be re-released in Xbox format, but to make any Xbox 1.0 game 360 compatible, there is a download required.If that's not ready when Stacked ships, then someone's dropped the ball...

Thank you again for your help.You'll need to wait for an update I believe but it's in the works.And if you're still trying to figure out where the game is available, go to this page: http://www.mtv.com/games/holdem/stacked/buyitnow.jhtml Link to post Share on other sites
semaj550 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Wait for an update that's in the works?Yeah, given how lightning fast this game was brought to market I definately believe we'll be seeing an update some time soon. If they weren't in a hurry to provide something that we're going to pay for I can only imagine how slow they'll be to provide something that we won't be paying for...

umop-apisdn 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 You'll need to wait for an update I believe but it's in the works.Oh well, guess I'm not buying that anytime soon... Kudos to your development team.Shouldn't the game's incompatibility with the 360 be listed somewhere on the website? Searched planet Stacked after the first post on this forum and couldn't find anything referring to it. Even the PSP has a version release date. Link to post Share on other sites

Searched planet Stacked after the first post on this forum and couldn't find anything referring to it. Even the PSP has a version release date.the game is made for regular xbox, regular xbox games dont have 360 compatibility listed when you go and buy them but if u saw wat was said an update is in the worksas of now its tough to even find the game so within a few weeks it should be ready......hopefully Link to post Share on other sites

So, again, it's up to Microsoft. But if they're smart they'll add it quick! Link to post Share on other sites
AceJackOffS 0 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 so now the game is out and as far as i can tell it is not backwards compatible, (not on the list, eb games guy said no) so I will not be buying it.on another note has anyone got it to work on 360? Link to post Share on other sites

There is supposed to be a new one soon, but I would put the odds of Stacked being on it at something like 1000 to 1 or so Link to post Share on other sites
