Game room not compatible with xbox arcade games

This came as a bit of a surprise, with microsoft announcing their new 3d video arcade ‘game room’ you’d presume they’re improving their xbox arcade experience, but sadly you’d be wrong.

Any xbox arcade games you’ve already purchased, will NOT will available in Game Room, so to play them in the game room you’d have to repurchase them!

Infact they’re givin us the impression that game room’s goin to be solely for old ‘retro’ style games, so think space invaders, doubledragon, ninja turtles etc…

When im on my xbox i have absolutely no interest in playing ‘retro’ games, and to be honest i couldn’t care less bout the game room. Microsofts recent additions have proved pretty fruitless so far, with the addition of facebook and twitter, it’s cool for bout 5 mins, then i’l never use them again.

They should focus on something all of us benefit from, not just the USA and stop tryin to squeeze more money out of us.

*rant over*
