Zone of the Enders, Rumble Roses XX join Xbox backward compatibility

Today, Larry Hryb, Director of Programming for Xbox Live, announced that Xbox 360 games Rumble Roses XX and Zone of the Enders HD Collection are now backward compatible on Xbox One. The two games aren't the heavy-hitters fans were hoping for, but they're still a lot of fun.

Backward compatibility opens Xbox One to a huge variety of games, spanning three generations of Microsoft's consoles. Despite hardware differences, it remains an outstanding feature, allowing a select library of older games to be played on Xbox One. While the majority of them are Xbox 360 titles, there are also some original Xbox games in there.

Rumble Roses XX

Rumble Roses XX is a female professional wrestling fighting game developed by Konami. It's quite a good game once you can get past the way characters are depicted.
