Microsoft really are doing well adding amazing features to Xbox One. Most exciting console Imo. They hit it out of the park with BC.

Odd addition considering its already on X1. But it sold really well on 360. An under rated release in my opinion, the second half of the campaign is pretty good.

An 880x720 version of the game to join the X1's 720p version of it. Why? I guess you can pick up the X360 version of ghosts for a fiver and check it out before committing the 12 or so euro for the X1 version of the game.

X1 version also had better graphics and the most stable frame rate of all port.

34th most requested BC game at the moment. Above games like Splinter Cell Conviction, FFXIII, Ghost Recon Future Soldier, Crysis 2 etc.
You're probably forgetting that over 10m people already bought the game on 360, so no need to pick up the game because most will already own it.

Very true Barozi a lot of people have it there, but my only thought is now on a single console you have 2 versions of the same game which do not have cross platform multiplayer, so when someone goes to a store to buy a copy of ghosts to play with their friends on the X1 they have to make sure they know which version of the game their friends are playing and not go for the cheaper option if their friends didn't or visa versa.

I guess it is cool though if you had loved X360 ghosts and were keeping your old machine set up for that, the X1 will likely give a boost to the already slick version on the X360 and let you finally put your older system onto the shelf of nostalgia :)
