United Kingdom Backwards compatibility games list versus United States

Hello. I might not be the first and might not be last to say this but. When you go to the Xbox website for the United States there are more games available to purchase rather than the United Kingdom has way less titles to choose and buy. And I love Xbox
don’t get me wrong it seems that the available by region problem seem to somewhat that the US is a bit selfish for those titles being available. It is an injustice. Because why taunt other countries about games that the home country of Microsoft will get them
first. For example: Breakdown, Phyconauts and many More to name.

Hi,

The games aren't excluded due to the U.S being selfish, in fact it has more to do with complex licencing issues. This is the reason some games are not available in the UK and EU.
