- Evilstanley, on 11/28/2007, -2/+27Awesome. I can't wait to pop in Shrek Super Party.
Who got the ***** job at Microsoft making mostly worthless old titles backwards compatible? - SenatorPenguin, on 11/28/2007, -0/+23In case it goes down, getting very slow.

Zathura - Lixie, on 11/28/2007, -0/+20My copy of Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath is getting a bit dusty Mr. Nelson, and this list isn't doing anything to fix it.
- Patogrande, on 11/28/2007, -2/+17Where's my Timesplitters?
- HCviolence, on 11/28/2007, -2/+15I would have liked to have seen Deus Ex 2 or the matrix:path of Neo but nice additions none the less
- formulathree, on 11/28/2007, -1/+13I had the same problem. Just submerge it under water for a few minutes.
- TrojanGuy, on 11/28/2007, -5/+15Woot NFL2K5!
- mattcoady, on 11/28/2007, -0/+8They didn't make that game a priority. They build a better emulation engine and certain games just work.
- spargo, on 11/28/2007, -1/+9Didn't work, and now it's getting my TV stand all wet.
- quaunaut, on 11/28/2007, -0/+8No Beyond Good & Evil still makes me cry.
- dandonia, on 11/28/2007, -0/+8i have 28 games and non of them are on that list! doh! still good to see they still working on it - not that my crystal xbox is gonna stop working any time soon, well maybe it has i havnt played since i got my 360 a year and a half ago
- quaunaut, on 11/28/2007, -0/+7They don't make games BC by choice: They make certain technologies able to work, which allows certain games.
- Cerebral, on 11/28/2007, -0/+6It was but if they are going to offer Xbox games for sale on XBL Marketplace then they still have to work on the BC issue. Just because they make the game digital doesn't mean that it will magically play.
- piratearggghhh, on 11/28/2007, -2/+8With the launch of the downloadable games service, the list will only grow bigger.
- rjmoon25, on 11/28/2007, -0/+5I can't believe they still dont have backward compatibility for MechAssualt!!
There going to make me pay to download it from them once that service starts up arent they?
Stupid Flanders! - whiteguysamurai, on 11/28/2007, -0/+5Only a few more to go!
- xino, on 11/28/2007, -0/+5This might be why some of the less popular games get added
from the xbox.com backwards compatibility FAQ
"Games that share engines and technology have been in some cases easier to certify for backward compatibility and have made the launch lineup as a result." - skullk, on 11/28/2007, -0/+5I need Rallisport Challenge 2. I miss that game so much. :(
- sevenalive, on 11/28/2007, -0/+5Only one i had was goldeneye rouge agent, and i don't have it anymore. I still got everything or nothing, and i wanna finish it you bastards!!!
I got like 3 games still not on the list. Stop making all those damn old ass sports games, ***** who needs to play NFL 2k2? or Nascar 2002 - matthafling, on 11/28/2007, -1/+5What a worthless list. How about Prince of Persia 2 and 3?
- AwesomeAndy, on 11/28/2007, -0/+4All the announced games are already backwards compatible games. Don't expect that to change.
- Cerebral, on 11/28/2007, -0/+3Yea I was thinking smaller considering just like the MPAA/RIAA the video game industry is no different wanting you to pay for a different "digital" version of the same game you already own.
- Echuta, on 11/28/2007, -0/+3Uh oh milliamp, you've upset the groupthink.
- duke1981, on 11/28/2007, -1/+4Thats awesome. But I remember reading that Microsoft was going to cut back on BC's starting in '08. Is this still true or did I miss read something? I think it was posted on Gamasutra or digg cant remember.
- SSCrow, on 11/28/2007, -0/+3Its too bad the AntiAliasing Kills Chaos Theory CoOp.
- jonoble, on 03/27/2009, -2/+5Still no Midtown Madness 3! :-(
Nice to know they're still working on expanding the list though. - 2000, on 11/28/2007, -2/+5I, too, wooted when I read that! I never thought they would do it. APF2K8 is gonna start collecting some dust on my shelf.
- Optimaximal, on 11/28/2007, -1/+4He didn't say to put the bloody stand in with it...
- Optimaximal, on 11/28/2007, -1/+4Honestly? Those two are easily to of the worst games released - the former was the paramount of disappointment and the latter was just, well, *****!
- inactive, on 11/29/2007, -0/+2Still no MechAssault? Oh well, NFL 2k5 makes up for it. It's too bad EA had to kill off the better football series as soon as it hit its stride.
- tartina, on 11/28/2007, -1/+3Greet news!
- Wolfbeta, on 11/28/2007, -3/+5For ***** sake. Get DDR on the BC list so I can toss the monstrosity that is the Xbox into storage.
- dasdef, on 11/29/2007, -0/+2dont know why you're getting buried. IM WAITING FOR THIS GAME TOO.
- zoomtechtv, on 11/28/2007, -2/+4ESPN NFL 2k5, I'm all good now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- aerotive, on 11/28/2007, -1/+3Boo no Destroy All Humans 2.
- fetuscollector6, on 11/28/2007, -0/+2I was thinking that too.
- AwesomeAndy, on 11/28/2007, -0/+2I don't really think that's valid. If they can't get a game to run on the 360, it's not like a digital copy will, since they've already said there won't be any changes to the games. If they have to recode a game to make it run, they're probably not going to be selling it for the announced $15. Hell, even in the music industry, there's little stopping you from going to the store, buying a CD, and ripping a copy of it. They may not *want* you to do this, but it's well within your rights to do so.
- NeoMatrixJR, on 11/28/2007, -0/+2I believe I once read that it depends on the game publisher too. The game's publisher has to give MS the go ahead to make it BC. From what I understood EA wasn't going to allow this for most of their games so people would have to by new versions.
- itsJALbert, on 11/28/2007, -1/+3Bard's Tale is one of the funniest games of all time... glad to see it made it through (although it shares the engine with BG:DA, so go figure)
- Karyyk, on 11/28/2007, -0/+2Yay, Armed and Dangerous, boo, still no Castlevania...
- g4blows, on 11/29/2007, -0/+2Woot! Playboy mansion.
- Christbait, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1My god what a ***** update. Most of them are games of mind-numbingly boring American "sports".
What about Driver 3? Operation Flashpoint: Elite? (Yeah ***** port, just with better graphics than the PC counterpart but it would be nice to see how it fares on Xbox Live.) and so many more games? - virtualmadden, on 11/28/2007, -2/+3Damn it! I just sold NFL 2K5 and my Logitech Wireless Controller.
- MatchStick, on 11/28/2007, -0/+1still no Driv3r or The Wariors, M$ make failings.
- zenubio, on 11/28/2007, -1/+2I'm still waiting on this one too. Every month I send the BC team an email requesting it. Want to help?
- xino, on 11/28/2007, -0/+1You should look closer then because Call of Duty 1-3 runs on Xbox 360 as well as Splinter Cell 1-4.
- brihar73, on 11/28/2007, -1/+2Still no Tron 2.0?! Come on, people. You know the visual effects were cool!
- dasdef, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1I WANT RALLISPORT CHALLENGE 2 GOD DAMNIT
- jeet404, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1NOT just normal water...but deionized water! DUH!
- bajesus, on 11/28/2007, -2/+3all I asked for was X-men Legends. Damn You Microsoft!
