But this is thanks to the xbox emulation?
No chance of other plattforms on it?

The only problem I can see with this is the amount of hdd space it will take up, but other then that it looks sweet for those of use who haven' t played those games because we didn' t have the original xbox. Although this won' t be great for everyone.

Sony should ramp it up and offer the same service to all PS3 owners ;

Exactly, especially as most 360 owners still have the 20gb Hdd (which is really 12gb..). The 12gb is just enough to hold a few demos never mind full xbox games.

Does this mean , i can finally play shenmue II ??

This is a very good initiative by MS and at 1200 gamer points isn' t very costly either . Now just give me shenmue II , panzer dragoon orta and jet set radio , QUICKLY .

You know that those 3 games have been available on BC for quite some time now.

Great idea, but shame theres no support for 3rd party HDDs. You' d have to delete your £10 games if a new demo came out, or only buy 1 or 2.

Expect an XBox360 Backwards Compatibility Pack to come out soon, along with the Core, Premium, Elite and Arcade ones. I' m sure Peter Moore' d be turning in his grave. (what, hes not dead?)

That' s awesome, especially at that price point. I can see myself already buying a bunch of games, especially because I sold some of my favourites after I got a 360 because of it' s shitty BC.

Sony is doing something similar with PS1 games, but I am sure Microsoft can put out games faster due to their superior online system. But yeah, they' re gonna have to do something about the space problems, which they themselves created with the 20 gig HD

From Wired:



Beginning December 4, the " Xbox Originals" feature will offer a catalog of last generation' s best titles, starting with Halo, Psychonauts, Crimson Skies, and Fable.

Games will cost 1200 Microsoft Points, or $15, each.

Microsoft also said that in celebration of Xbox Live' s 5th anniversary, all Xbox Live members will get one free Arcade game download on November 15. Gamers who have been with the service since its launch in 2002 will get 500 free Microsoft Points.


I' m glad Psychonauts is on there, because I never see it in stores when I look around for it. But in general I would still prefer to have the actual disc, box and manual.
