Xbox360 to launch with 200 backward compatible games (UPDATE: 7 Tom Clancy Games added) - Nov 11, 2005 19:18
DA LIST YO! along with a link to the BC Q&A

At least I can safly get rid of the old Xbox now that I see most all my games are on the list. I' m curious how much of the HD it will use tho per game.

That' s quite suprising and impressive. I was thinking along the lines of only 20 games BC at launch. Guess I was wrong.

I can' t believe that they are making old sports games compatable. Once their title year is done, the games are obsolete and they end up in the used bin EN MASSE.

Ye I understand what ur saying Joe. I' m pretty happy actually, most of the games I like for xbox have backwards compatibility, that' s pretty sick. Mass X, they' re not gonna have HDTV support, but from what I have read, they' re gonna look much better, when it comes to lightning effects and all that stuff that polish the games, so u can rest assured that they r gonna look a lil better. I' m sure they' re gonna update the list of games, as more ppl will resuest them.

My guess is its easier to make it HD than it is to add lighting effects, but what would i know!

I won' t be playing my xbox 1 games that much on my 360, but it would be nice to know some other things. So we know it is 720P and has AA, but how much AA? And how about the texture filtering? I guess we' ll just have to wait and see for ourselves.

The reason they have for example. Madden 05, 04, 03, 02, 01 is because it is extremely easy to do the emulation for other games that use basically the exact same engine.

I' m kind of surprised they don' t have DOA Ulitmate on there yet, and Shenmue 2.

Oh well, I' m sure they' ll add them soon.

They should make Shenmue 2 run in 720p. Then they should add support for the Dreamcast Shenmue 1 and make that run in 720p.

I agree, though I have no plans to abandon my current Xbox. Emulating the Splinter Cell graphics engine is probably a bitch! That' s my guess. Hell, that' s the only reason they could include Kabuki Warriors and not SC!

There are way too many of my XBOX games missing from the list!!!

There will be no move (for me) to XBOX360 without a near-total backwards compatible list...and Mercenaries, Doom 3, and Lord of the Rings: Third Age were not listed!!![:' (]

Until M$ gets it stuff together, I will stay where I am at...too much $$ for a less-than-promised delivery!!!

Where' s SEGA when you need them?
