Xbox360 to launch with 200 backward compatible games (UPDATE: 7 Tom Clancy Games added)

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!

Ye I understand what ur saying Joe

Alright! Now let' s work on getting you understood.

i meant how much space on the " hardrive" the emulations and stuff will take.

No shenmue,no panzer dragon oorta.

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

I dont really care, i sold all my xbox games :P Except Nightfire and Rally Sports challenge which was hidden in a stack of cd cases.

What?!?!?!?! NO SPLINTER CELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! F*CK!

does seem weird splinter cell didnt make the cut, but i guess you' ll have to try and see when the box arrives.

well ihave some good news for halo fans, bungie actualy confirmed that halo 1 and 2 will benefit from some lift up, advance AA and the game will run on 720p !! good isn' t it?? well i don' t really care but i like to make weirdos happy

i don' t care much for backward capatible games but if u want it good for u

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.

"If you knew how good I am you would think I'm modest."

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!

yes and no burnout as i have heard. Your just going to have to wait for those games to emulated from microsoft, sucks dont it?

Change is inevitable. Except from a vending machine.

Viva La Revolution! erm, I mean Viva La Wii!

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?

Videogaming is the contemporary interactive pasttime.

Woo, Sonic Mega Collection!

What?!?!?!?! NO SPLINTER CELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! F*CK!

I agree no Splinter Cell on 360 what kind of crap is that?

List updated with the following veyr pleasing titles

* Tom Clancy' s Ghost Recon 2
* Tom Clancy' s Ghost Recon 2 Summit Strike
* Tom Clancy' s Rainbow Six 3
* Tom Clancy' s Rainbow Six 3 Black Arrow
* Tom Clancy' s Splinter Cell
* Tom Clancy' s Splinter Cell Chaos Theory
* Tom Clancy' s Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow

And thus Rampage becomes a VERY happy man

I heard Tom Clancy did the programming himself. Nothing makes me want to play a game like some asshat author' s name on the box!

I wanted Burnout but I suppose because they are doing ' new' Burnout for 360 they won' t let you play the old one on it.

I wanted Burnout

Tom Clancy had nothing to do with Burnout, thus the reason it is not supported. Maybe a lesser author like Michael Crichton or Dr. Suess would be willing to take Burnout under their wing.

Yeah, cause Sega was all about backward compatibility!!

its funny being able to play Playstation 1 games on my Dreamcast but not saturn games.
