I know some maynot like BC or have some issues with the list. But Microsoft is making good on keeping it’s comittment on the BC issue. Alot of games like Physconauts, Shenmue 2, Soul Caliber 2, Ultimate Spider man and other games on this list that are great additions to the list.
The new addtions should help flesh out the BC on the 360 to a degree. Of course you cant please everyone. But it’s still headed in the right direction fo sho!

Shame theres still no Morrowind but for what its worth, they have done a great job with this latest update.
I’m back off the monitor now and using a SDtv so I’ll be playing some of the older titles again. I may even pick some up off the webb, they’re dirt cheap doncha know

With new titles every year, adding backward compatibility for sports games doesn’t seem to be too high a priority for Microsoft, but with EA releasing MVP 07 only for the PS2, I hope the 06 version is added to the next update.

The only game I would ever be interested in becoming BC is Unreal Championship.
…it will never happen because of contracts with Epic.
