360 Back-Compat Updated Again 36
Despite news many months ago that they weren't going to be doing much in the way of updating anymore, there's a new raft of old games that you'll be able to play on your Xbox 360. Some of the highlights include: "JSRF: Jet Set Radio Future, MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf, Project Gotham Racing 2, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, and Silent Hill 2: Restless Dreams"

DOAXV? (Score:1, Funny)
This game may suck as a "real" volleyball game, but it's fun and easy to play and it's great to watch. The casino isn't half-bad either.
In any case, it's an excellent 3D "slideshow" to impress people. And when I say people, I mean guys.
Too bad DOAXV2 has so much "loading" crap. The damn console has a fuckin' hard drive, install the damn game on it!

Still some glitches (Score:3, Interesting)
The game is still playable, but it's not quite the same thing as it is on the original hardware.

so these are glitches after the new update? I got a JSRF standalone disk after the first one,
the framerate problems (esp. in that stage w/ the big twisted dragon tower) were very serious.

When you're done talking out of your ass, you might take a second and re-read (or just plain read) TFS.
These are backwards-compatibility updates. They allow you to play original Xbox games on the 360. So no, it's not a marketing ploy, it's called customer satisfaction. They make no money by providing these updates, they do it for gamers who own Xbox games and still want to play them.

Nice link there, Zonk.
Seriously, I've been here for "many months" and I don't recall seeing anything saying "no moar back compat!" If anything, I've seen Microsoft insisting the opposite, and I also remember people being surprised that Microsoft was still working on it when their last update came out a few months ago.
So I have to ask: where are you getting your information?
