Original Xbox Games Playable on Xbox 360

Deep Lake is an OutRun 2 track, is it not? Not OutRun 2 Special Tours, and presumably not OutRun Coast to Coast (assuming this game even exists and is a next-gen arcade game).

Confusing.

not confusing at all - Coast2Coast contains both Outrun2 AND Outrun2 SP. That pic is what my mate sent me and is of the PS2 version. it's an alpha and it does that when going between stages. it can't be of the xbox one screwing up when streaming as that doesn't explain the kerrayzee tyre tracks

it's not a next-gen arcade game either

Been playing GTAIII on my 360 yesterday and it looks much much better than I remember it being.

IS SFAC working yet?

Oh really? I guess I'm buying a PSP after all, then.

Oh cool, had not bothered with this as I had read that it really suffered from the emulation with frame rate problems and such ! Will give it a try tonight !

indeed. this was also mentioned (after i found out about it though) on Game Central. CVG's given it a sentence, too, but it's a bit vague:

oh god someone tell us! although i doubt it. you'd think they'd go for all the live-enabled games first, with the odd offline 'big-sellers' like halo 1 and stuff.

i played this on sunday after around 6 months, got beat by this guy 20 times but got 2 on him. 'twas magic. looks like my xbox is here to stay at least until SFAC works on the 360...

I'm predicting that there will be an update soon, for some reason the xbox version of Prince of Persia got put back til a week after the PS2 version. Hopefully it will be 360 playavle

If this is the case, why bother calling it Coast to Coast at all considering arcade SP contains both the original route and the SP route anyway (you can choose which you want to play on one of the select screens by pressing View Change I think).

US Backward Compatibility list updated!

Adds all the Splinter Cell and Ghost Recon games!

I assume a Euro version soon... they probably just gotta change the game identification to detect the PAL versions.

true. i personally have no idea! i'm only relaying what i've been told. but don't forget that outrun2 sp doesn't have the mission modes that the xbox outrun2 had, so that's one thing from outrun2 that'd carry over...

Does it bypass regional coding, I tried my US Halo 2 on my PAL 360 and it worked last night.

[Soi]

It doesn't bypass region coding. Halo 2 is region free.

Nah. Halo 2 is just a region free game.
