Xbox Originals - What do you want to see?

[Strafe Mcgee]

Ninja Gaiden Black, Pirates and Black went up today and I was thinking that I'd love to have a copy of Panzer Dragoon Orta for my 360. I also really want the street fighter anniversary edition, but since Street Fighter 2's getting released again on Live arcade I doubt I'm ever gonna see it The originals they've got up already are great- Burnout 3, Psychonauts, Fahrenheit, Fable and... er, Crimson Skies. What games would u like to see on xbox originals?

Ps. Buy ninja gaiden! If you can't beat it then YOU ARE WEAK!

Marvel vs. Capcom 2! Marvel vs. Capcom 2!!

Morrowind, Jade Empire, KOTOR.

XBox Gaiden was easy. Beat it on the NES (not an emulator), then come talk to us, scooter. (see what I did there?)

I'd like to see the new Prince of Persia series (SoT, WW, TT). I own Two Thrones (it doesn't run on the 360), and SoT I loaned out and never got back. I didn't play WW, but I might be coaxed into it just to see what happened in the middle.

HEh, the story is the worst part of WW. But the platforming rocks.

I'd like to see Onimusha Genma. This game got no love because of the initial failure of the Xbox, but it's a far more than a straight port of Warlords and is vastly superior.

i loved BLACK on my ps2, and im happy they put it up on Live, but im really debating between ninja gaiden and BLACK, oh and i also have beaten the original ninja gaidens, to bad i sold all my old NES shit

I was going to play the originals on Xbox gaiden, but I couldn't find one of the scarabs so couldn't unlock it. I spent hours hunting for that damn thing! Is it still tougher on the nes?

I dunno about gaiden on xbox being 'easy' though. It's a bit easier now that I've learnt the fighting system, but it's still one of the toughest 3d action games I've ever played. I spent a week trying to get past Alma's first incarnation first time I played it. Damn she was tough!

Pop:WW was probably my favorite of the series, despite the metal soundtrack and gratuitous swearing. Running from the Dahaka and the interesting twist after you beat the Goddess plus the new combat system made it my favorite.

if you ask me they should be focusing on games that are not backwards combatible, as far as i know most if not all the games thus far put up are indeed playable on a 360. indogo prophecy i loved and since i can't seem to find my copy i'm tempted to download it so i can beat it again simply because lots of little things change the game story.

personally i want to see nhl hits 2003 on it because while it is backwards compatible the saveing and loading is screwed on every copy i've tried from gamestop.

i second jade empire. also a game called "sudeki" i've actually been curious to finish since i rented it years ago, it's not backwards compatible so i havn't had the chance.

 

[ohnoitschris]

I'd like to see these games have better compression or Microsoft give me a free bigger hard drive if they think I'm going to start plopping down $15 a game, when I could just go out to Gamestop and pick them up on DVDs. Once you buy a game or two on the 20GB hard drive, you're through.

If I'm expected to drop $180 on the 120GB HDD so I can play all of the wonderful Xbox games I didn't buy before, it's time for someone at MS to lay off the opium.

Agreed.

 

[Jannix]

Bloodwake. I always had problems with the DVD, but i always loved the game, If i could get it on direct download, mores the sweeter!

I would like a grand theft auto game for download as running killing innocent people (virtually) is very fun. Then again i am only 15 and if i can get it by buying 1200 MPs at my local game retailer then a 6-9 year olds could easily do the same and be exposed to the mature violence parents would not want them to see. as there is no real age security to Xbox live marketplace i will never see them on there.

Sorry but that is bullshit. The Xbox has incredibly good parental controls and they can easily be implemented. They can stop a child from even starting a game that is rated 18, 16, 15 whatever, you can disable chat, you can disable xbox live and also prevent any kind of purchase being made on Marketplace.

The tools are there, its the dumbass parents who are not willing to use them.

"Difficult" is hard to define. In short, the NES version was way tougher because of precision jumping, scrolling enemies that reappear, birds, and iffy play control.

Most NES games were like this. This actually ties into my theory of PvErs vs. PvPers (I was raised in a time where the whole point was to beat the game, but now, beating the game is a foregone conclusion. You just hope it lasts more than ten hours. Thus, multiplayer. But enough on that.)

For me, XBox Gaiden got easy as soon as I got the first sword upgrade (I forget the name of the move, I want to say Flying Swallow or something like that). Then I got the flail, and it got even easier. But really, I just put that comment off to make fun of epeen flexing.

If I had to choose games that I don't own and that are compatible with the 360, I would say dreamfall and silent hill 2. I already own dreamfall but it would be nice to play it with better sound, bigger screen, and with a better fps.

Anyway, what I would like the most would be if Microsoft continues to release patches for games and fix some of the games that don't run well at all on the 360.

 

[Irrok the Wide]

Gunvalkyrie would be nice I guess. But it doesn't matter b/c I'm not going to pay $$$ to use LIVE just to update my genki ass 360. I want to play Shenmue 2 and all the other 48 awsome xbox games that I own.

Is there a disc I can order to make my 360 system more backword compatable?

Nope. Get X-Box Live and wait for a patch.

Edit: Just found out Microsoft said that "soon" you will be able to order a disc for this from them.
