Well those stopped working on the 360 BC back around the time Xbox Live was discontinued for the original Xbox, so who knows if Microsoft even still has records for if you bought it. (But they did work the first few years of 360 BC).

Sakurazuka posted:

Halo 2 had a few downloadable map packs, and there were one or two others. There were also like 10 early XBLA type titles on the original Xbox - these required you to first buy a starter disc that included like 5 games and then had a storefront to buy and download more titles.

I play with a regular group at least once a week for way longer than one hour. I already own a Xbox ( and PS4 ) so I'm not going to buy a XboneX any time soon. The "lol no games" brigade is pretty boring at this stage though so I"m really just winding them up to see if they'll bring anything new ( they won't ).

They never tire.

There was an issue of the Official XBox Magazine that came with a disc that had a bunch of extra outfits for Dead or Alive 3 on it.

Halo 2 had 11 DLC maps released. 9 of which were put onto a disc compilation and were eventually rolled into the Vista port and Master Chief Collection.

The other 2 maps were remakes of the Halo 1 maps Hang Em High and Tombstone. They were never included in any future re-releases, and ever since XBL got shut down for the original Xbox, they are presumably lost forever.

This is kind of cool. I assume the digital licenses are only dlc since you couldn't download games on og xbox. Man, the highlight of the microsoft conference is I will be able to play midtown madness 3 again. I think Xbone lost e3.

You could purchase and download a selection of the backwards compatible titles on the 360 itself. That's what they're talking about.

That makes more sense. I knew they had a version of GTA: SA for download on the 360 but thought it was a mobile port. I didn't realize they had other original xbox games for dl.

360 had both the mobile port and the "Xbox Originals" download, but the latter got pulled when the mobile port went up. Licensing issues.

Seemed fine to me. Not really sure what people were expecting. We knew before the show that they had embraced the whole all games on both PC and Console thing. I'm still a fan of the ecosystem stays the same, but you can upgrade your hardware model of consoles that it seems like all of them are going for now. It works great with phones/etc.

Original xbox bc is surprising and kind of cool. I hope crimson skies is on the list.

Most exciting thing for me in the show was the new Ori.

It's hilarious to me that Cuphead is finally dated, I'm glad they made fun of themselves a bit with that trailer. Still look great.

Sea of Thieves still doesn't look that appealing to me. Don't think I need a pirate MMO.

I don't know why Microsoft is bothering to pay for all these timed exclusives, does that really move anyone?

BOSS BATTLES DID NOTHING WRONG
I like that they put their games on PC. It's good.

This year's show was so disappointing tho. Microsoft is one of the big three! They're supposed to wow us with exciting new first party exclusives, but they're just reheating the same Xbox 360 franchises. It's sad how every single game that doesn't fit that mold gets canceled. And then they even killed Fable. They literally had nothing new to show from the first party world today. Just "oh hey, crackdown 3 is finally coming out, and here's the yearly Forza!"

If all you have is an Xbox you'll have plenty of great third party games to play. But yikes, who is gonna buy a bonx at this point besides a handful of die-hard fans who are upgrading?
