Microsoft have posted an update to their Xbox 360 backwards compatibility games list. 39 new titles, and 9 updated ones have been introduced.
John Porcaro, a Microsoft employee posting via the GamerScoreBlog, writes:
It's interesting to note that this is the first time the list includes titles that are not on the market yet for Xbox, with Spy Hunter: Nowhere to Run, The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning, and Lego Star Wars II. And of these, Lego Star Wars II also has an Xbox 360 SKU – another first for the BC list.
The list includes Burnout 3: Takedown, Counter Strike, Dead to Rights, ESPN Major League Baseball, Tom Clancy´s Ghost Recon - Island Thunder, Lego Star Wars II, Mortal Kombat: Deception, Over the Hedge, Rogue Trooper, Serious Sam, and Spy Hunter: Nowhere to Run. It also includes updates to Half Life 2, The Incredibles: Rise of the Underminer, and several more.
