backwards compatibility should be finished by now!

I looked at the list of Xbox games already finished and it just seems obscene that a game which was a land mark of its time is being ignored while every itieration of NBA Live or NHL/NFL/MLB and the like are compatible. Even more infuriating was to know that Barbie™ Horse Adventures™ Wild Horse Rescue

and

• Cabela's® Big Game Hunter™ 2005 Adventures
• Cabela's Dangerous Hunts™
• Cabela's® Dangerous Hunts™ 2
• Cabela's Outdoor Adventures™ 06
• Cabela's Deer Hunt™ 2005 Season
• Cabela's Deer Hunt™ 2004 Season

(all from the xbl site of compatable games)took precedent over it :P

I geuss all I can do is whine and thats what I am doing..

There are already a lot of games on the BC list, and MS won't make any money by adding more games to it, as most games that will be played using it are either already owned by the person, or will be bought pre-owned. With MS wanting to retire the original xbox and only promote the 360, combined with xbox originals being made available for download (which they CAN make money from) I wouldn't expect to see any more games added to the BC list.

As the previous poster said - they don't try specifically to make one game work. If they find several games all don't run for the same problem, they will try to come up with a fix for the problem that gets a bunch of games to work.

The Warriors would had been nice, especially as saw couple weeks ago at best buy for cheap, but too late now.

do yourself a favor and buy one used. I picked one up for $50.

I can play my Warriors and Riddick again.

Microsoft did a decent job with the BC list, but you can't expect every game...

Original Xbox game prices do go up on the used market once they get BC. Whenever a new BC list comes out, I look at the games added and would buy them if I saw one that interested me for cheap. When JSRF went up, I bought it off a guy on half.com for real cheap. The next day he cancelled the order and relisted it for like twice the money.

I still have my old Xbox and will break it out once or twice a year.
