Definitely TES III Morrowind. Great RPG for its time and a game with some great memories.

Speaking of new I just talked to a Microsoft Customer Support guy and he said that the fall update will be coming out Dec. 3rd.

Really? I just got off the phone with Microsoft support guy and they said the next generation Xbox is coming out on December 4th. Seems like bad planning on their part. Also, God told Pat Robertson the world would be ending on December 2nd... So Xbox and gaming in general is just trivial at this point.

My uncle (who is totally a GameStop manager and owns a NeoGeo) says you are both wrong and Microsoft is going to be software-only like Sega.

Ok I called Microsoft back and they're not squawking. But if I managed to get one employ to spill then someone is bound to get the same thing. Seriously try and confirm this before you start ragging.

A time frame around December 3rd would actually be a good time to release the update. A lot of significant game releases have already come out, so there is no need to worry about the update red-ringing consoles before people buy games.

I'm sure that Microsoft will have some servers set aside to deliver the update. An early-to-mid December release would allow current owners to update well before Christmas and will ultimately help to relieve server stress before people who get 360s for Christmas go online.

Just playing with you. I really just wanted to use the "X has a NeoGeo" line, since that was the lie de jour in Jr. High.

I just got off the phone with Michael Pachter and he said that Microsoft will be out of business before December. Also that Wii is going to be sold out forever.

Am I the only one that really liked Destroy all humans? it was funny, and fun. Really fun. The weapons were pretty creative, and the controls kinda sucked but who cares? They ARE still videogames, you know, joystiq.

I don't know. All the Xbox games I wanted to play I own in their original format, and all the ones I really want to play aren't backwards compatible. I'm looking at you Oddworld Stranger's Wrath, Second Sight, and The King of Fighters 2003 (don't be fooled by the official list... only 2002 works!).

It would also be totally pointless for them to release Breakdown for Xbox Originals when you can still buy it brand new for $5 US.

Is Stubbs on there? Stubbs the Zombie would be nice.

The last Mechwarrior game might be fun to, if you could play over Live.

They could start by making the Timesplitters games backwards compatible in the first place. I still have the real games, and I'd love to be able to play 'em on my 360. (at least the first Timesplitters will play on my PS3.)

Considering the licensing hell that game has to go through, yes, sadly, it is too much to ask. (Believe me, I feel your pain: I paid $70 for a PS2 copy with no instructions.)

Y'know I do have some fond, fond memories of playing Intellivision. Those lovable paddles and key pads. Games like Sea Battle and the D&D games...

But sweet lord I would never, ever, want to play them again at this point...

The Brothers in Arms games would be nice. I foolishly gave my brother my old Xbox so now I can't play them. Although for the price I'd pay to buy them on the 360 I could probably just buy a used Xbox.

It's the same with the PSOne games offered on PSN - most of the PSOne's greatest hits are still absent. And Nintendo's Virtual Console seems to be completely random.

I'm not justifying Microsoft's selection of games, I'm just saying crappy choice seems to be the norm.

It was this star wars game where you played one of the "elite clones" leading your little squad.
