The great thing for me is that I never owned an original Xbox, so I've only played small bits of each game at a friend's place. Now I get to play through the entire games, so I'm pretty excited. One word of warning: the JSRF/Sega GT 2002 combo disc is reportedly not working. That's the one I picked up a while back in anticipation of JSRF eventually becoming BC, and since it was only $2. Luckily there's a Gamestop nearby that has JSRF standalone for $4, so I'll be getting it on the way home from work tonight, along with PDO.

Nice. I can't wait to play Panzer Dragoon again. It was one of the few XBOX games I kept when I sold it off. Now I just need Morrowind on that list and I'll be all set.

The tracking info has finally updated on UPS. They're now saying Tuesday delivery. Apparently it was sitting on the dock for more than 24 hours. What a bunch of crap.

Did the fix this yet?

Am I the only one that's having problems with Mercenaries locking up the 360 every so often?

I'm still hoping for Street Fighter Anniversay Collection to be added to the compat. list. Glad to see the Otogi titles get added, and Orta.

You got almost everything backwards.
Street Fighter is on the BC list now and Otogi is NOT, which is why I gave it the tumbs-down - not because I don't like the game, but because they didn't make it BC. You were right about Orta though.

Got a call from UPS tonight that my Xbox will be delivered tomorrow, sent it out on the 10th.

Anything in particular I should look for/do when I get it back?

The mini golf game is pretty easy if you play it enough times. I certainly expected more for 800 points.

Uc2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :d

Still no vodoo vince on the BC list... that's the last game I'm waiting for. My son wants to play it and I'm not wanting to hook up the original Xbox...

That game is single handedly responsible for my daughter saying "son of a bitch." I have never cursed at a game like i cursed at that one. A fun game, but so frustrating sometimes.

Not yet -- this is the latest news I could find:

That's too bad. I had a mini golf game on my PC years ago (probably 10) that I loved. Having just gotten my 360, this was going to be my first Live purchase. Looks like I'm going to pass on this on for now.

the last mini golf game i enjoyed was on the apple IIe. :lol:

Like I did, I would check the back and look at the mfr date of the repaired unit. Did you remember or write down the mfr date on your unit before you sent it to Microsoft? Also, like Michael Corvin suggested, make sure the serial number is the same so that if you have to send it back, you'll be covered under your warranty.

360 Elite opened up

The Command & Conquer 3 demo is up. It is 1GB.

A post at CAG says that B2G1F on used games and accessories is returning to GS/EB 4/29-5/06

Excellent! Now I just need to find a GS/EB that has BG&E, POP2, and POP3 for gamecube ;)

Good luck with that. I've been to 4 EB/GS around here in the past month and the gamecube selection is awful.

Yeah, I went to the local GS, Vintage Stock, and Game Xchange yesterday. I think only VS had the 2 POPs and none of them had BG&E.

I'll still hang onto the Xbox discs in the hopes that an additional future BC update will happen.

I managed to find Panzer Dragoon and Jet Set Radio last night, along with Munch's Oddysee (which I hadn't planned to buy, but it was only $5). I noticed a lot of slowdown in certain areas in JSR, but I never played it on the old Xbox so I don't know if that's how it's always been. At any rate, I'm loving the game. I was a huge fan of the original Dreamcast version, so it's great to finally play the sequel. I only played a bit of PDO but it seems like an awesome game. Munch only got a few minutes of play time too, so it's too early to say. I did enjoy the old 2D Oddworld games, so I'm hoping I'll enjoy this one as well.

I also caught up on some XBLA demos. I've always liked Gyruss, but not enough to spend $5 on it. The mini-golf game didn't hook me, and I think it's on Gametap anyway. I already have a Gametap account so it would be pointless for me to get the XBLA version. Boom Boom Rocket, however, is oddly compelling. If it was $5 I'd definitely jump on it, but $10 is a little harder to swallow. I might cave though. :lol:

Yeah I may re-purchase Panzer Dragon Orta. To be honest I got stuck at one point and I never finished it but it was gorgeous looking game(uh oh Graphics whore :D ) and generally fun to play. I see it used at Blockbuster all the time.
