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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 ) and generally fun to play. I see it used at Blockbuster all the time.

Didn't write it down, but I'm 99% sure it was May of 2006 (bought it in early November). I do have the serial # written down.

If I could now just get the following Xbox games backwards-compatible on the 360, I'd be stoked:

- Otogi 1 & 2

- Riddick

- Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath

- Star Wars: Jedi Knight 2

- Outrun 2

- Morrowind

and the criminally under-rated
- Indiana Jones game
