I'm waiting for NGB to release on Xbox Original but when it comes I can't buy just because I live in Thailand and the system said it's not available in my location? This also occurs to many DLCs like Gears of War mappack. I don't understand you release the game in Asia version but we're blocked to get that game's addon? What's wrong? This world doesn't have only America continent. You don't officially sell 360 in Thailand that's ok I want to play I have to order your games from other countries with a bit expensive but I'd love to. But why DLC on the internet also be blocked? I don't understand.

just a reminder the Xbox originals are still a ripoff, as well as the 120 gig HDD.

Hard to buy anything since both my 360's broke within 3 days of eachother,major you should be embarrassed to work for such a faulty company....but the moneys probably good enough that you just dont care.

Good games but price is way off.

Also, wouldn't it make sense to release ones that aren't backwardly compatible first? Or is that too much trouble for you greedy corporate types?

You can quite easily get hold of these games almost anywhere on disc for less than the cost of the ms points. Unless you add some achievement points, (200 or more like arcade) or extra stuff like themes and gamer pics (which are a big rip-off anyway) I can see this not being too popular.

Really excited about Ninja Gaiden and Pirates, and really liking the Originals idea so far. Long download times, but a great way to grab some game I haven't gotten around to yet.

People bringing up a good point.

Can Microsoft PLEASE include in the BC list if a game works on VGA or not? Or even better, fix them so THEY ALL work? Theres very VERY few PAL games which are not 60Hz compatible so no excuse at all. They already made BIG changes to some games such as Outrun 2006 where they removed most of the background animations compared to running on Xbox, so clearly they CAN make major changes to the code to fix emulation issues.

All my BC games (Burnout 3, Grabbed by the Ghoulies, Outrun 2006, Panzer Dragoon Orta, Shenmue II, Spyro: a Heroes Tail) work on VGA apart from Conker: Live & Reloaded. Microsoft seem to have no interest in fixing Conker either despite its incorrectly claiming to need 50Hz when it was a 60Hz compatible game. In fact, I would GLADLY BUY Conker on Originals if they made it work on VGA in the UK. My TVs HDMI and Component input looks shite due to overscanning so that is no solution when VGA looks fantastic.

Took 5 hours to download yesterday. 4pm-9pm EST (Holy tap dancing Jesus!) One of my fav games of all time - glad it is on there, but the MS servers are still a joke. Not a MS basher, but there are STILL times I cannot even log into live. That makes 9 weeks of crappy service. 1 day it is perfectly fine, the next it will not even log in. It shows friends are online but says I am not connected to live. WTF? I am on 7Mbps cable and my connection is flawless. Why am I required to pay for this? Sorry - I really had to get that off my chest. Thanks for NGB by the way.

Ninja Gaiden Black is a great game, sadly the download took very long.

Anyone know if Black and Ninja Gaiden Black will work if the 360's using a VGA cable? Crash Bandicoot doesn't, and I don't want to waste any more money on Xbox games that won't work while I have my 360 connected to a computer monitor...
