US Xbox 360 BC list updated *Updated*-- Posted by XanTium on December 9 01:07 EST
From majornelson.com:

Quote

The backwards compatibility team has updated the list of original Xbox games that can be played on your Xbox 360. If you have an Xbox 360 with the HDD, and you are connected to Xbox Live, you'll automatically get a prompt to download the auto update when you toss in an original Xbox game disc. Thanks to the team for listening to the community feedback and working hard to make more titles work in BC mode. (Splinter Cell...cool!)

*UPDATE* There was a problem with Halo 2 running in wide screen mode and other games with the December BC update. The team worked through the night to fix it, so if you downloaded the version with problems, go download it again now.

See the complete list here (new entries are marked by "new" icon)

after running the update, halo 2 will only display in widescreen in 480p WS settings... 720 or 1080 will force a 4:3 frame on the 16:9 picture being displayed.. is anyone else having this problem?

I believe that lockdown was build on an entirely different engine then the other two rainbow six games (Rainbow Six 3, and Rainbow Six 3: Black Arrow).  Rainbow six: lockdown is not a part of the Rainbow Six 3 series.  The game plays and looks completely different the the other two games, and quite frankly is a POS.

They need to at least give us some Burnout 3 until Revenge hits for the 360 in March wink.gif .

Glad to see they are continually working on it though (even though they messed up Halo 2 Emu) .

Well, I guess my complaint and others to M$ got MK:Deception removed. It had horrible rendering issues in the game. Although,the Konquest mode seemed to have none of those issues.
By the way, I finally got a copy of DoA 3 back and it looks sweet in 720p WS.
I'll def try out SC:Chaos Theory now.

If you happen to have the original update file can you reapply it and roll back to the Nov BC install to get Halo 2 running in 16:9 again in 720p? Or will the Nov BC file refuse to install once the Dec BC file is installed?

I'll probably have this problem when I get home to try it, I remember half-life 2 having the same exact problem with the emulator out of the box...I wonder if they fixed that, kept reading on forums that it had horrible performance anyway...anybody know if they fixed the brightness issue, you could really noticed this with 4x3 games...screen goes to black, it's almost grey, with black bars on the side of course....I know I'm not the only one to see that, not too severe, but the black in the picture is lacking... dry.gif
