4 original XBOX games so far. Hopefully this is a warm-up to backward compatibility when the Helix launches and plays both console and PC games.

Missing Munch's Odyssey but those were basically the OG release games .

I used to frick with Crimson Skies hard. Man was it satisfying playing the Chicago map and nosediving down into the city and weaving through the buildings until the person chasing you crashed.

Crimson Skies and Fusion Frenzy

That’s a throwback right there.

Yea, that "Fusion Frenzy!" sound for the title screen of that game is forever lodged in my brain

I still remember the first time I played it was on a demo disc that I think came with the game Brute Force.

ETA: Brute Force came in 2003, so might not be right.

Interesting discussion on this plan (or not) from the DF guys.

Brute Force.


Thats the game where you are a group of people and you can change from one character to another right? I remember it being hyped up when it came out.

It was hyped up for so long after countless delays and then it ended up being shite. Even as a kid I was like "damn this is arse" and I was pretty tolerant of bad games back then

I recall an advertisement insert or maybe even on the back of the Halo manual for it. Boy did that game suck.
