Sorry Sega fans there are no signs of Panzer Dragoon Orta, Shenmue 2 or Jet Set Radio Future in the list. The additional 21 games that are now backwards compatible with the Xbox 360 aren’t exactly the most exciting titles. On the plus side there’s Doom 3, Lego Star Wars and the Xbox exclusive Grabbed by the Ghoulies on the list. Dreamfall: The Longest Journey is an interesting addition, the game has a story worth playing through. On the other hand the list has only a few Xbox exclusives and if you subtract PC versions there are even less Xbox only games on the list. Check below for the full list.
1.  4×4 EVO 2
2.  Amped 2
3.  Bad Boys 2
4.  Big Mutha Truckers
5.  DOOM 3
6.  Dreamfall: The Longest Journey
7.  Fatal Frame
8.  FlatOut
9.  Grabbed by the Ghoulies
10. Intellivision Lives
11. LEGO Star Wars
12. Minority Report
13. MLB SlugFest 20-04
14. The Punisher
15. RalliSport Challenge
16. Silent Hill 4: The Room
17. Spawn Armageddon
18. Spider-Man
19. Star Wars Battlefront
20. State of Emergency
21. Zapper
Japan isn’t forgotten in the update, they have a few additional titles added to their backwards compatibility list such as:
1. Bistro Cupid
2. Flight Academy
3. Othello Seminar
4. Igo Seminar
5. Shogi Seminar
6. Mahjong Seminar
Bistro Cupid is an interesting choice it’s branded as a dating game, but it adds in restaurant management too.
The update is live now so download it if you have a copy of Amped 2 or Fatal Frame in your Xbox library.
