What the heck? I was still waiting for Unreal Championship 2.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Man, 12 games, that's really slow progress... Well, I'm glad that they're at least continuing with the backwards compatibility. It just doesn't feel right that an Xbox 360 cannot play all original Xbox games.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

What an awful BC update. Bad Boys 2? Big Mutha Truckers? Come on guys....

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Interesting, I wonder what that means if Microsoft doesn't even accept free help to speed up the BC process.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Hard though it might be to imagine, it's entirely possible that Microsoft aren't too fucked about backwards compatability and are concentrating on other things.

Tim Shaffer is obviously pissed that Psychonauts is unable to reach an untapped market of that of Xbox 360 owners thus proving the importance of backwards compatibility.

Anyways, there's no denying that Microsoft doesn't care much about backwards compatibility and it's of course their decision in the end. However, I think they're making a mistake when they don't even accept free help to speed things up. Especially now when the 360 lineup is still so thin, in a couple of months from now it'll be meaningless.

I was speaking idiomatically.
