December 2006 Backward Compatibility Update? *updated*
Posted by XanTium | December 12 17:19 EST

 
It looks like Microsoft updated the Backward Compatibility list today ... but took it back offline just a bit later. We're not sure why it got delayed (or why it was put online early) ... but here are the new BC titles you can expect to work soon ;)

* NEW titles: New Games: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Dead Or Alive Ultimate, Destroy All Humans!, Dynasty Warriors 4 / Shin Sangokumuso3, Evil Dead: A Fistful of Boomstick, Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy, Family Guy, Far Cry: Instincts, Incredibles/ Mr. Incredible, I-Ninja, Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, MotoGP, Open Season, Pariah, Psychonauts,  Rainbow Six: Lockdown, Rapala Pro Fishing, Scarface, Shark Tale, Shenmue II, Splinter Cell: Double Agent, The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, Ultimate Spider-Man, Wakeboarding Unleashed: Featuring Sean Murray, Whacked!, Winback 2: Project Poseidon, Xiaolin Showdown
* UPDATED title: Burnout 3: Takedown

UPDATE: Joystiq contacted Microsoft asking why the updated list was quickly removed:

However, when asked about the exact release date of this December update, Microsoft warned us that the list is not final. "We'll have more news soon -- as I'm sure you're aware with any software development, things can change at any time so we want to make an announcement when we're sure we've got the final, solid list."

Good that Shenmue II is on there, still want MGS 2: Substance.  Hoping it won't have the slowdown in the rain.

Still no Nascar on there.  It is the only game that my younger brother plays.  He has to hook up the old POS to get it to work.

I hope Microsoft gets smacked hard for being so slow at this..
