More dusty Xbox games are being dragged out of the CVG cupboard this morning as Microsoft rolls out a surprise Xbox 360 backwards compatibility update - and there's some real gems in there.
Sega favourites Panzer Dragoon Orta and Jet Set Radio Future are the most notable names on the list, while Pandemic's Mercenaries, Unreal Championship 2 and Oddworld: Much's Odyssey are also sure to please many.
There's still a few games we're impatiently waiting for MS to tinker for Xbox 360. Where's Chronicles or Riddick? Here's hoping it arrives in the next update.
